Your data service configuration might not be supported if you do not adhere to these requirements.
Use the requirements in this section to plan the installation and configuration of Sun Cluster HA for Oracle. These requirements apply to Sun Cluster HA for Oracle only. You must meet these requirements before you proceed with your Sun Cluster HA for Oracle installation and configuration. Sun Cluster HA for Oracle can be configured to run in non-global zones if required. If you are configuring Sun Cluster HA for Oracle to run in a non-global zone, you must use a highly available local file system.
Raw devices from Sun Cluster device groups are not supported in non-global zones.
For requirements that apply to all data services, see Configuration Guidelines for Sun Cluster Data Services in Sun Cluster Data Services Planning and Administration Guide for Solaris OS.
Oracle application files – These files include Oracle binaries, configuration files, and parameter files. You can install these files either on the local file system, the highly available local file system, or on the cluster file system.
See Configuration Guidelines for Sun Cluster Data Services in Sun Cluster Data Services Planning and Administration Guide for Solaris OS for the advantages and disadvantages of placing the Oracle binaries on the local file system, highly available local file system, and the cluster file system.
Database-related files – These files include the control file, redo logs, and data files. You must install these files on either raw devices or as regular files on the highly available local or cluster file system. Raw devices from Sun Cluster device groups are not supported in non-global zones.
