Adding a Voting Disk

Use the cluster control utility crsctl to add voting disks and to remove them.


crsctl add css votedisk /full_path_to_voting_disk


crsctl delete css votedisk /full_path_to_voting_disk


For backing up purposes, the voting disk is merely a chunk of binary data and as such may be copied out to a normal file system table, for backing up.


saving the voting disk data to filesystem


dd if=/full_path_to_voting_disk of=/full_path_to_filesystem_savepoint


restoring the voting disk from the filesystem


dd of=/full_path_to_filesystem_savepoint if=/full_path_to_voting_disk
