How to Install Sun Cluster Support for Oracle Parallel Server/Real Application Clusters Packages With the Cluster File System

Information on how to install Sun Cluster Support for Oracle Parallel Server/Real Application Clusters packages with the cluster file system is missing from “Installing Volume Management Software With Sun Cluster Support for Oracle Parallel Server/Real Application Clusters” in Sun Cluster 3.1 Data Service for Oracle Parallel Server/Real Application Clusters.

To complete this procedure, you need the Sun Cluster CD-ROM. Perform this procedure on all of the cluster nodes that can run Sun Cluster Support for Oracle Parallel Server/Real Application Clusters.

Due to the preparation that is required prior to installation, the scinstall(1M) utility does not support automatic installation of the data service packages.

1. Load the Sun Cluster CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.

2. Become superuser.

3. Change the current working directory to the directory that contains the packages for the version of the Solaris operating environment that you are using.

   • If you are using Solaris 8, run the following command:

     # cd /cdrom/suncluster_3_1/SunCluster_3.1/Sol_8/Packages

   • If you are using Solaris 9, run the following command:

     # cd /cdrom/suncluster_3_1/SunCluster_3.1/Sol_9/Packages

4. On each node of the cluster, transfer the contents of the required software packages from the CD-ROM to the node.

   # pkgadd -d . SUNWscucm SUNWudlm SUNWudlmr

Before you reboot the nodes, you must ensure that you have correctly installed and configured the Oracle UDLM software. For more information, see “Installing the Oracle Software” in Sun Cluster 3.1 Data Service for Oracle Parallel Server/Real Application Clusters.

Where to Go From Here

Go to “Installing the Oracle Software” in Sun Cluster 3.1 Data Service for Oracle Parallel Server/Real Application Clusters to install the Oracle UDLM and Oracle RDBMS software.
