Testing Oracle RAC on CentOS

Post by Data-Base » 2010/03/17 12:44:49

Hello,

Folleing the excelent "how-to" http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/hunter_rac10gr2_iscsi.html

My test system is CentOS 5.4 and Openfiler 2.3 going to install Oracle 10g all running in VMware ESX 4

everything seems to work OK with the installation process :)

but, I cam in page 2 to:

If you modified the O2CB heartbeat threshold, you should verify that it is set correctly::

[b]# cat /proc/fs/ocfs2_nodemanager/hb_dead_threshold
61[/b]

but I see there is nothing under [b]/fs/[/b] other than [b]/nfsd/[/b] there is no [b]/ocfs2_nodemanager/[/b] !!!!

what do I miss here?

I do not want to cuntinue farther with the setup before I solve this issue (understand it)

cheers

Note: I asked this question in [url=http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=4170737]Oracle's Forums[/url] too

Sorry for my question but did you reboot and verify OCFS2 mount ?
and BTW the manual was written and tested with [url=http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/hunter_rac10gr2_iscsi.html#6]Oracle Linux[/url]
[quote]This guide is designed to work with Oracle Enterprise Linux Release 5[/quote]
you may find this manual that was tested with CentOS 4
