How to Register and Configure the Support for Oracle RAC Framework Resource Group by Using clsetup

When you register and configure the Support for Oracle RAC framework resource group for a cluster, the Support for Oracle RAC framework resource group is created.

Perform this procedure during your initial setup of Support for Oracle RAC. Perform this procedure from one node only.

Before You Begin

    Ensure that the following prerequisites are met:

  • All preinstallation tasks for Support for Oracle RAC are completed.

  • The Oracle Solaris Cluster nodes are prepared.

  • The data services packages are installed.

    Ensure that you have the following information:

  • The names of the nodes where you require Support for Oracle RAC to run.

  1. Assume the root role on any cluster node.
  2. Start the clsetup utility.
    # clsetup

    The clsetup main menu is displayed.

  3. Choose the menu item, Data Services.

    The Data Services menu is displayed.

  4. Choose the menu item, Oracle Real Application Clusters.

    The clsetup utility displays information about Support for Oracle RAC.

  5. Press Return to continue.

    The clsetup utility prompts you to select whether you are performing the initial configuration of Support for Oracle RAC or administering an existing configuration.


    Note -  The clsetup utility currently allows ongoing administration of an Oracle RAC framework running only in the global cluster. For ongoing administration of a Support for Oracle RAC framework configured in a zone cluster, you need to instead use the Oracle Solaris Cluster maintenance commands.
  6. Choose the menu item, Support for Oracle RAC Create Configuration.

    The clsetup utility prompts you to select the Support for Oracle RAC cluster location. This location can be the global cluster or a zone cluster.

  7. Type the option number for the location of the Support for Oracle RAC cluster and press Return.
    • If you select the global cluster option, the clsetup utility displays the list of components of Support for Oracle RAC to configure. Skip to Step 11.
    • If you select the zone cluster option, the clsetup utility prompts you to select the required zone cluster. Proceed to Step 10.
  8. Type the option number for the required zone cluster and press Return.

    The clsetup utility displays a list of components of Support for Oracle RAC to configure.

  9. Choose the menu item, RAC Framework Resource Group.

    The clsetup utility displays the list of prerequisites for performing this task.

  10. Verify that the prerequisites are met, and press Return.

    The clsetup utility displays a list of the cluster nodes on which the Support for Oracle RAC packages are installed.

  11. Select the nodes where you require Support for Oracle RAC to run.
    • To accept the default selection of all listed nodes in an arbitrary order, type a and press Return.
    • To select a subset of the listed nodes, type a comma-separated or space-separated list of the option numbers for the nodes you choose and press Return.

      Ensure that the nodes are listed in the order in which the nodes are to appear in the Oracle RAC framework resource group's node list.

    • To select all nodes in a particular order, type a comma-separated or space-separated ordered list of the option numbers for the nodes you choose and press Return.

      Ensure that the nodes are listed in the order in which the nodes are to appear in the Oracle RAC framework resource group's node list.

  12. If needed to end the selection of nodes, type d and press Return.

    The clsetup utility displays the names of the Oracle Solaris Cluster objects that the utility will create.

  13. If you require a different name for any Oracle Solaris Cluster objects, change the name.
    1. Type the option number for the object name to change and press Return.

      The clsetup utility displays a screen where you can specify the new name.

    2. At the New Value prompt, type the new name and press Return.

    The clsetup utility returns you to the list of the names of the Oracle Solaris Cluster objects that the utility will create.

  14. To confirm your selection of Oracle Solaris Cluster object names, type d and press Return.

    The clsetup utility displays information about the Oracle Solaris Cluster configuration that the utility will create.

  15. To create the configuration, type c and Press Return.

    The clsetup utility displays a progress message to indicate that the utility is running commands to create the configuration. When configuration is complete, the clsetup utility displays the commands that the utility ran to create the configuration.

  16. Press Return to continue.

    The clsetup utility returns you to the list of options for configuring Support for Oracle RAC.

  17. (Optional) Type q and press Return repeatedly until you quit the clsetup utility.

    If you prefer, you can leave the clsetup utility running while you perform other required tasks before using the utility again. If you choose to quit clsetup, the utility recognizes your existing Support for Oracle RAC framework resource group when you restart the utility.

  18. Determine whether the Support for Oracle RAC framework resource group and its resources are online.

    Use the clresourcegroup (1CL) utility for this purpose. By default, the clsetup utility assigns the name rac-framework-rg to the Support for Oracle RAC framework resource group.

    • In the global cluster, type the following command.
      # clresourcegroup status rac-framework-rg
    • In a zone cluster, type the following command.
      # clresourcegroup status -Z zcname rac-framework-rg
  19. If the Support for Oracle RAC framework resource group and its resources are not online, bring them online.
    • In the global cluster, type the following command.
      # clresourcegroup online -eM rac-framework-rg
    • In a zone cluster, type the following command.
      # clresourcegroup online -eM -Z zcname rac-framework-rg

Resource Configuration

The following table lists the default resource configuration that the clsetup utility creates when you complete this task.
