5. Creating a Cluster File System
The following table lists the tasks that you perform to configure Solaris Volume Manager software for Oracle Solaris Cluster configurations. Complete the procedures in the order that is indicated.
Table 4-1 Task Map: Configuring Solaris Volume Manager Software
|
Perform this procedure on each node in the global cluster.
Use the physical name (cNtXdY sZ), not the device-ID name (dN), to specify the slices to use.
phys-schost# metadb -af slice-1 slice-2 slice-3
Tip - To provide protection of state data, which is necessary to run Solaris Volume Manager software, create at least three replicas for each node. Also, you can place replicas on more than one device to provide protection if one of the devices fails.
See the metadb(1M) man page and your Solaris Volume Manager documentation for details.
phys-schost# metadb
The metadb command displays the list of replicas.
Example 4-1 Creating State Database Replicas
The following example shows three state database replicas. Each replica is created on a different device.
phys-schost# metadb -af c0t0d0s7 c0t1d0s7 c1t0d0s7 phys-schost# metadb flags first blk block count a u 16 8192 /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s7 a u 16 8192 /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s7 a u 16 8192 /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s7
Next Steps
Go to Creating Disk Sets in a Cluster to create Solaris Volume Manager disk sets.
