HP Serviceguard Extension for SAP (SGeSAP) manual

Oracle Clusterware package, the Oracle RAC database package, and the mount point and disk group packages will also be thereby established.

If a separate storage has been used for Oracle Database software, then the storage information will be populated in the package configuration so that the user is freed from having to activate the volumes, mount the file system, etc. This will be taken care of as part of the Oracle RAC database package Easy Deployment.

Parameter discovery and default parameters

By way of automatic package parameter discovery by the Easy Deployment operation, the following Oracle RAC database package attributes are automatically populated in the corresponding configuration file:

•Cluster nodes

•Oracle user

•OC-MNP package name

•OC-MNP toolkit directory

The Oracle RAC database package name parameter is initialized in the following manner:

•In a non-Metrocluster environment, this is set to rac_<dbname>_pkg.

•In a site-aware Metrocluster environment, the site_id will be appended to the package name (rac_<dbname>_pkg).

In a non-Metrocluster environment, the Oracle RAC database package working directory is set to /etc/cmcluster/rac_<dbname>_pkg/. In a site-aware Metrocluster environment, the Oracle Clusterware package working directory is set to /etc/cmcluster/rac_<dbname>_pkg_site_<site_id>/. All other package parameters will be set to default values in accordance to the latest edition of the manual Using Serviceguard Extension for RAC. Please refer to the same for more details on default package parameters.

Error and exception handling

An error message will appear in the Serviceguard Manager package Easy Deployment operation log window if the Oracle RAC DB deployment fails for one or more of the following reasons:

•A modular RAC DB package is already configured in the cluster for the Oracle database name specified by the user.

Note:

The package Easy Deployment operation will not be able to identify a legacy

RAC DB package.

Multiple Oracle Clusterware packages have been configured in the cluster.

Note:

The package Easy Deployment operation will not be able to identify a legacy

Oracle Clusterware package.

•An error occurs during deployment of the Oracle Clusterware package. As mentioned before, Oracle RAC DB package deployment auto-deploys an Oracle Clusterware package if it is not found to be pre-configured in the cluster.

•The cluster with a non-Metrocluster environment already has a non-RAC DB package configured for any other third-party application with the name rac_<dbname>_pkg; or, in a site-aware Metrocluster, a non-RAC DB package with the name rac_<dbname>_pkg_<site_id> already exists, configured for any other third-party application on a given site.

•An unexpected error occurs during the Oracle RAC DB package deployment operation.
