【RAC】因虚拟机配置文件调整不完整导致RAC无法使用

今天有朋友反映，在虚拟机下反复切换使用多套RAC环境的时导致RAC环境无法使用。
经查，由于虚拟机的配置文件（***.vmx）未做修改，多套虚拟机环境引用的共享存储为同一套，最终导致RAC节点与存储关系脱节。

这是一个细节上的问题，在环境调整时一定要确保所有的配置文件都调整到位，防止出现不必要的遗漏。

该问题直接导致的结果是其中的一套实验环境荡然无存。

1.虚拟机配置文件
其中RAC第一节点的配置文件内容如下
config.version = "8"
virtualHW.version = "4"
scsi0.present = "TRUE"
scsi0.virtualDev = "lsilogic"
memsize = "512"
scsi0:0.present = "TRUE"
scsi0:0.fileName = "RAC1.vmdk"
ide1:0.present = "TRUE"
ide1:0.fileName = "E:\software\Linux\Linux_RHEL5.1\linux5_32bits.iso"
ide1:0.deviceType = "cdrom-image"
floppy0.present = "FALSE"
Ethernet0.present = "TRUE"
displayName = "RAC1"
guestOS = "redhat"
priority.grabbed = "normal"
priority.ungrabbed = "normal"

scsi1.present = "TRUE"
scsi1:1.present = "TRUE"
scsi1:1.fileName = "E:\VMRAC\raw_disk\ocr.vmdk"
scsi1:1.mode = "independent-persistent"
scsi1:2.present = "TRUE"
scsi1:2.fileName = "E:\VMRAC\raw_disk\vote.vmdk"
scsi1:2.mode = "independent-persistent"
scsi1:3.present = "TRUE"
scsi1:3.fileName = "E:\VMRAC\raw_disk\asm1.vmdk"
scsi1:3.mode = "independent-persistent"
scsi1:4.present = "TRUE"
scsi1:4.fileName = "E:\VMRAC\raw_disk\asm2.vmdk"
scsi1:4.mode = "independent-persistent"
scsi1.virtualDev = "lsilogic"
Ethernet1.present = "TRUE"
Ethernet1.connectionType = "hostonly"
Ethernet2.present = "TRUE"

scsi0:0.redo = ""
scsi1:1.redo = ""
scsi1:2.redo = ""
scsi1:3.redo = ""
scsi1:4.redo = ""
ethernet0.addressType = "generated"
ethernet1.addressType = "generated"
ethernet2.addressType = "generated"
uuid.location = "56 4d 8b 0a 11 fa 08 48-43 0d 53 be 05 b9 49 03"
uuid.bios = "56 4d 5e 08 8c bd 90 4f-c0 ac 11 8b a0 2c 74 42"
ethernet0.generatedAddress = "00:0c:29:2c:74:42"
ethernet0.generatedAddressOffset = "0"
ethernet1.generatedAddress = "00:0c:29:2c:74:4c"
ethernet1.generatedAddressOffset = "10"
ethernet2.generatedAddress = "00:0c:29:2c:74:56"
ethernet2.generatedAddressOffset = "20"


disk.locking = "false"
diskLib.dataCacheMaxSize = "0"
diskLib.dataCacheMaxReadAheadSize = "0"
diskLib.DataCacheMinReadAheadSize = "0"
diskLib.dataCachePageSize = "4096"
diskLib.maxUnsyncedWrites = "0"
scsi1:1.deviceType = "disk"
scsi1:2.deviceType = "disk"
scsi1:3.deviceType = "disk"
scsi1:4.deviceType = "disk"

ethernet0.connectionType = "nat"
ethernet0.vnet = "VMnet1"
ethernet2.connectionType = "nat"

ide1:0.startConnected = "TRUE"
tools.syncTime = "FALSE"

numvcpus = "2"
workingDir = "."

2.有关裸设备的位置配置信息
scsi1.present = "TRUE"
scsi1:1.present = "TRUE"
scsi1:1.fileName = "E:\VMRAC\raw_disk\ocr.vmdk"
scsi1:1.mode = "independent-persistent"
scsi1:2.present = "TRUE"
scsi1:2.fileName = "E:\VMRAC\raw_disk\vote.vmdk"
scsi1:2.mode = "independent-persistent"
scsi1:3.present = "TRUE"
scsi1:3.fileName = "E:\VMRAC\raw_disk\asm1.vmdk"
scsi1:3.mode = "independent-persistent"
scsi1:4.present = "TRUE"
scsi1:4.fileName = "E:\VMRAC\raw_disk\asm2.vmdk"
scsi1:4.mode = "independent-persistent"
scsi1.virtualDev = "lsilogic"

在多套备份环境并存的情况下很有可能由于未对上述内容调整导致RAC环境不可用的问题。

以上仅仅是RAC环境中第一节点的配置文件，其他节点的配置文件需要同时进行调整。

3.小结
在使用VMWARE准备虚拟RAC环境过程中，每完成一个重大调整步骤后进行备份的做法是值得提倡的，但是在备份的过程中需要注意配置文件的调整。文中提到的是一种故障案例。

Good luck.
