Linking to VERITAS Libraries

  1. At the completion of the patch installation, run the following command as oracle user to link Oracle with the VERITAS IPC library and enable Oracle to use the VERITAS ODM and cluster membership (VCSMM) libraries:
      $ /opt/VRTSvcs/rac/bin/linkrac9i
    Note   Note    If the Oracle binaries are on a cluster file system, perform this step on only one node. If the Oracle binaries are on a local file system of each cluster node, run the command to link Oracle with VERITAS libraries on each cluster node.

    If your system uses a bundled C compiler or a compiler other than the ANSI C compiler, you can safely ignore such warnings as:


    (Bundled) cc: warning 922: "+Oshortdata=8" is unsupported in the
    bundled compiler, ignored.

    Refer to Oracle Metalink Document ID 66442.1 for more information.
    Search on: 66442.1 FAQ about 'C' Compiler Issues on HP-UX.

  2. After starting Oracle instances, confirm Oracle uses the VERITAS libraries. Examine the Oracle alert file, alert_$ORACLE_SID.log, for the following lines:
    Oracle instance running with ODM: VERITAS 4.1 ODM Library,
    Version 1.0

    cluster interconnect IPC version:VERITAS IPC 4.1 08:44:27 Apr 20
    2005

    Note   Note    If Oracle binaries are on a local file system of each cluster node, examine the Oracle alert file on each of the cluster nodes.

To perform post-installation tasks, refer to the Oracle Patch Set Notes that accompany the patch.
