Troubleshooting 7-3 Access to Cluster Components Once the physical connections have been checked, ensure that communication is occurring between all the cluster components. I To test the redundant Ethernet cluster interconnect and client LAN connections, use the ping utility. From each cluster node, ping the Ethernet cluster interconnect adapter or port located in the other nodes. Similarly, from each cluster node, ping the name, then the address, of the client LAN Ethernet adapter or port located in the other nodes. A correct ping response from each node confirms that the Ethernet connections are correct. For information about using the ping utility, refer to "Verifying Cluster Communications" in Chapter 5, "Installation and Configuration." I To confirm that the shared storage is accessible to each cluster node, run Secure Path Manager or the Disk Management utility from each node. Confirm that the same RA4000/RA4100 Array disk volumes can be seen from each node. If the shared storage resources are not consistent across all nodes, refer to Appendix A, "Diagnosing and Resolving Shared Disk Problems" for more detailed guidelines. Software Revisions The following software components must have the same revision level on each of the cluster nodes: I Oracle8i Server Release 8.1.7 with Oracle8i Parallel Server Option Release 8.1.7 I RA4000 Array Controller drivers I Compaq Insight Manager I Compaq Array Configuration Utility I Compaq Secure Path for Windows 2000 I Compaq Ethernet OSDs I Cluster interconnect drivers I Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server, including Service Pack 1 or later
