Documentation Addendum

This section discusses errors or omissions for documentation, online help, or man pages in the Oracle Solaris Cluster 3.3 5/11 release.

Man Pages

This section discusses errors, omissions, and additions in the Oracle Solaris Cluster man pages.

clnasdevice(1CL)

The clnasdevice(1CL) man page contains the incorrect name for the sun_uss NAS device type. The man page uses Oracle's Sun Storage 7000 Unified Storage Systems as the NAS device name, but the correct name is Oracle's Sun ZFS Storage Appliance. The man page is also missing some information. See clnasdevice(1CL) Man Page for the correct contents of this man page.

clzonecluster(1CL)

If the name_service property is not specified when you create a zone cluster, a value for the property is pulled from the /etc/sysidcfg file in the global zone. However, because this information might be stale, always specify the name_service property when creating a zone cluster. To reflect this behavior, the description of the name_service property is changed to the following:

name_service

This property specifies the naming service to be used in the zone cluster. It is an optional property, and the setting in the global zone is used by default. However, the settings in the global zone's /etc/sysidcfg file might be stale. To ensure that this property has the correct setting, enter the value manually by using the clzonecluster command.

The description of the timezone property is also revised as follows:

timezone

This property specifies the time zone to be used in the zone cluster. The value is obtained from the environment of the clzonecluster command by default.

SUNW.oracle_server(5)

The following new value for the Standby_mode extension property is missing from the man page:

SNAPSHOT

Beginning with Oracle 11g, specifies a snapshot standby database.

SUNW.scalable_acfs_proxy(5)

Support for Oracle ACFS with Oracle Solaris Cluster 3.3 5/11 introduces a new resource type, SUNW.scalable_acfs_proxy. The man page for this resource type is not included in this release. See SUNW.scalable_acfs_proxy(5) Man Page for the contents of this man page.
