Please advise me, if any one implemented ASM in server HA environments
with VCS,HP Service guard or suncluster w/o RACE.
...as a former Engineer in the Veritas Database Editions Group, I think
the best advice I can give you is to ask Veritas (um, Symmantec) if
they have a VCS Oracle Agent that knows anything at all about ASM.
Any HA (VCS, MC/SG,HACMP,Matrix Server HA, etc) will have to take the
responsibility of starting the ASM instance before the real instance (
the one you actually care about).
Honestly, I think the whole thing sounds like a mess. ASM is a
collection
of raw partitions. With HA, the failover agent will have to ensure the
raw partitions are accessible after the failover (unless you picked up
CVM from the Foundation Suite smorgasbord too). If you are using ASM on
CVM, then I'd really have to ask "why".
