CLUSTER COMPONENTS




OHASD - Oracle High Availability Services Daemon:
-          It is the first and only daemon which is going to start by parent init process and in turn it is responsible for starting some other agents & daemon by reading OLR (oracle local registry file)
-          It needs access to OLR file that contains the startup sequence of other child daemons.

CSRD – Cluster Ready Services Daemon:
-          It is responsible for maintain the cluster configuration and HA (High availability) operations by reading the OCR file (oracle cluster registry)
-          OCR file contains the complete cluster information which is required for CRSD Daemon.

CSSD – Cluster Synchronization Services Daemon:
-          It is responsible for updating node membershIP of all the nodes within the cluster into VD (Voting Disk)
-          In Non-RAC environment, CSSD daemon is responsible for maintaining the communication between ASM instance and ASM Clients database instances.

VD – Voting Disk:
-          It consist the updated information of all the cluster nodes.
-          Both OCR & VD requires 280 MB of space

EVMP – Event Manager Daemon:
It is responsible for publishing & subscribing the events which are generated by CRSD Daemon to the other nodes


OCTSSD – Oracle Cluster Time Synchronization Services Daemon:
-          It is responsible for maintaining the consistency in time
-          It has two modes
o    Observer : if NTP (network time protocol) is enabled
o    Active : if NTP is disabled

GMNPD

GSD: From 10g it is duplicated, it is responsible for performing the administrative tasks whenever GUI application like NETCA or DBCA invoked.

ONS – Oracle Notification Server: It is responsible for publishing the notification events thru FAN (Fast Application Notifications)

VIP – Virtual IP:
-          It is registered as a resource into OCR and maintained the status into OCR.
-          For Release 2 onwards, we require every node specific one private IP in one subnet mask and one public IP & VIP on other subnet mask and 3 unused scan VIP’s on the same subnet mask of public.
