Configuring Veritas Volume Replicator

Perform this step only if you have not already configured VVR during the installation.

By default, the installer installs the required VVR configuration files irrespective of whether or not you choose to enable VVR. To configure VVR manually in SF Oracle RAC, simply start VVR using the vxstart_vvr command . The command starts the VVR daemons and configures the ports. You may change the default settings at any time.

For instructions on changing the default settings, see the Veritas Volume Replicator Administrator's Guide.

To configure VVR

  1. Log into each node in the cluster as the root user.
  2. Start VVR:
    # vxstart_vvr start
    VxVM VVR INFO V-5-2-3935 Using following ports:
    heartbeat: 4145
    vradmind: 8199
    vxrsyncd: 8989
    data: Anonymous-Ports
