| Title: |
ASM Cluster File System—Cluster Storage for Non Database Files |
| |
| Summary: |
With the increasing movement towards clustered databases, cluster aware storage plays an increasing role in the environment. In release 10g of the database, Oracle introduced Automatic Storage Management (ASM), a cluster aware storage paradigm for database files. In 11g R2, Oracle introduces the ASM Cluster File System (ACFS), a general purpose cluster file system for the storage of non-database files. ACFS is a POSIX compliant file system, built atop ASM, that can be used for shared Oracle Homes, BFILE contents, UTL_FILE directories, trace files, log files, user written script files, and so forth. ACFS is highly performant, easily managed, highly available, and provides a useful snapshot capability. In this presentation, we'll explore how such file systems are created, managed, and integrated with the Oracle Clusterware. |
