Setting up replication objects on the primary site

Before creating the RVG on the primary site, make sure the replication objects are active and online.

 To review the status of replication objects on the primary site

1. Verify the volumes you intend to include in the group are active.
2. Review the output of the hagrp -state cvm command.
3. Check that the cvm group is online.

 To create the RVG

The command to create the primary RVG takes the form:

vradmin -g disk_group createpri rvg_name data_volume srl_volume

where:

• disk_group is the name of the disk group containing the database
• rvg_name is the name for the RVG
• data_volume is the volume that VVR replicates
• srl_volume is the volume for the SRL

  For example, to create the rac1_rvg RVG, enter:

  # vradmin -g oradatadgcreatepri rac1_rvg rac1_vol rac1_srl

The command creates the RVG on the primary site and adds a Data Change Map (DCM) for each data volume. In this case, a DCM exists for rac1_vol).
