I'm installing Oracle RAC 11.2.0.3 on RHEL6.3. Since the asmlib RPMs are not provided any more (for RHEL6) I am now able to use either a whole disk or a partition.
which method is the better one, what are the advantages and disadvantages of these methods?
I am setting up a RAC cluster in Oracle 11.2.0.3 on two Windows 2008R2 nodes.I have completed all the pre-installation tasks would like to verify this by running:cluvfy comp sys -p database -n allusing the standalone download of cluvfy - I haven't installed any Oracle software as yet. This completes successfully on the remote node but fails on the local node (whichever one I run it from).
There is a lot of output but these seem to be the key problems: [1852@PRDAT217] [Worker 3] [ 2013-10-01 14:44:45.190 BST ] [WindowsSystem.deleteService:876] _WS_ deleteService2: node PRDAT217 Service OracleRemExecService result: 0|Access is denied.[1852@PRDAT217] [Worker 3] [ 2013-10-01 14:44:45.190 BST ] [NativeResult.<init>:91] NativeResult: The String obtained is0|Access is denied.[1852@PRDAT217] [Worker 3] [ 2013-10-01 14:44:45.190 BST ] [NativeResult.<init>:99] The status string is: 0[1852@PRDAT217] [Worker 3] [ 2013-10-01 14:44:45.190 BST ] [NativeResult.<init>:112]

I am using newstart cluster software. currently I have two blade servers in my system and I have configured cluster as well. right now I have one issue. I am using the ip address of 10.34.14.0/28 network for cluster but this can not be accessed from all network so I want to use different range of IP of 10.68.1.0/28 network in the same blade servers. Can I configure two different floating (cluster) IP? the first IP range is for signalling and second IP range 10.68.1.0/28 network is for OMM. I need to use both IP in two blade servers.

We're trying to utilize Oracle RAC 11.2. We want to have two servers in our grid. These two server are installed on a VM using Hyper-V software.
common storage for asm is also developed on a VM using FreeNAS software.Now, when we try to install Grid Infrastructure the disk that is recognized as a extra drive in both servers are disabled and we can't select it as ASM storage. The OS we're using is Windows Server 2008 R2.I have to say the IP requirements are considered and the servers have two IPs.

View 25 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to upgrade GI 11.2.0.1 Enterprise Edition version to 11.2.0.3 STANDARD EDITION?
We have 2 Node RAC with 10.2 DB SE. Last time I think by mistake or not knowing the licensing information GI was upgraded to EE 11.2.0.1 by somebody or may be whatever version of GI is used, it has nothing to do with the license?
I have heard that I can upgrade Grid Infrastructure, but to Standard Edition. Does GI also comes with SE and also just want to know that can I perform this upgrade?
2 Node RAC Prod. GI= 11.2..0.1 , DB = 10.2.0.4 SE
I want to upgrade (out of place) Grid Infrastructure to latest version of 11.2.0.3 and then PSU on top of that.
GI HOME and DB HOME are separated. Database I want to upgrade later on, not with this clusterware upgrade. I have download p10404530_112030_Linux-x86-64_3of7.zip from MOS for upgrading GI.
grid@db1p [rec]: /home/grid > crsctl query crs softwareversion
Oracle Clusterware version on node [db1p] is [11.2.0.1.0]
grid@db1p [rec]: /home/grid > crsctl query crs activeversion
Oracle Clusterware active version on the cluster is [11.2.0.1.0]grid@db1px [ec]: /home/grid > sqlplus / as sysasm
[code]....
1) Is this the correct p10404530_112030_Linux-x86-64_3of7.zip to upgrade GI from 11.2.0.1 to 11.2.03?
2) Do I need a COMPLETE DOWNTIME to upgrade GI on 2 node RAC where DB is STANDARD EDITION but Clusterware is 11.2 as you have seen above..
3) Will this ASM version will also be upgraded along with GI upgrade installer or it must be upgrades separately after GI Upgrade?

Can I use 64 bit OS (Solaris x86) in my PC with VMware. As many software available in 64 bit but not in 32bit.
If I install 64 bit OS , Oracle DB whether it can crash the system or not
I'm a long time Oracle DBA but have only recently started with RAC and have never done any patching or upgrades in a RAC environment.
My environment consists of a 2 node RAC cluster, and 2 physical standbys at separate remote locations.
The database, GI, ASM, and clusterware are all at version 11.2.0.1.
I want to upgrade all components to the latest patchset which is 11.2.0.3. Eventually I also want to apply the latest PSU.
Can I do this without down time? It is a mission critical database where downtime could conceivably endanger lives. If it can't be done with zero downtime, then downtime must be kept to an absolute minimum (minutes, not hours).
I suspect the clusterware needs to be patched first and I do not know whether I can do it on one node at a time.

Is there a difference performance wise if ASM gets two LUNs of 1.7TB (DATA) and 0.6TB (FRA) respectively compared to 17 LUNs of 100GB each (for DATA) and 6 LUNs of 100GB each (for FRA)? Is there a recommended size from Oracle?

I have been reading a lot of documentation regarding oracle services and I have an ok understanding of how they work. However, I have a general question regarding configuring services using Oracle RAC. For instance, if I have a 2 node oracle 11GR2 RAC on a Linux Redhat server. I have an application that connects to a service I have created. I create the service as follows.
srvctl add service -d ORCL_RAC -s APP_SERVICE -r ORCL_RAC1,ORCL_RAC2
The tnsnames contains:
APP_OLTP =
(DESCRIPTION =
(LOAD_BALANCE = ON)
(FAILOVER = ON)
[code]...
My questions are as follows:
1) When I do a 'srvctl status service -d ORCL_RAC', should I see the service running on both nodes of the RAC? Or does it run only one node, then it will fail over to the other when needed?
2) If I have a RAC environment where I see two services created (RAC_SRV1 and RAC_SRV2). I see that RAC_SRV1 is only running on node1 and RAC_SRV2 is only running on node2. There are two applications sharing the same database, one application is using RAC_SRV1 and the other application is using RAC_SRV2. Am I correct in thinking that there is no failover available here? If node1 goes down, the application connecting to RAC_SRV1 will not be able to connect to node2 right?
3) In the case of the scenario in question 2 above, would it be best practise to simply create one service and have both applications connecting to the one service? Could I configure the one service to point connections from one application to node1 and connections from the other application to node2?

Where to take and how to find the latest versions of patches GI Patch Set Update for Windows?
For a DB there is article "*ALERT: Oracle 11g Release 2 (11.2) Support Status and Alerts [ID 880782.1]*". I am signed on notification messages by mail. When article *880782.1* changes, to me the notification message comes. From *880782.1* it is possible to pass in article "*Oracle Database, Networking and Grid Agent Patches for Microsoft Platforms [ID 161549.1]*". Here there are links to the latest versions of patches.
The latest versions for GI Patch Set Update it is possible to look in article "*Oracle Recommended Patches - Oracle Database [ID 756671.1]*" but here is not present Windows platform.

2). Whether It is possible GI Patch Set Update for Windows to find by means of searching on tab MOS "*Patches & Updates*"?
