In order for the SharePlex processes to issue name lookups and migrate properly in a clustered environment (where a package name supersedes the local system name), the SP_SYS_HOST_NAME parameter must be set to the correct package name. In addition, the host name set by this parameter must be the same on all members of the cluster so that the name can bind to a socket and the /etc/hosts file or nameserver can correctly map the parameter’s value to the correct IP address.
The sp_cop program should only be started through the cluster management software.
When setting up SharePlex to work with an Oracle database, you provide the ORACLE_SID and then SharePlex gets the ORACLE_HOME from the oratab file on Unix/Linux. Both values are stored in the SharePlex environment. SharePlex uses the Oracle libraries that are in the location specified with ORACLE_HOME.
To determine the ORACLE_SID and ORACLE_HOME being used by SharePlex:
Issue the orainfo command in sp_ctrl.
sp_ctrl (mysysl11:2101)> orainfo
Oracle instance #1:
Oracle SID ora12
Oracle HOME /oracle/products/12
Oracle Version 12
Oracle instance #2:
Oracle SID ora12
Oracle HOME /oracle/products/12
Oracle Version 12
To determine the default ORACLE_SID and ORACLE_HOME on UNIX and Linux:
On most Unix and Linux systems the oratab file is under /etc/oratab. On Oracle Solaris systems, it is under /var/opt/oracle, but sometimes there is an oratab file in the /etc directory as well.
The entry in the file looks like the following example:
qa12:/qa/oracle/ora12/app/oracle/product/12.0
In the example, qa12 is the ORACLE_SID and /qa/oracle/ora12/app/oracle/product/12.0 is the ORACLE_HOME.
