Subject: Backup/recovery scenarios on RAC 9.2 on RHEL 3 and OCFS


Hi all

I'm trying to perform a test recovery on a 2-node RAC on RHEL 3 Oracle 9.2.0.6, Oracm, OCFS.

When I try and trash the database while oracle running:

rm -f MCATBBSRC01_D.dbf
rm: cannot remove `MCATBBSRC01_D.dbf': Device or resource busy

I've tried this on single instance database and file removes no problem.

Any ideas?

thanks
Lisa
