Veritas Storage Foundation 5.1 SP1 Cluster File System Installation Guide (5900-1510, April 2011)

■ Verify the shared storage on the secondary site supports SCSI-3
reservations.
■ Set up coordinator disks
■ Configure I/O fencing
For instructions for setting up fencing:
See “About planning to configure I/O fencing” on page 88.
6
For a single-node cluster, do not enable I/O fencing. Fencing will run in
disabled mode.
7
Prepare systems and storage for a global cluster. Identify the hardware and
storage requirements before installing your database software.
You will need to set up:
■ Local storage for database software
■ Shared storage for resources which are not replicated
■ Replicated storage for database files
8
Install and configure the database binaries. Consult your database
documentation.
Note: Resources which will not be replicated must be on non-replicated shared
storage.
After successful database installation and configuration, verify that database
resources are up on all nodes.
Setting up the database for the secondary site
To set up the database for the secondary site
1
Do not create the database. The database will be replicated from the primary
site.
■ If you are using hardware-based replication, the database, disk group, and
volumes will be replicated from the primary site.
Create the directory for the CFS mount point which will host the database
data and control files.
■ If you are using VVR for replication, create an identical disk group and
volumes for the replicated content with the same names and size as listed
on the primary site.
