Cluster Server limitations
Depending on the configuration model, the following limitations apply to VCS in an Oracle VM Server for SPARC environment.
Limitations for VCS configuration in the control domain:
Each logical domain configured under VCS must have at least two VCPUs. With one VCPU, the control domain always registers 100% CPU utilization for the logical domain. This is an Oracle VM Server for SPARC software issue.
Limitation for VCS configuration in the guest domain when disk based fencing is configured:
Do not export a physical device to more than one guest domains on the same physical node. For example: If you configure I/O fencing in guest domain, and if one of the guest domains dies, then I/O fencing fences off the other guest domains as well.
For co-ordinator disks and data disks, disks must be given from different HBAs if more than one guest domains forming the cluster are residing on the same physical host.
The disks exported for co-ordinator diks and data disks must be full disks and SCSI compliant.
