/* || Oracle 11gR2 ACFS Implementation Listing || || Contains code samples for implementing the new ASM Clustered File System (ACFS) as || part of the Oracle 11gR2 New Features article series. || || Author: Jim Czuprynski || || Usage Notes: || These examples are provided to demonstrate various Oracle 11gR2 Grid Infrastructure || features, and they should be carefully proofread before being executed || against any existing Oracle database to avoid potential damage! */ /* || Listing 2.1: || Complete description of asmca “silent” command line scripting options */ $> asmca -help asmca [-silent] [-sysAsmPassword <SYS user password>] [-asmsnmpPassword <ASM monitor password>] {<command> <options>} Please refer to the manual for details. You can enter one of the following commands: 1. Configure an ASM instance by specifying the following command and parameters: -configureASM [-sysAsmPassword <SYS user password>] [-asmsnmpPassword <ASM monitor password>] [(-param <paramname=paramvalue>)] -diskString <disk discovery path> (-diskGroupName <disk group name> (-disk <disk path> [-diskName <disk name>] | -diskList <comma separated disk list> [-diskSize <disk size in MB>] [-failuregroup <failure group name>] [-force|-noforce] [-quorum|-noquorum]) [-redundancy <HIGH|NORMAL|EXTERNAL>] [-au_size <2^0 ~ 2^6 (1 ~ 64)>] [-compatible.asm <10.1 ~ 11.2>] [-compatible.rdbms <10.1 ~ 11.2>] [-compatible.advm <11.2>]) 2. Upgrade an existing ASM instance by specifying the following command and parameters: -upgradeASM [-asmsnmpPassword <ASM monitor password>] 3. Configure ASM parameters by specifying the following command and parameters: -configureParameter (-param <paramname=paramvalue>) [-sysAsmPassword <SYS user password>] 4. Create diskgroups by specifying the following command and parameters: -createDiskGroup [-diskString <disk discovery path>] (-diskGroupName <disk group name> (-disk <disk path> [-diskName <disk name>] | -diskList <comma separated disk list> [-diskSize <disk size in MB>] [-failuregroup <failure group name>] [-force|-noforce] [-quorum|-noquorum]) [-redundancy <HIGH|NORMAL|EXTERNAL>] [-au_size <2^0 ~ 2^6 (1 ~ 64)>] [-compatible.asm <10.1 ~ 11.2>] [-compatible.rdbms <10.1 ~ 11.2>] [-compatible.advm <11.2>]) [-sysAsmPassword <SYS user password>] 5. Add disks to diskgroups by specifying the following command and parameters: -addDisk [-diskString <disk discovery path>] (-diskGroupName <disk group name> (-disk <disk path> [-diskName <disk name>] | -diskList <comma separated disk list> [-diskSize <disk size in MB>] [-failuregroup <failure group name>] [-force|-noforce] [-quorum|-noquorum]) [-sysAsmPassword <SYS user password>] 6. Create volumes by specifying the following command and parameters: -createVolume (-volumeName <ASM volume name> -volumeDiskGroup <ASM disk group name for the volume> -volumeSizeGB <ASM volume size in GB> [-volumeRedundancy <INHERIT|HIGH|NORMAL|EXTERNAL>]) [-sysAsmPassword <SYS user password>] 7. Create ASM Cluster File Systems by specifying the following command and parameters: -createACFS (-acfsVolumeDevice <ASM volume device>) [-sysAsmPassword <SYS user password>] 8. Delete ASM instance(s) by specifying the following command and parameters: -deleteASM [-force] [-dropDiskGroups] [-sysAsmPassword <SYS user password>] /* || Listing 2.2: || Complete description of acfsutil command-line options */ #> acfsutil help Usage: acfsutil [-h] command ... # (Version 11.2.0.1.0.0) -h - help Command Subcmd Arguments -------- ------ ---------------------------------------------------------------- help - display this message version - display ACFS version information info fs - Display all ACFS file systems info fs [<path> ...] - Display specific ACFS file sys info fs -o <item> <path> - Display specific file sys item: info fs -o freespace, totalspace, info fs -o mountpoints, volumes, info fs -o available, ismountpoint, info fs -o isavailable, iscorrupt, info fs -o isadvm, diskgroup, info fs -o redundancy, resizeincrement, info fs -o stripewidth, stripecolumns, info fs -o primaryvolume info file <path> [<path> ...] - Display specific file info info id <file-identifier> <mountpoint> - info id Display the pathname associated with the given info id ACFS file identifier and mountpoint. rmfs <device> - Remove unmounted ACFS file sys size [-|+]nnn[K|M|G|T|P] [-d <device>] <path> - Resize file system registry [-l] - Display registry contents registry -l <mountpoint> - Display a specific mount point registry -l <device> - Display a specific device registry -m <device> - Display a specific mount point associated with a device registry -a [-f] [-o <opts>] [-n <nodes>] <device> <mountpoint> - Add a mount point registry -d [<mountpoint> | <device>] - Delete a mount point or a device tune AcfsMaxOpenFiles - Maximum number of open files tune (Windows only) snap create <snap_name> <mountpoint> - create a file system snapshot snap delete <snap_name> <mountpoint> - delete a file system snapshot /* || Listing 2.3: || Installing a new Oracle 11gR2 Database Home within an ACFS-controlled directory */
