How to Install Sun Cluster Support for Oracle Parallel Server/Real Application Clusters Packages

1. Load the Sun Java Enterprise System Accessory CD Volume 3 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/cdrom0/components/SunCluster_Oracle_RAC/Solaris_8/Packages

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

     # cd /cdrom/cdrom0/components/SunCluster_Oracle_RAC/Solaris_9/Packages

4. On each cluster node that can run Sun Cluster Support for Oracle Parallel Server/Real Application Clusters, transfer the contents of the required software packages from the CD-ROM to the node.

   The required software packages depend on the storage management scheme that you are using.

   • If you are using VxVM with the cluster feature, run the following command:

     # pkgadd -d . SUNWscucm SUNWudlm SUNWudlmr SUNWcvmr SUNWcvm

   • If you are using hardware RAID support, run the following command:

     # pkgadd -d . SUNWscucm SUNWudlm SUNWudlmr SUNWschwr

   • If you are using the cluster file system, run the following command:

     # 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 UDLM. Also verify that you have correctly installed your volume manager packages. If you plan to use VxVM, check that you have installed the software and check that the license for the VxVM cluster feature is valid. Otherwise, a panic will occur.
