When I was working with 10gCRS+VCS - we disabled autostart of CRS resources
that we wanted to control from VCS. We than had to write our own VCS agents
that monitored status of resources based on CRS command line utilities This
is the approach Oracle was ready to support after somewhat long discussions.

Regarding support requesting to reproduce the problem without vendor
clusterware. I didn't experience that but I can believe this might be a
dirty trick of support.
Just an example - at some point we even got together on the "round table"
with support from 3 sides - Veritas, HP and Oracle. Of course, that's won't
happen for regular issues and relatively small customers but big enterprises
can get enough support if they know where to push.

Hi All

I installed this week RAC on Veritas SFRAC.

Had a problem though.In preinstallation I forgot to copy SFRAC library!
Skiped this step

cp /opt/VRTSvcs/rac/lib/libskgxn2_64.so /opt/ORCLcluster/lib/libskgxn2.so

What is that library for? I made a symbolic link afterwards to
$ORA_CRS_HOME/lib, is that enough?

Another question is should I make these CRS Resources

NAME=ora.rac1020.db
TYPE=application
TARGET=ONLINE
STATE=ONLINE on rac1

NAME=ora.rac1020.rac10201.inst
TYPE=application
TARGET=ONLINE
STATE=ONLINE on rac1

NAME=ora.rac1020.rac10202.inst
TYPE=application
TARGET=ONLINE
STATE=OFFLINE

From TARGET=ONLINE to OFFLINE so when the server reboots CRS wont attempt
to start them? So Veritas Cluster will do it? I got this information from
Metalink Note 332257.1, where it says


4. Can Oracle Clusterware be configured to not auto-start some Oracle resources

TIA

Alex


at node boot time?
