Below we will discuss
1) How to create NFS filesystem and use it for Database files:
2) Configure DNFS client filesystem and use it for Database files bypassing Kernel NFS system.

1) How to create NFS filesystem client and use it for Database files:

Create a new NFS filesystem

Below I will creating a new NFS file system named /nfs

[oracle@collabn1 ~]$ df -Ph
Filesystem                       Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/vg_collabn1-lv_root   31G   20G   11G  66% /
tmpfs                            1.8G  758M  1.1G  43% /dev/shm
/dev/sda1                        477M   66M  382M  15% /boot
stage                            465G  280G  186G  61% /media/sf_stage
/dev/asm/shared-162              1.0G   79M  946M   8% /shared


[root@collabn1 ~]# cd /


[root@collabn1 /]# mkdir localfs nfs


Add the below lines in the fstab

[root@collabn1 ~]# vi /etc/fstab

# create an NFS mount on nfs which points back to localfs
localhost:/localfs /nfs nfs rw,bg,hard,nointr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,tcp,vers=3,timeo=600,noac

Add the below line to the exports file

[root@collabn1 ~]# cat /etc/exports
/nfs *(rw,no_root_squash,sync)

stop/start the nfs service:

[root@collabn1 /]# chkconfig nfs on

[root@collabn1 /]# service nfs stop
Shutting down NFS daemon:                                  [  OK  ]
Shutting down NFS mountd:                                  [  OK  ]
Shutting down NFS quotas:                                  [  OK  ]
Shutting down NFS services:                                [  OK  ]
Shutting down RPC idmapd:                                  [  OK  ]

[root@collabn1 /]# service nfs start

Starting NFS daemon:                                       [  OK  ]
Starting RPC idmapd:                                       [  OK  ]


[root@collabn1 /]# mount /nfs

[root@collabn1 /]# df -Ph
Filesystem                       Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/vg_collabn1-lv_root   31G   20G   11G  66% /
tmpfs                            1.8G  758M  1.1G  43% /dev/shm
/dev/sda1                        477M   66M  382M  15% /boot
stage                            465G  280G  186G  61% /media/sf_stage
/dev/asm/shared-162              1.0G   79M  946M   8% /shared
localhost:/localfs                31G   20G   11G  66% /nfs

huray….. /nfs is mounted and available for use.



Create and Manage a tablespace that uses NFS mounted file system file

[root@collabn1 /]# cat /etc/fstab | grep nfs
localhost:/localfs /nfs nfs rw,bg,hard,nointr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,tcp,vers=3,timeo=600,noac

2) Configure DNFS client filesystem and use it for Database files bypassing Kernel NFS system.


With Oracle Database 11g release 2 (11.2), instead of using the operating system kernel NFS client, you can configure Oracle Database to access NFS V3 servers directly using an Oracle internal Direct NFS client.

To enable Oracle Database to use Direct NFS, the NFS file systems must be mounted and available over regular NFS mounts before you start installation. Direct NFS manages settings after installation. You should still set the kernel mount options as a backup, but for normal operation, Direct NFS will manage NFS mounts.

WARNING:
The DNFS Guide says to enable the init.ora param filesystemio_options to enable direct I/O support.
Doing this, all DB access to all files will be via DIO.
There is no way to only enable direct IO for certain files and exclude others.
Configure Direct NFS Client (DNFS)

SHAIKDB>select * from v$dnfs_servers;

no rows selected

SHAIKDB>show parameter filesystem

NAME                     TYPE     VALUE
------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------
filesystemio_options             string     none

i) Configure oranfstab file
Direct NFS Client can use a new configuration file or the mount tab file (/etc/mtab on Linux) to determine the mount point settings for NFS storage devices.

When the oranfstab file is placed in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs, the entries in the file are specific to a single database. When the oranfstab file is placed in /etc, then it is globally available to all Oracle databases

Direct NFS searches for mount entries in the following order:
1. $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/oranfstab
2. /etc/oranfstab
3. /etc/mtab

Here I will let Oracle use the /etc/mtab instead of using oranfstab file:

Enable the Direct NFS Client ODM Library


[root@collabn1 /]# cat /etc/mtab | grep nfs
sunrpc /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs rpc_pipefs rw 0 0
nfsd /proc/fs/nfsd nfsd rw 0 0
localhost:/localfs /nfs nfs rw,bg,hard,nointr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,tcp,vers=3,timeo=600,noac,addr=127.0.0.1 0 0


cd $ORACLE_HOME/lib

mv libodm11.so libodm11.so_bak

ln -s libnfsodm11.so libodm11.so

[oracle@collabn1 lib]$ ls -lrt libodm11.*
-rw-r--r-- 1 oracle oinstall 7442 Aug 14  2009 libodm11.a
lrwxrwxrwx 1 oracle oinstall   12 Aug  1 17:53 libodm11.so_bak -> libodmd11.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 oracle oinstall   14 Sep 12 21:12 libodm11.so -> libnfsodm11.so

On 11.2 you can enable it with the following make command

[oracle@collabn1 lib]$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib

[oracle@collabn1 lib]$ make -f ins_rdbms.mk dnfs_on
rm -f /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.2/SHAIKPROD/lib/libodm11.so; cp /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.2/SHAIKPROD/lib/libnfsodm11.so /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.2/SHAIKPROD/lib/libodm11.so


Re-start the Database instance.
