集群文件系统(CFS)

• 扩展不会中断可用性.CFS上的ORACLE_HOME和数据文件可以动态扩展.
• 消除集群中每个节点拥有ORACLE_HOME本地拷贝的需要.
• 拥有RAID卷和SAN的全部优势.
• 简化ORACLE数据库管理.CFS提供统一的文件和目录的视图访问集群中所有ORACLE_HOME文件和数据文件.
• 在物理节点故障事件中对归档日志提供统一的可访问性.
• 当ORACLE_HOME在CFS上时,应用ORACLE补丁时,CFS保证集群所有节点中被升级的ORACLE_HOME是可见的.
• 保证访问集群中元数据的一致性.

• Is extensible without interrupting availability. Oracle homes and datafiles stored on CFS can be extended dynamically.  
• Eliminates the requirement for each node in a cluster to have its own local copy of the Oracle home.
• Takes full advantage of RAID volumes and storage area networks (SANs).
• Simplifies Oracle database administration. CFS provides a uniform view of files and directories across a cluster for both Oracle home files and Oracle database files.
• Provides uniform accessibility to archive logs in the event of physical node failures.
• With Oracle home on CFS, when you apply Oracle patches CFS guarantees that the updated Oracle home is visible to all nodes in the cluster.
• Guarantees consistency of metadata across nodes in a cluster.
