Troubleshooting
7-7
Unable to Start the Database
Verify that Object Link Manager is properly installed and running on
each node. Also, verify that Object Link Manager accurately sees all of
the Oracle partitions and their symbolic link associations. Refer to
Appendix A,
Diagnosing and Resolving Shared Disk Problems
for
detailed guidelines.
Verify that all files created by Net8 Config Assistant were transferred
properly to each respective node.
Verify the connections and accessibility of the cluster components.
Refer to the
Basic Troubleshooting Tips
section in this chapter.
Verify that the OracleService is running. From the
Services
screen, scan
the list of services and check to see if the OracleService is started.
Verify that the database links are properly set up on all nodes and that
correct entries exist for all datafiles, including OPS_CMDISK. Refer to
the
Oracle8i Parallel Server Setup and Configuration Guide
for further
details.
Initialization of the Dynamic Link Library
NM.DLL Failed
If this failure occurs, stop the currently running OracleCMService and
OracleNMService. Restart the OracleNMService, then the OracleCMService.
From the
Services
screen, locate each service, highlight it, then stop it.
Finally, highlight the service and restart it.
Troubleshooting Node-to-Node
Connectivity Problems
Nodes Are Unable to Communicate with Each Other
Check the System log and Applications log for errors.
Check the OracleCMService error log for information. The default
location for the error log is C:\compaq\ops\cmsrvr.log. If not found in
the default location, look in the same directory in which the OSDs were
installed.
Verify the connections and accessibility of the cluster components.
Refer to the
Basic Troubleshooting Tips
section in this chapter.
