Cluster Server 7.4.2 Database Agent for Oracle Configuration Guide - Windows

To create a dynamic (cluster) disk group

1. Launch Veritas Enterprise Administrator from the Apps menu on the Start screen.

   Optionally, launch the VEA from the Solutions Configuration Center, and select a profile if prompted.

2. Click Connect to a Host or Domain.
3. In the Connect dialog box, select the host name from the pull-down menu and click Connect.

   To connect to the local system, select localhost. Provide the user name, password, and domain if prompted.

4. To start the New Dynamic Disk Group wizard, expand the tree view under the host node, right click the Disk Groups icon, and select New Dynamic Disk Group from the context menu.
5. In the Welcome screen of the New Dynamic Disk Group wizard, click Next.

   • Check the Create cluster group check box.

   • Select the appropriate disks in the Available disks list, and use the Add button to move them to the Selected disks list.

     Optionally, check the Disk names prefix checkbox and enter a disk name prefix to give the disks in the disk group a specific identifier.

     For example, entering TestGroup as the prefix for a disk group that contains three disks creates TestGroup1, TestGroup2, and TestGroup3 as internal names for the disks in the disk group.

   • Click Next.

6. Click Next to accept the confirmation screen with the selected disks.
7. Click Finish to create the new disk group.
