CAN REDHAT CLUSTER CO-EXIST WITH OCFS FOR APPLICATION CLUSTERING

We have an existing, operational 10.2.0.3 RAC configuration running w/OCFS2 and ASM on Redhat AS 4. A shared filesystem was requested to be created on the two rac nodes and shared via Samba to a Windows server. OCFS2 does not supply a floating vip for automatic failover so the Linux techs are wanting to install RedHat Cluster to provide this functionality. Can the Redhat cluster co-exist with OCFS and what limitations/problems might we encounter? And is there another solution that we have not thought of??

Has anyone in your organization read anything about RAC?
ASM and OCFS have absolutely nothing to do with VIPS. VIPs are defined in /etc/host and in tnsnames.ora ... they are networking parameters not storage parameters.
They want to install RedHat cluster? I'd see if I could get a court restraining order to keep their hands off the servers until they read the documentation. Good grief!
If you can't find the RAC docs email me off-line. Reading your post was like reading about a train wreck that is going to happen in the near future.

    What I dislike after a week is makepkg not handling dependencies automatically (which would be overhead, so probably not appropriate).

  • Can I buy a headset with microphone for my 13" MACBOOK PRO?

    There is only one hole to plug an earphone, and when i record in my software, and i replay it. it sounds strange. so i'm trying to change a microphone.
    is the headset with microphone for A1278 on sale? could somebody give me an sale net address?

    Thank you. I know what you mean. Apple can support earpiece and microphone in one plug.
    When I ask about this question, my MBP had trouble in Windows XP.
    I'm Chinese, and there is a software named DynEd. I was using it to record my voice,that voice changed when I replay. It just like an iPhone app:Talking Prez.
    And then I reinstall my windows system. Now I'm using Windows 7, and the question resolved.
    Maybe 4GB memory is too big for WinXP x32.
    What do you think?

  • Using Tuxedo with Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC)

    Hi all ,
    Our present Producation environment is Tuxedo8.0 with Oracle 9i as database .
    We are planning to implement oracle RAC .
    Can any one tell us , with the current tuxedo version which is 8.0 ,can we for RAC Or we need to upgrade Tuxedo to 9.1 for RAC Implementation?
    If anyone has Implemented Tuxedo and Oracle with RAC successfully
    Pls share your experience.
    Thanks In Adavance
    Nadeer .

    Subbu,
    As I mentioned earlier in this thread, support for Oracle RAC has been
    implemented in Tuxedo 9.1 and in the Tuxedo 8.1 and Tuxedo 9.0 rolling patch
    streams. There are no plans to backport this feature to Tuxedo 8.0. If you
    plan to use RAC transactionally and if it is possible for multiple services
    that could be located on different RAC instances to be accessed in a single
    transaction (which will be true for most applications), then you should
    upgrade to a version of Tuxedo with support for Oracle RAC. The
    documentation at http://e-docs.bea.com/tuxedo/tux91/ads/adorac.htm#248431
    gives an overview of RAC support in Tuxedo.

    Hello Nadeer, Hello Ed,
    Has the implementation of Tuxedo8.0 with Oracle RAC was completed
    successfully ?.
    If it is done , I have few doubts. Could you please help me ?.
    1) I hope your Tuxedo middleware connects to the oracle Database using
    Oracle XA resource manager and the TMS server built using buildtms with
    oracle as RM .As per the mail from Ed, migration of Tuxedo9.1 should be done
    before moving to Oracle RAC.
    Also from BEA documentation, Oracle RAC support was given as new feature in
    Tuxedo9.1.
    Our Application uses Oracle RM to connect to Oracle DB[ Oracle 10g] from
    Tuxedo8.0. So do we need to upgrade to Tuxedo9.1. for using Oracle RAC ?.
    Thanks for your help
    Best Regards

  • Can Elements 6 Co-exist with Cs-3 on the same on the same drive?

    I have re-installed Elements 6 on a new computer and have also intstalled CS-3. My photo files are stored on an external drive. CS-3 seems to work fine. But, Elements will not download raw files from the camera memory card nor will it recognise the raw files in the existing in the version sets. Raw files show as a broken window. JPEG files work fine.  I have added the latest Camera Raw Plug-ins. I have come to the conclusion that my problem is the presents of CS-3 on the same internal harddrive as Elements 6. Am I correct in that assumption? If so, what is the solution?

