How do I configure raw devices in order to install 10g Clusterware on RHEL5 or OEL5?
The raw devices OS support scripts like /etc/sysconfig/rawdevices are not shipped on RHEL5 or OEL5, this is because raw devices are being deprecated on Linux. This means that in order to install 10g Clusterware you’d have to manually bind the raw devices to the block devices for the OCR and voting disks so that the 10g installer will proceed without error. Refer to Note 465001.1 for exact details on how to do the above. 11g Clusterware doesn’t require this configuration since the installer can handle block devices directly.
