Oracle VM 2 Node RAC cluster Oracle 11G 11.2.0.3.0 Oracle 11g rel 2 GI
on current 2 node cluster we have GI and RAC db configured Nodes: vmorarac1,vmorarac2
we shutdown vmorarac1 to clone it to vmorarac5
on new node I have changed the hostname to vmorarac5 In /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 change ip to new ip and same for /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 152.144.199.210,152.144.199.211
mad echanges to /etc/hosts on vmorarac1/2 for 2 new IP address assigned to vmorarac5
We have 2 servers running Oracle 11gR2 Window server 2008 64 bit RAC. Today I add new shared disk visible from both servers. All our data placed on ASM partitions, but we need Windows volume for exchanging some data between servers & users;Actions:then i have prepare disk on shared storage from 1st node, run diskmfmt.msc & rescan disks when windows recognizes new hdd, initialize it.create an Extended partition & Logical drive & Assign drive letter. from another nodes, make sure no drive letter is assigned.
Sometimes Windows automatically assign drive letter. If drive letter is assigned, right click & Change drive letter & Remove. from 1st node, format this logical drive using ocfsFormat.exe after execute below scripts i have face some issues
E:app11.2.0gridcfs>ocfsformat /m P: /c 1024 /v DATA /f /d /aReg Get Cluster Name(): Reg Query ValueEx for CFS_CLUSTER_NAME failed with error 203
This indicates that the Cluster Name has not been configured on this node for OCFSThe volume formatted in this condition will be seen by all nodes running OCFS.
I am installing Oracle 10g Clusterware in RHEL 5 Server. When i run root.sh in the second node the last step Running vipca(silent) for configuring nodeapps failed. Then i run VIPCA manually in second node and configured vip configuration successfully,but when i checked the post-checks for cluster services the Checking existence of VIP node application,Checking existence of ONS node application and Checking existence of GSD node application in second node failed. I am able to ping both the servers one another with vip name successfully and the CSS,CRS and EVM appears healthy in both nodes. 1. Does the vip configuration is proper? If no what is causing this error and how to rectify it? Find the output below
I am installing Oracle Grid Infratructure 11.2.0.3 on OEL 6.3...I reached the final step, running the root.sh on node 1. It succsessfully started the services but then I got this error:
Failed to create voting files on disk group OCR_VOTING. Change to configuration failed, but was successfully rolled back. CRS-4000: Command Replace failed, or completed with errors.
Voting file add failed Failed to add voting disks at /opt/oracle/11.2.0/grid/crs/install/crsconfig_lib.pm line 6780. +/opt/oracle/11.2.0/grid/perl/bin/perl -I/opt/oracle/11.2.0/grid/perl/lib -I/opt/oracle/11.2.0/grid/crs/install /opt/oracle/11.2.0/grid/crs/install/rootcrs.pl execution failed+
OCR_VOTING Diskgroup is configured using oracleasm:
oracleasm createdisk OCR_VOTING /dev/sdb1/dev/sdb1 is a partition and has been created ot the LUN /dev/sdb using fdisk.
Here is part of logfile of the root.sh - tool. Meanwhile I tried deinstalling the clusterware and cleaning up, then I verified the server configuration with cluvfy and all was OK.
I have a single node Oracle E-Biz 12.1.3 Installation.We plan to convert this to a dual node RAC install and I wanted to run by the steps to perform this AND clone over the current production system to the new RAC system (note this will not be using ASM - but will be based on NetApp NFS)
1. Install GRID 11.2.0.3 - installed acorss two nodes, Binaries can be shared - voting disks / cluster rigistry MUST be shared
2. Install Database Software for RAC - Binaries cannot be shared and must be installed on each node independently
3. Configure the GRID for database (database / listeners)
4. Clone over the stand alone system (clone database as RAC)
I will be using SCAN - and therefore would expect all the web services / concurrent manager nodes to point to the SCAN hostname as opposed to individual host names.
I'm doing some testes installing grid 11.2.0.3 32bits software on a OEL6 32bits (virtual box environment). The problem appeared where i ran root.sh script on node 1. The following error appeared to me:
clscfg: -install mode specified Successfully accumulated necessary OCR keys. Creating OCR keys for user 'root', privgrp 'root'.. Operation successful. CRS-4256: Updating the profile
the output was "The cluster node addition <path> was successful".
But when I tried the following command,
CODEcluvfy stage -post nodeadd -node3
I got an error stating
QUOTE "ERROR: Shared resources check for node addition failed
The following node is not in cluster: node3
Post-check for node addition was unsuccessful on all the nodes."
When I checked the inventory logs, I found the following entry
QUOTE SEVERE:

I am getting "ORA-03114: not connected to ORACLE" while installing "Oracle Database 11GR2" on "Oracle RAC 11R2" cluster setup. I am getting this error at the time of "Oracle Database Configuration Assistant" configuration reaches till 39% on HP-UX 11.31 IA64 platform.
I want to install Oracle Grid software 11g R2. What is the Latest Oracle Grid software 11g R2 version available?Is it 11.2.0.1 or 11.2.0.3?If it is 11.2.0.3, is it available in metalink download, because I see only 11.2.0.1 version in metalink download?
Am planning to install oracle RAC 11g on linux server. Have doubt on installation of clusterware or grid infrastructure first .?I think grid infrastructure covers clusterware and ASM both and then oracle 11g software to be installed. But how to download grid insfrastructure software. Will it come with oracle 11g software..? or need to download it seperately.? Because when i try to download oracle RAC 11g which gives link to download the 11g software not grid.
We have an Oracle 9i (9.2.0.7) two-node RAC database running on Solaris 5.8. Recently we have switched our production database from no archive log mode to archive log. We changed the parameter CLUSTER_DATABASE=FALSE on one of the instances before converting and reverted back.why this parameter needs to be changed to false?
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
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?
We are in process of upgrading 10g (RAC) database to 11g(RAC), does the oracle client software must also be upgraded to 11g or the 10g client can be used for 11g database connectivity, since there are thousands of end users it is very difficult to upgrade all the clients.What is the best approach for client software?
I'm installing Oracle Grid 11gr2 on windows 2003 server. I installed successfully without domain controller. But when i try to install with Active Domain controller i faced following error
I would like to know that when the private network in oracle rac down, which is the preferable node in the cluster (cluster of 2 nodes) to takeover the cluster.
Can I set/get the failover policy to point to one node in the cluster?
I want to install an active / passive Oracle Configuration for our new 11gR2 system. We do not want to go full blown RAC as yet. We already have an 11gR2 instance that I plan to CLONE to the production server(s).
So. detail the steps that I need to follow .
i.e. configure the 2 servers (VIFs/Interconnects) Install GRID/CRS Clone over the database (do I do this as a SINGLE NODE RAC?)
After installing a 4 node cluster 11.2.0.3 with 16 CPU's (4 on each node) on IBM 795 with aix 6.1 each server is using 0.5 CPU with no user load on the system. Running SIHA on one server typically uses 0.05 CPU with no user load on the system.
