HP Serviceguard Extension for RAC (SGeRAC) Configuring Oracle to Use Oracle Disk Manager Library

IMPORTANT: Beginning with HP Serviceguard Storage Management Suite (SMS) Version A.04.00.00, /opt/VRTSodm/lib/libodm.sl is changed to /opt/VRTSodm/lib/ libodm.so on itanium(IA) architecture.

If you are using itanium architecture and HP Serviceguard SMS Version A.04.00.00 or later, then you must use /opt/VRTSodm/lib/libodm.so file instead of /opt/VRTSodm/lib/ libodm.sl file.

#ll -L /opt/VRTSodm/lib/libodm.sl

output: -r-xr-xr-x 1 root sys 94872 Aug 25 2009 /opt/VRTSodm/lib/libodm.sl

Configuring Oracle to Use Oracle Disk Manager Library

NOTE: The following steps are specific to CFS 4.1 or later.

1.Login as a Oracle user.

2.Shutdown database.

3.Link the Oracle Disk Manager library into Oracle home. For Oracle 10g on HP 9000 Systems:

$ rm ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib/libodm10.sl

$ ln -s /opt/VRTSodm/lib/libodm.sl ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib/libodm10.sl

For Oracle 10g on Integrity Systems:

$ rm ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib/libodm10.so

$ ln -s /opt/VRTSodm/lib/libodm.sl ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib/libodm10.so

For Oracle 11g on HP 9000 Systems:

$ rm ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib/libodm11.sl

$ ln -s /opt/VRTSodm/lib/libodm.sl ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib/libodm11.sl

For Oracle 11g on Integrity Systems:

$ rm ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib/libodm11.so

$ ln -s /opt/VRTSodm/lib/libodm.sl ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib/libodm11.so

4.Start Oracle database.

Verify that Oracle Disk Manager is Running

NOTE: The following steps are specific to CFS 4.1 or later.

1.Start the cluster and Oracle database (if not already started).

2.Check that the Oracle instance is using the Oracle Disk Manager function:

#cat /dev/odm/stats
