How to Register and Configure the Support for Oracle RAC Framework Resource Group (clsetup)


Note -  You can also use the Oracle Solaris Cluster Manager browser interface to perform this task, as well as optionally configuring resources for Oracle Clusterware and Oracle ASM. For Oracle Solaris Cluster Manager log-in instructions, see How to Access Oracle Solaris Cluster Manager in Administering an Oracle Solaris Cluster 4.4 Configuration. After you log in, click Tasks and then click Oracle Real Application Clusters to start the wizard.

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.


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.

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, verify prerequisites, and navigate to the Support for Oracle RAC configuration section.
  3. Choose the Support for Oracle RAC location.

    Follow the prompts to select either the global cluster or a zone cluster.

  4. Choose to configure the RAC Framework Resource Group.
  5. Follow the prompts in the clsetup utility to provide the following information.
    Data to Provide
    Guidelines
    Your Values
    Cluster nodes on which to run Support for Oracle RAC
    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 choose nodes, type a comma-separated or space-separated list of the option numbers for the nodes you choose.
    (Zone cluster only) Zone cluster name
  6. Confirm the object names.
    1. If you require a different name for any Oracle Solaris Cluster objects, choose the name to change and type the new name in response to the prompt.
    2. To confirm your selection of Oracle Solaris Cluster object names, type d.
  7. To create the configuration, type c.

    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.

    When the configuration process completes, you can press Return repeatedly to exit from the clsetup utility. If you prefer, you can leave the clsetup utility running while you perform other required tasks before using the utility again.

  8. Ensure that the Support for Oracle RAC framework resource group and its resources are online.
    • For the global cluster, type the following commands:

      Display the resource group status .

      # clresourcegroup status rac-framework-rg

      If needed, bring online the resource group and resources.

      # clresourcegroup online -eM rac-framework-rg
    • For a zone cluster, from the global zone type the following commands:

      Display the resource group status.

      # clresourcegroup status -Z zcname rac-framework-rg

      If needed, bring online the resource group and resources.

      # 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.
