This is not unknown to me. I did some research before :) What is interesting is how to stop Oracle. I opted for shutdown abort with a checkpoint before. According to the Oracle doc shutdown abort should be safe. alter system checkpoint makes it then start faster. I also tried to optimize starting and to get to the running state the shortest way by first checking the database status. > The calling conventions were slightly different than OCF RAs of course, > but I trust that won't be an issue. > > (There were also SAP R/3, SAP DB, SAP router, Informix, DB2 agents for > FailSafe, in case you want to write one for that too, you might find > that helpful.) SAP is interesting and with v2 we may be able to support the weird SAP setups :) Cheers, Dejan > > > Sincerely, > Lars Marowsky-Br?e > > -- > High Availability & Clustering > SUSE Labs, Research and Development > SUSE LINUX Products GmbH - A Novell Business -- Charles Darwin > "Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge" > _______________________________________________________ Linux-HA-Dev: Linux-HA-Dev@lists.linux-ha.org http://lists.linux-ha.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-ha-dev Home Page: http://linux-ha.org/
