sfrac07_main.cf and sfrac08_main.cf files
The sample configuration, sfrac07_main.cf, describes a disaster recovery configuration for the primary site. The sample configuration, sfrac08_main.cf, describes a disaster recovery configuration for the secondary site. The configuration uses VVR for replicating data between the sites.
This sample file describes the following configuration:
Two SF Oracle RAC clusters, comprising two nodes each, hosted at different geographical locations.
A single Oracle database that is stored on CFS.
The database is managed by the VCS agent for Oracle.
The agent starts, stops, and monitors the database.
The database uses the Oracle UDP IPC for database cache fusion.
A common IP address is used by Oracle Clusterware and database cache fusion. The private IP address is managed by the PrivNIC agent for high availability.
One virtual IP address must be configured under the ClusterService group on each site for inter-cluster communication.
The Oracle Cluster Registry (OCR) and voting disk are stored on CFS.
Volume Replicator (VVR) is used to replicate data between the sites.
The shared volumes replicated across the sites are configured under the RVG group.
The replication link used by VVR for communicating log information between sites are configured under the rlogowner group. This is a failover group that will be online on only one of the nodes in the cluster at each site.
The database group will be online on the primary cluster. The RVGSharedPri resource determines where the database group will be brought online.
The database group is configured as a global group by specifying the clusters on the primary and secondary sites as values for the ClusterList group attribute.
Figure: Service group configuration for sfrac07_main.cf and sfrac08_main.cf files illustrates the configuration. The service group configuration is the same on the primary and secondary site. The availability of groups (online/offline) differ between the sites.
