##Overview

This module configure the Oracle DBFS as a Unix Service on RHEL 6 systems (should work on 7 in compatibility)

##Module Description

This module configure Oracle DBFS as a service and mount all defined remote file systems at boot. This is particularly useful as Oracle does not provide a way to automount DBFS (do not refer to the Oracle DBFS documentation because what's declared is NOT working)

##Setup

###What oracle_dbfs affects

This is what this module will alter:

  • Create /etc/sysconfig/oracle_dbfs
  • Create /etc/sysconfig/oracle_dbfs.mounts a fstab like file for your mounts
  • Create /etc/init.d/oracle_dbfs, chkconfig on the service and ensure it is running
  • Add the oracle user to the fuse group
  • Ensure packages fuse, fuse-libs are installed
  • touch /etc/fuse.conf and (if configured) ensure allow_other option is present
  • Create /etc/oracle/dbfs/{admin,wallet} where to store tnsnames.ora,sqlnet.ora and wallet files
  • Create any required mount point with owner oracle and related group (as configured)

###Setup Requirements

This module requires:

###Beginning with oracle_dbfs

This is a simpe use of the modules:

  include oracle_dbfs {
    user        => 'oracle',
    group       => 'dba',
    oracle_base => '/usr/ora11g/app/oracle',
    oracle_home => '/usr/ora11g/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.4/client',
    ewallet     => 'ewallet content',
    cwallet     => 'cwallet content',
    tnsnames    => 'tnsnames content',
    sqlnet      => 'sqlnet content',
    mounts      => {
      '/mnt/dbfs' => {
        'conn_string' => 'dbfs@DBFS',
        'mount_point' => '/mnt/dbfs',
      },
    }
  }

Defaults:

Option Defaults to Description
user_allow_other true puts in /etc/fuse.conf
config_dir /etc/oracle/dbfs Where to store wallet and tnsnames/sqlnet.ora files
user oracle Self explanatory
group dba Self explanatory
oracle_base /usr/ora11g/app/oracle Self explanatory
oracle_home /usr/ora11g/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.4/client Self explanatory
service_name oracle_dbfs Self explanatory

##Usage

To take the most out of this module I recommend using hiera + the hiera-file backend. This is an example using hiera:

  include oracle_dbfs

Hiera config file:

  ---
  oracle_dbfs:
    user:             'oracle'
    group:            'dba'
    oracle_base:      '/usr/ora11g/app/oracle'
    oracle_home:      '/usr/ora11g/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.4/client'
    config_dir:       '/etc/oracle/dbfs'
    user_allow_other: true
    mounts:
      '/mnt/oradbfs'
        conn_string: 'dbfs_user@DBFS'
        mount_point: '/mnt/oradbfs'
        mount_opts:  'waller,rw,allow_other'
      '/mnt/anotheroradbfs'
        conn_string: 'dbfs_user@DBFS'
        mount_point: '/mnt/anotheroradbfs'
        mount_opts:  'waller,rw,allow_other'

Then somewhere under your hiera hierarchy creates the following files:

  /etc/puppet/data/hiera/common:
    oracle_dbfs::cwallet
    oracle_dbfs::ewallet
    oracle_dbfs::tnsnames
    oracle_dbfs::sqlnet

##Reference

Here, list the classes, types, providers, facts, etc contained in your module. This section should include all of the under-the-hood workings of your module so people know what the module is touching on their system but don't need to mess with things. (We are working on automating this section!)

##Limitations

This module has been tested only on RHEL 6. It should work on RHEL 7 and Centos.

##Development

Since your module is awesome, other users will want to play with it. Let them know what the ground rules for contributing are.
