Maintenance is easier, but at what cost? I would ask those dba's for some documentation from the database vendor that approves of this. It could be that my info is dated, but I would need to see a cite.

We have several terrabytes of oracle and sybase databases here and no dba has ever asked for filesystem space. Which datbase did those dba's use?

Raw I/o

Is there any system call available in AIX to read the size of raw disk? If I use the command "lspv -L",it only gives size of PVs on which file system is there. I need to extract the size raw disk i.e. file system is not there on the disk. Thanks, Megha (6 Replies)

OCF_HEARTBEAT_FILESY(7) 					OCF resource agents					   OCF_HEARTBEAT_FILESY(7)

NAME
ocf_heartbeat_Filesystem - Manages filesystem mounts SYNOPSIS
Filesystem [start | stop | notify | monitor | validate-all | meta-data] DESCRIPTION
Resource script for Filesystem. It manages a Filesystem on a shared storage medium. The standard monitor operation of depth 0 (also known as probe) checks if the filesystem is mounted. If you want deeper tests, set OCF_CHECK_LEVEL to one of the following values: 10: read first 16 blocks of the device (raw read) This doesn't exercise the filesystem at all, but the device on which the filesystem lives. This is noop for non-block devices such as NFS, SMBFS, or bind mounts. 20: test if a status file can be written and read The status file must be writable by root. This is not always the case with an NFS mount, as NFS exports usually have the "root_squash" option set. In such a setup, you must either use read-only monitoring (depth=10), export with "no_root_squash" on your NFS server, or grant world write permissions on the directory where the status file is to be placed. SUPPORTED PARAMETERS
device The name of block device for the filesystem, or -U, -L options for mount, or NFS mount specification. (required, string, no default) directory The mount point for the filesystem. (required, string, no default) fstype The optional type of filesystem to be mounted. (required, string, no default) options Any extra options to be given as -o options to mount. For bind mounts, add "bind" here and set fstype to "none". We will do the right thing for options such as "bind,ro". (optional, string, no default) statusfile_prefix The prefix to be used for a status file for resource monitoring with depth 20. If you don't specify this parameter, all status files will be created in a separate directory. (optional, string, default .Filesystem_status/) SUPPORTED ACTIONS
This resource agent supports the following actions (operations): start Starts the resource. Suggested minimum timeout: 60. stop Stops the resource. Suggested minimum timeout: 60. notify Suggested minimum timeout: 60. monitor Performs a detailed status check. Suggested minimum timeout: 40. Suggested interval: 20. validate-all Performs a validation of the resource configuration. Suggested minimum timeout: 5. meta-data Retrieves resource agent metadata (internal use only). Suggested minimum timeout: 5. EXAMPLE
The following is an example configuration for a Filesystem resource using the crm(8) shell: primitive example_Filesystem ocf:heartbeat:Filesystem params device=string directory=string fstype=string op monitor depth="0" timeout="40" interval="20" SEE ALSO
