Starting The Lock Servers; Creating And Mounting Gfs File Systems - Red Hat GFS 6.0 - INSTALLING AND CONFIGURING ORACLE9I RAC Manual

Chapter 2. Installing and Configuring GFS

2.5. Starting the Lock Servers

Starting the lock servers consists of running
1. Run
lock_gulmd
lock2, and lock3):
rac1 # lock_gulmd
rac2 # lock_gulmd
rac3 # lock_gulmd
rac4 # lock_gulmd
lock1 # lock_gulmd
lock2 # lock_gulmd
lock3 # lock_gulmd
2. Proceed to Section 2.6 Creating and Mounting GFS File Systems.

2.6. Creating and Mounting GFS File Systems

The procedure in this section describes how to create and mount GFS file systems using the GFS pools
,
oracle_base oraundo
raw devices to the GFS pools
1. Create GFS file systems as follows:
rac1 # gfs_mkfs -p lock_gulm -t gfsrac:oracle_base -j 4 /dev/pool/oracle_base
rac1 # gfs_mkfs -p lock_gulm -t gfsrac:oraundo -j 4 /dev/pool/oraundo
rac1 # gfs_mkfs -p lock_gulm -t gfsrac:oraindex -j 4 /dev/pool/oraindex
rac1 # gfs_mkfs -p lock_gulm -t gfsrac:oradata -j 4 /dev/pool/oradata
Note
The file systems need only be created from one node in the cluster.
2. Make mount points for the file systems on each node that mounts the file systems. Example 2-14
shows making mount points on node rac1:
rac1 # cd /mnt
rac1 # mkdir oracle_base oraundo oraindex oradata
Example 2-14. Making Mount Points on node rac1
3. Mount the GFS file systems on each node in the cluster that accesses GFS file systems.
Example 2-15 shows mounting the GFS file systems on node rac1:
rac1 # mount -t gfs /dev/pool/oracle_base /mnt/oracle_base
rac1 # mount -t gfs /dev/pool/oraundo /mnt/oraundo
rac1 # mount -t gfs /dev/pool/oraindex /mnt/oraindex
rac1 # mount -t gfs /dev/pool/oradata /mnt/oradata
Example 2-15. Mounting the GFS File Systems on Node rac1
lock_gulmd
on the GFS nodes (rac1, rac2, rac3, rac4) and the lock-server nodes (lock1,
, , and
oraindex oradata
and
oraraw1 oraraw2
at each node as follows:
. In addition, the procedure describes how to bind
