Veritas Storage Foundation 5.1 SP1 for Oracle RAC Release Notes (5900-1513, April 2011)

Stopping VCS does not unregister port f from GAB membership
In an SF Oracle RAC cluster with all the CFS resources under VCS control, when
you stop VCS, all the CFS resources must go down cleanly and CFS must unregister
port f from GAB membership. Oracle RAC 10g Clusterware does not clean up all
its processes when it is stopped. Now, when you stop VCS, all the CFS resources
go down. However, due to the left over Oracle processes, CFS does not unregister
port f from GAB membership.
Workaround: Perform the following steps to bring down port f.
To bring down port f
1
Kill all the Oracle processes.
# kill -9 'ps -u oracle|awk '{print $1}'`
2
Verify that all CFS file systems are unmounted.
# mount | grep cluster
3
Unregister port f from GAB membership.
# fsclustadm cfsdeinit
DBED features are not integrated with GCO
DBED features are not integrated with Global Cluster Option (GCO). After GCO
migration, be aware that DBED features will not be functional. [1241070]
Issue with format of the last 8-bit number in private IP
addresses
The PrivNIC/MultiPrivNIC resources fault if the private IP addresses have a leading
0 in any of the octets that comprise the IP address, for example X.X.X.01 or
X.X.0X.1. or X.0X.X.1 or 0X.X.X.1, where X is an octet of the IP address. [1164506]
When you configure private IP addresses for Oracle Clusterware, ensure that the
IP addresses have a format as displayed in the following two-node example:
■ On galaxy: 192.168.12.1
■ On nebula: 192.168.12.2
Confirm the correct format by viewing the PrivNIC or MultiPrivNIC resource in
the /etc/VRTSvcs/conf/config/main.cf file.
