3320 Disk Array Configuration for Oracle 10

We have a dual-controller StorEdge 3320 disk array with 5 disks (each 320 MB). Four disks have been set up in a RAID-5 configuration with the remaining disk acting as a hot spare. There is a single logical drive which has been partitioned into 3 slices.

The disk array is to be simultaneously connected to two Sun hosts in order to act as database storage for 2-node Oracle 10g RAC configuration. Each host needs to be able to see 3 disks (i.e. logical drive partitions) on the 3320 and have read/write access to those disks.

The disk array has been cabled in a single-bus configuration (as per Sun StorEdge 3000 Family Installation, Operation, and Service Manual, part # 819-1274-12):

· SCSI jumper cable connected between the “CH0” port and the “SNGL BUS CONF” port.
· “CH3” port goes to one host.
· “CH1” port goes to the other host.

The following is the view from the host side (c4t0d<x> entries). It is the same for both hosts:

We have had some disk access issues with our Oracle RAC configuration, I would like to know whether this is a valid configuration, in particular the LUN and channel mappings.

Does anyone have experience in such architecture that can provide some guidance and/or refer to some useful documents? Sun documents do not give much useful information when it comes to using Oracle using such architecture.

AUDIOCFG(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 					       AUDIOCFG(1)

NAME
audiocfg -- configure default audio device SYNOPSIS
audiocfg list audiocfg default index audiocfg test index DESCRIPTION
The audiocfg utility helps maintaining the audio and mixer device symlinks. Run with ``list'', it lists the available audio devices and shows the currently selected default audio device. Called with ``test'', it plays a tone of 2 seconds for each channel of the device with the index index. Called with ``default'', it sets the default audio device to the one with the index index. audiocfg needs access to /dev/drvctl and write access to /dev (when used with ``default'') to work. FILES
/dev/audio Symlink to default audio device. /dev/audio[0-9]* Available audio devices. /dev/audioctl Symlink to default audio control device. /dev/audioctl[0-9]* Available audio control devices. /dev/drvctl Used for finding the corresponding audio driver to an audio device. /dev/mixer Symlink to default mixer device. /dev/mixer[0-9]* Available mixer devices. /dev/sound Symlink to default audio device (for the difference to /dev/audio, see audio(4)). /dev/sound[0-9]* Available audio devices.
