Adding new VG

[santy1]

I want t o add new VG to my existing two node cluster. here are the steps if i miss something please suggest me..

halt pkg's

halt cluster

#vgexport –pvs -m /tmp/map.vgora1 /dev/vgora1 ---- on Node1

#rcp /tmp/map.vgora node2:/tmp/map.vgora # on Node1

#mkdir /dev/vgora1 # on node2

#mknod /dev/vgora1/group c 64 0x040000 # on node2

#vgimport -s -m /tmp/map.vgora1 /dev/vgora1

modify the .sh files on both the servers with the new VG and the FS as well.

Then start the CLUSTER and PKG.

But here i wnat to know how does the new VG will get into the cluster.ascii file...

please suggest.

You need to do a cmcheckconf/cmapplyconf after adding the vg to your cluster.ascii file.

friend to validate he changes the package of one schemes for another one thus you goes to have certesa that this ok the response of the VG.

[Bill Brunnler]

Are you goung to add the VG to an exsisting package ?

Is this in a RAC cluster?

[Kevin Wright]

you do not need to halt un-affected pkg's or the cluster.
