RE: [suse-oracle] ASMlib on SLES10

Hi,

I am not sure if raw is mandatory, just set the "ASM_DISKSTRING" parameter in the ASM spfile and all the matching devices will be ASM candidates.

However ideally with raw, you can create a raw for each device and put the raw devices in

/dev/oraraw

Then you have ASM_DISKSTRING=/dev/oraraw

i.e :

mkdir -p /dev/oraraw/
rm -f /dev/oraraw/*

mknod /dev/oraraw/raw_vot_1 c 162 1
mknod /dev/oraraw/raw_vot_2 c 162 2
mknod /dev/oraraw/raw_vot_3 c 162 3
mknod /dev/oraraw/raw_ocr_1 c 162 4
mknod /dev/oraraw/raw_ocr_2 c 162 5

raw /dev/oraraw/raw_vot_1 /dev/sde1
raw /dev/oraraw/raw_vot_2 /dev/sdf1
raw /dev/oraraw/raw_vot_3 /dev/sdg1
raw /dev/oraraw/raw_ocr_1 /dev/sdh1
raw /dev/oraraw/raw_ocr_2 /dev/sdi1

Best Regards

Yann.

Hello Fabricio,



Yes, I read about ASMlib is not needed but then I must use raw device, or not?

Hello Jorge,
I don't think the ASMlib are ready for the SLES10 kernel yet.
However you don't need them for your ASM.

ASMlib are not really necessary (and personally I prefer not to use them).

Hi everyone,



We are installing a RAC cluster of two nodes on SLES 10 hosted in a Vmware Server 1.0.1 in a SLES10 linux system.

We have the two nodes ready to start RAC installation and we plan to use ASM storage for database and quorum file.

How can we configure ASMlib and from where can we download rpm package or source package? The idea is not to use raw devices.

In OTN I see rpm's for SLES9 but no sources.



Thanks, and excuse my poor english.
