Generate IO on the System
Generate Input Output operations per second (IOPs) on the Oracle FS System
from the SAN host to verify that the Controller failover functionality is
operational.
1 Install the Oracle FS System Manager on the client workstation to ensure
that all prerequisites to verify the Controller failover are met and to ensure
multi-pathing is installed and congured.
2 Using PuTTY or a terminal emulation program, connect the client
workstation to the SAN host.
3 Use the Iometer to generate the IOPs on the Oracle FS System from the
SAN hosts that are connected to the Oracle FS System.
4 Monitor the IOPs using the Iometer interface.
5 Monitor the IOPs using the Oracle FS System Manager for each of the
LUNs located under: SAN > Statistics and Trending > LUNs.
Failover a Controller Using the CLI
You can failover the Controller to the alternate or buddy Controller using the
CLI.
1 Log in to the FSCLI using the support account.
2 Obtain a list of the Controllers by executing the following command:
./fscli controller -list
/CONTROLLER-01/CONTROLLER-02
3 Run the following command:
./fscli controller -forceFailure -controller
[controller_name]Command Succeeded
4 Verify the Controller failure using the Oracle FS System Manager under:
System > Alerts and Events > Status Summary.
5 Verify that the LUN and its resources are failed over to the alternate or
buddy Controller and monitor the IOPs being generated from the LUNs
and the SAN host using the Iometer interface.
Important: The LUN should never lose connectivity to the Oracle FS
System.
Note: The Controller will automatically restart after the failover.
Bring the Controller Online Using the CLI
Bring the Controller online after testing that the Controller can failover to the
alternate or buddy Controller.
1 Log in to the FSCLI using the primary administrator account.
