How to Add a Volume Manager Resource to the SUNW.vucmm_framework Resource Group

Perform this task if you are adding a volume manager to an existing configuration of Support for Oracle RAC. The SUNW.vucmm_framework resource group must contain a resource that represents the volume manager that you are adding. You can add a volume manager resource only if the framework resource is disabled and if the framework daemon is stopped on all cluster nodes.

---

Caution  -  This task requires downtime because you must disable the framework resource and reboot the nodes where Support for Oracle RAC is running.

---

Before You Begin

Ensure that the volume manager for which you are adding a resource is installed and configured on all nodes where Support for Oracle RAC is to run.

1. Assume the root role on any cluster node.
2. Disable the framework resource in the framework resource group and any other resources that depend on this resource.

   # clresource disable -r fmwk-rs

   fmwk-rs

   Specifies the name of the resource of type SUNW.vucmm_framework that you are disabling.

3. Reboot all the nodes that are in the node list of the framework resource group.
4. Register and add an instance of the resource type that represents the volume manager that you are adding.
   • If you are adding Solaris Volume Manager for Sun Cluster, register and add the instance as follows:
     1. Register the Solaris Volume Manager for Sun Cluster resource type.

        # clresourcetype register SUNW.vucmm_svm

     2. Add an instance of the Solaris Volume Manager for Sun Cluster resource type to the framework resource group.

        Ensure that this instance depends on the resource that you disabled in Step 2.

        # clresource create -g fmwk-rg \
        -t svm-rt \
        -p resource_dependencies=fmwk-rs svm-rs

        –g fmwk-rg

        Specifies the name of the framework resource group. This resource group contains the resource of type SUNW.vucmm_framework that you disabled in Step 2.

        svm-rt

        Specifies the name of the Solaris Volume Manager for Sun Cluster resource type.

        –p resource_dependencies=fmwk-rs

        Specifies that this instance depends on the resource that you disabled in Step 2.

        svm-rs

        Specifies the name that you are assigning to the resource of type SUNW.vucmm_svm.

5. Bring online and in a managed state the framework resource group and its resources.

   # clresourcegroup online -M fmwk-rg

   fmwk-rg

   Specifies that the framework resource group is to be moved to the MANAGED state and brought online. This resource group contains the resource that you disabled in Step 2.
