1) Docs are for both RHEL and SLES.
2) Try to use docs from http://www.suse.com/oracle, they are specific for
SuSe.
3) hangcheck-timer is part of SLES10.
4) Oracle RAC configure it itself, you should not worry about this module.

Subject: [suse-oracle] RAC 10g2 SLES10: hangcheck-timer, asmlib, ocfs2 and
heartbeat


> Hi list,
>
> the RAC installation docs I found on OTN or the docs from "RAC for
> Administrators" course at Oracle University, are for RedHat 3.0 or
> higher . They use the hangcheck-timer kernel module, which is not part
> of SLES 10. Is it really needed on SLES10 ?
> The hangcheck-timer site
> (http://oss.oracle.com/projects/hangcheck-timer/dist/documentation/README)
> says it was integrated in kernels 2.5. How can it be configured ? The
> vmware 2 node installation is more 'lazy' so I would like to set higher
> values for it.

> Maybe this is not related to hangcheck-timer module:
> the ocfs2 installation , when configuring O2CB driver also asks about
> kernel or userspace heartbeat method. Does that mean I have to install
> and configure the heartbeat system ? Do you have any clues ?
>
> Maybe I should put 3 different entries in the list ? So threads should
> be more consistent?

> Thanks in advance !
