Cluster Management 6-19 Adding a Shared Storage Subsystem Each MA8000/EMA12000 Storage Subsystem consists of a controller enclosure and up to six disk enclosures. The procedure to add another MA8000/EMA12000 Storage Subsystem to a redundant Fibre Channel Fabric or redundant FC-AL is very similar to the procedure used for installing the first storage subsystem. The majority of the instructions to add a storage subsystem are found in the following subsections of Chapter 5, "Installation and Configuration": I "Installing the Hardware" I "Setting Up and Configuring an MA8000/EMA12000 Storage Subsystem" Before starting the activities shown in these subsections, you should shut down the Oracle instance on each node, stop the Oracle services on each node, shut down each node, and power off the servers and storage subsystems. After you have configured the new storage subsystem, you need to make the additional space available to Oracle by performing the necessary Oracle commands to associate the new data files to the database. Perform the necessary Oracle commands to associate the new data files to the database. Refer to the documentation provided with the Oracle software for detailed guidelines. Replacing a Cluster Node Before replacing a node, verify that the new configuration is supported by the PDC/O5000. To determine if your new server is supported, see the Compaq Parallel Database Cluster Model PDC/O5000 Certification Matrix for Windows 2000 at www.compaq.com/solutions/enterprise/ha-pdc.html IMPORTANT: Certain restrictions apply to the server models and server configurations that are supported by the Compaq Parallel Database Cluster. For a current list of PDC/O5000-certified servers and details on supported configurations, refer to the Compaq Parallel Database Cluster Model PDC/O5000 Certification Matrix for Windows 2000. Replacing a node consists of removing it logically from the cluster, removing it physically from the cluster, then adding a new server to take its place.
