In the Disk Management, logical drives appear as Disk 0, Disk 1, and so on. Subdivide the extended partition into logical partitions. The first logical partition is a small fraction of the extended partition and is used by Secure Path software to identify the logical drive as an Oracle Parallel Server shared database resource. Other logical partitions contain the rest of the extended partition capacity and are used for Oracle8i Parallel Server shared database resources. One logical partition is required for each Oracle Parallel Server shared database resource. See the Oracle8i Parallel Server Setup and Configuration Guide for information on Oracle8i Parallel Server database guidelines and requirements for subdividing the large extended partitions into logical partitions. To create partitions on a logical drive: 1. Run Disk Management from one node. 2. Create a large extended partition using all of the logical drive space.

3.
Verify that the above changes were made by entering the following
command:
show units full
4.
Repeat steps 1 through 3 for each storage subsystem in the PDC/O5000.
You have completed the software configuration required to support your
Secure Path environment. Now you are ready to monitor and manage Secure
Path activity using the Secure Path Manager.
Powering Up All Other Fibre Channel SAN Switches
or Storage Hubs
After installing the Secure Path software, power up all powered-off Fibre
Channel SAN Switches or Storage Hubs and restart all nodes in the cluster.
Creating Partitions
Using Disk Management, you must create one extended partition on each
logical drive you created previously in the
Configuring a Storageset
section
of this chapter. In the Disk Management, logical drives appear as Disk 0,
Disk 1, and so on.
Subdivide the extended partition into logical partitions. The first logical
partition is a small fraction of the extended partition and is used by Secure
Path software to identify the logical drive as an Oracle Parallel Server shared
database resource.
Other logical partitions contain the rest of the extended partition capacity and
are used for Oracle8
i
Parallel Server shared database resources. One logical
partition is required for each Oracle Parallel Server shared database resource.
See the
Oracle8i Parallel Server Setup and Configuration Guide
for
information on Oracle8
i
Parallel Server database guidelines and requirements
for subdividing the large extended partitions into logical partitions.
To create partitions on a logical drive:
1.
Run Disk Management from one node.
2.
Create a large extended partition using all of the logical drive space.
