Overview

This resource controls the Oracle database. It detects the Oracle database installed on the system, controls the service and monitors the status.

Start

Starts the Oracle database service.

If the service is already running, terminate the service through Finish process and start it again. After the start, check the backup status to see if there is any ongoing backup process. If so, terminate it and try to open the instance again.

Terminate

Terminates the Oracle database service. If there is an ongoing backup process, terminate it first.

If ShutdownOption is set to 'Abort', use the "shutdown abort" command to terminate an instance. If not, try "shutdown immediate".

When OfflineTimeout occurs, if ShutdownOption is set to 'AbortAtTimeout', use "shutdown abort" to terminate.

Monitor

Monitors whether the Oracle database process is running.

Additionally, if the DoQuery attribute is set to 'true', inquire about the instance status and set the Status attribute. If the status is 'OPEN', it will conclude that execution is normal. If the status is set to other value, then it will conclude that there is "no response".

If the FaultOnQueryFailure attribute is set to 'true', "no response" is handled as a trouble.

Finish

If the monitoring results indicate the case of trouble, run the following finish process.

1. If all the Oracle database processes are running, run the termination command.
2. If there is any process not terminated after running the termination command, terminate it forcibly.
3. If there is any IPC resource not finished, delete them all.

Add

In your resource addition wizard, select a resource type for the Oracle database.

From the list of Oracle database services installed, select a service item to manage.

Status

The following table explains the status changing of the MCCS resource caused by a user's command and the status.
The command assumes that it is generated by a user.

Oracle database agent: Manages the shared disks registered in MCCS. 

	Status	Descriptions
	Offline	It means that all the processes composing the Oracle database service are terminated.
	Online	It means that the Oracle database is running. If the DoQuery attribute is set to 'true', the instance status is 'OPEN'.
	No response	It means that the Oracle database is running, but the instance status is not 'OPEN' or you cannot inquire about its status.
	Trouble	It means that it went offline from online without a termination process.
