We're running a 3-node RAC and many of our scripts use the GV$ views or the
DBA_HIST_* views so we can centralize the reporting for all instances on one
node. Granted some information may not be available as readily that way but it
keeps us from moving scripts around or having another location to manage.
My two cents.

Subject: Looking for suggestions regarding cluster filesystems for linux
We have a 4 node Linux RHEL5 cluster with an OCFS2 filesystem.
The sysadmin has installed the Oracle Grid infrastructure and configured ASM.
The current plan is to install Oracle RDBMS on each node of the cluster. I
don't have a problem with that.
We do, however, have a ton of scripts, which in turn generate a lot of logs
and reports, and will get run on the node where the database is running.
Currently, if we have 16 databases, 4 on each node, the output for 1 report for
each database will end up on one of the 4 nodes. If we need to change a script
or add a new script, we need to do the same thing 4 times. We can keep the
files
in sync across the nodes via rsync, but it would be so much easier if we could
have a shared filesystem for our scripts.
The current plan is to use NFS to mount a shared filesystem, but I'm wondering
if there are any other suggestions that anyone has. Do others have nothing but
databases on clustered systems, or do you also have users on these systems and
thus need to deal with the same issue?
