Unable to make tWo concurrent logins to the firewire Hard Disk from RHEL 3.

13885May 18 2005 — edited Nov 22 2006

Hello

I tried setting up a firewire(shared storage) ORACLE 10 G RAC CLUSTER using OCFS/ASM using your install guidelines
but this failed.Below is the scenario.

Hardware : compaq intel PC's with 1 GB RAM
Members in the cluster : Two
Operating system : RHEL AS 3 / FEDORA CORE -3 (both being tried one after the other)
Oracle 10G RAC version : 10.1.0.3.0
HDD : Maxtor one touch II 250 GB with combo interface Firewire/USB 2.0
N/W Adapters : Two public interconnect,Two private interconnect thru 10/100 internet Hubs/switches
Firewire card details: FireWire (IEEE 1394): Agere Systems (former Lucent Microelectronics) FW323 (rev 05)

Failure Description

I successfully loaded the drivers for the Maxtor one touch II in the two Linux (RHEL 3) boxes. But after a restart, at any point of time,

the disk is detected only by one node. It is detected in the other node only if the first node is powered OFF. On investigating we found the

following error message by running "dmesg | grep sbp2" command as root

ieee1394: sbp2: Query logins to SBP-2 device successful
ieee1394: sbp2: Maximum concurrent logins supported: 2
ieee1394: sbp2: Number of active logins: 1
ieee1394: sbp2: Error logging into SBP-2 device - login failed

Please do suggest where i was wrong and how to proceed next.

Thanks & Regards

Raghavan
