OCFS2

Sissejuhatus

OCFS2 is the next generation of the Oracle Cluster File System for Linux. It allows you to mount volumes on different hosts at the same time. It is an extent based, POSIX compliant file system. OCFS2 is a general-purpose file system that can be used for shared Oracle home installations making management of Oracle Real Application Cluster (RAC) installations even easier. Among the new features and benefits are:

Node and architecture local files using Context Dependent Symbolic Links (CDSL) Network based pluggable DLM Improved journaling / node recovery using the Linux Kernel "JBD" subsystem Improved performance of meta-data operations (space allocation, locking, etc). Improved data caching / locking (for files such as oracle binaries, libraries, etc)

Redhat

Installimine on lihtne, eriti RedHatiga ;)

Vaadake, millise kerneli jaoks ka tõmbate ;)

Kes tahab sortsust kokku lasta, siis selleks ka võimalus

Et kõik moodulid masina buutimisel üles laetakse, tuleb käivitada

/etc/init.d/o2cb configure
/etc/init.d/o2cb load
chkconfig ocfs2 on
chkconfig o2cb on

Oracle on valmis teinud ka kena GUI "ocfs2console", võimalusel kasutage seda

Kõigepealt teeme klastri, lisame masinad

confifailid asuvad /etc/ocfs2/cluster.conf ja /etc/sysconfig/o2cb

Paigaldamine

echo "sys-fs/ocfs2-tools ~amd64" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
emerge -av sys-fs/ocfs2-tools

Konfigureerimine

cat /etc/ocfs2/cluster.conf 

node:
        ip_port = 7777
        ip_address = 192.168.0.31
        number = 0
        name = Tweedledum
        cluster = ocfs2_xen

node:
        ip_port = 7777
        ip_address = 192.168.0.32
        number = 1
        name = Tweedledee
        cluster = ocfs2_xen

cluster:
        node_count = 2
        name = ocfs2_test

Now we must tell the init script which cluster must be started. File: /etc/conf.d/ocfs2

OCFS2_CLUSTER="ocfs2_test"

PS: Juhul kui conf.d faili ei muutnud tuleb anda täiendav käsk /etc/init.d/o2cb online cluster

ocfs2 failisüsteemi tegemiseks kettale on käsk mkfs.ocfs2, võib GUI-s

et mountida ketast võib kasutada GUI'd või mount -t ocfs2 /dev/xxx /xxx või kõik ocfs2 kettad mount -at ocfs2

# mkfs.ocfs2 -N 2 -L ocfs2_test /dev/sda

N 2 võti näitab mitu masinat osaleb clustris

# rc-update add ocfs2 default

# mount /dev/sda /srv/

Ja teises nodes ka teenus startida ja mountida

# /etc/init.d/o2cb status cluster

Kui mõlemas masinas ettevalmistused tehtud, siis polegi midagi muud jäänud kui:

/etc/init.d/o2cb online ocfs2

alati saab ka staatust vaadata

/etc/init.d/o2cb status

Kui klaster on confitud buutimisel laadima, saab klastrit startida/peatada /etc/init.d/o2cb start/stop
