You could set 'recovery="relocate"', freeze the service, stop the database cleanly, then unfreeze the service. When rgmanager does a status check on the service, it will fail, issue a stop (which will be a no-op for the database), then start it on the other node. It's kind of ... odd to do it that way, but it should work. Alternatively, you could make oracledb.sh use clean shutdown of the database, wait some period of time, then do a hard-shutdown. In a failover case where the node fails, the recovery time will be no different. -- Lon -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
