Hi We’ve being trying to deploy an Oracle RAC on Netapp, using Oracle Enterprise Linux, SnapDrive for Unix (iSCSI Protocol), ASM and SnapManager for Oracle, but cannot do so successfully, because we don’t have the knowledge or resources. We have being searching the netapp library and netapp site for documentation that discusses the procedure for achieving the above, but cannot find anything the meets the above, most guides discuss NFS, but since SMO doesn't support ASM or NFS we need to use either FCP or iSCSI and SMO requires SnapDrive for UNIX.
Documents reviewed include the following: http://media.netapp.com/documents/ tr-3594.pdf tr-3555.pdf tr-3339.pdf tr-3536.pdf tr-3592.pdf tr-3495.pdf tr-3349.pdf tr-3408.pdf tr-3423.pdf tr-3527.pdf tr-3572.pdf iag_linux.pdf SnapDrive for Unix Installation and Administration Guide SMO Installation and Administration Guide
Seems that various Netapp engineers that have being trying to help us with this are also struggling in finding documentation that is fitted to the above mentioned configuration.
Can the toasters community do one better? thanks
