CVM diskgroup activation

Bruno Bossier_1 — Fri, 24 Sep 2004 02:03:52 GMT

I have a 2-node Serviceguard cluster with an Oracle RAC.

How can I make sure that my shared diskgroups created through CVM (vxdg -s init dg) can have their activation set to sw permanently ? I can manually set it via the vxdg command, but I would like to be sure that after a reboot this is automatically set.

I know that this is handled via a cluster package, but as this is not required for Oracle RAC, I did not create them. Should I create one, just to be sure that the activation is set properly ?

I am sure this can be done using vxedit command.

Hmm ... just checked man page for vxedit but no activation parameter possible.

I created a package on each node which activates the CVM_DG's with sharedwrite. This solved the problem.
