<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It is STRONLY recommended do not use OCFSv2 for CRS
and OCR files. Just create 2 partitions, 1 - 105 MB for OCRFile , and 1 - 22 MB
for CSSFIle,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>make them raw using raw script (check with the
docs, Oracle promise to make it work without raw) and use them in
CRS.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If using OCFSv2, you must use datavolume mounting
option, which is not supported in all versions.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Before it all, make a sanity checks:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- on node 1</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> echo 1234 > a</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- on node 2</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> cat a</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> echo 3456 > a</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- on node 1</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> cat a</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>and be sure that it all works.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>When posting here, always specify:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- Linux version</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- how do you install ocfsv2 (comes with the system
or added by rpm or compile yourself)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- at least, output of rpm -qa | grep
ocfs</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Why OCFSv2 is not good for OCR and CSS Files - in
short:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- OCR and CSS Files are control files for the
Oracle cluster (CRS). CRS runs heartbeat, check cluster consistency and
quorum,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>makes decisions to self-fence node and so
on.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- OCFSv2 is cluster too. It makes the same job,
independently.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>When you mix 2 clusters together, it may cause
insonsistent (suboptimal) decisions. In addition, make OCR and CSS Files on
raw partition is pretty simple and harmless. IN addition, OCFSv2 have some
instabilities and timeouts, and CRS have it's own timeouts - and this timeouts
are not adjusted one to others.</FONT></DIV>