    Hello Tarun:
    I really appreciate your help. I am 83 years old  and obviously not a
    computer guru. I am devoted to wildlife  photography and find myself at wits end
    with this problem. I do have the latest  camera raw v4.3.1 installed on both
    PSE-6 and CS-3. I did as you instructed  create a new catalogue and
    downloaded four raw photo files from a flash  card. All four images showed up in
    Elements but apparently without the raw  portion. When I tried to edit them I
    get the following message: "Could not  initialize Photo Shop Elements
    because file could not be  found."   I can pull them up on CS-3 and the will edit
    fine. I  have also attached a ms word document with some additional
    information if you  care to go further.
    Big Thanks!!!

    Hi,
    Yes PSE 6.0 and PS CS3 can exist  together.
    Search your computer for Camera Raw.8bi. If you see  multiple camera
    raw.8bi, right click on it -> Properties -> Version  -> File Version. Take the
    latest version and replace the  old.
    Alternatively, go to the following location:
    "C:\Program  Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 6.0\Plug-Ins\File Formats".
    Right click on  Camera Raw.8bi -> Properties -> Version -> File Version
    Check, if  you have the latest version.
    You also mentioned about broken thumbnails.  This does not seem to be a
    camera raw problem, because unsupported raw files  never get added in catalog.
    However, after you replace the camera raw file  above, create a new catalog
    and then try importing  again.
    Thanks,

  • Can RedHat 5.4 fence with IPMI port on UCS B-series blade ?

    Hi to all,
    Is it possible for a RedHat 5.4 installed on a UCS blade to fence with a IPMI (BMC) port of another blade ?
    We created and applied a IPMI profile to the target (controlled) blade. We also created and activated a Serial over Lan policy on that blade.
    Linux guys say they still can't reach ports 623 (maybe Serial over Lan) and 664 (I don't know this port). We have already cheched firewalls, no drops or blocking rules.
    Has anyone succeeded configuring fencing on UCS blades ? And if so, could you explain how ?
    Many thanks, best regards
    Daniele

    At least we succeeded without using too much effort. IPMI inside UCS B series blade is itself able to be managed by RedHat 5.4, it's only a matter to configure it properly on RedHat.
    No need to use Serial Over Lan policy, we have disabled it.
    So this problem is solved, I can answer "yes" to my topic question.
    Thank you anyway, goodbye

  • How can i create wifi hotspot with WPA for windows laptops?

    I using Macbook with Mac OS X Mountain Lion. I can't create a wifi network with WPA Protected Access. I can create with 40bit protection access but i can't with windows..

    No, not unless Apple introduce it for the iPad 2 in a future iOS update - but until if/when that happens you won't be able to use it as a personal hotspot.

  • Can Photoshop make a background with buttons for iDVD?

    Can I create a background in Photoshop (v. 7) and include buttons which work in iDVD6?
    I think so, from reading here and there, and that each button must be on a separare layer. Correct?
    Is there a tutorial or similar on how to do this?
    Thanks.

    you may be able to purchase an apple original CD of
    DVD SP (used) like I did on ebay for pennies on the
    dollar. Works great for backgrounds and button
    creation! Doesn't have to be the latest version for
    it to work well. Good luck.

    I have never used ebay and am not comfortable letting them store my credit card details long-term (risk of hacking etc.) However, I am comfortable using the internet a lot for purchases from individual well-known companies I trust (including Amazon, most of which do not store my credit card details), compared to unknowns on ebay. Three questions please:
    1. What are people's experience of buying from "unknown" sellers on ebay? and
    2. A 1.1 version of DVD Studio Pro is available on ebay. Would that (very old) version allow me to use Photoshop to create DVD backgrounds with buttons designed within Photoshop as part of the Photoshop file? and
    3. Do you think that such an old version would work with QT 7? (Often Apple products do not like working with such "time-zone" differences.)
    Thanks for any help.

  • Can SCVMM 2012 R2 exist with SCVMM 2012 SP1 in the same AD domain

    We currently run System Centre 2012 SP1 (SCOM, SCCM, SCSM and SCVMM 2012 SP1). 
    There is no plan to upgrade the System Centre suite to R2 for another 6 months.
    But we do want to use SCVMM 2012 R2. I don’t plan to use SCVMM 2012 R2 with SCOM or SCCM 2012 SP1. 
    Can I build a separate SCVMM 2012 R2 in the same Active directory domain or forest (on a new server, with a separate database and with different service accounts)?
