Dear listers, I am currently reading up on Grid Plug And Play but don't have a matching 11.2 cluster at hand right now. I would like to understand the full format of the profile.xml file better. According to the documentation it is used to store configuration information about the cluster thus decoupling state from the individual node. I really like the concept but my profile.xml seems not to have all the information filled in (my cluster doesn't use GNS et al). The file I'm after is in $GRID_HOME/gpnp/<hostname>/profile/peer/profile.xml. Thanks a lot in advance!
