RAC/ASM Clusterware Installation :: (INS-40916) Single-instance Version Of (CSS) Are Detected?
Mar 16, 2013
I am configuring Grid Infrastructure 11g2 on node A, one of two cluster nodes, and getting the following message:
[INS-40916] Single-instance versions of Cluster Synchronization Services (CSS) are detected.
I executed runInstaller and installed software-only on both A and B nodes. It apparently the other node has already CSS instance running, and maybe caused by the installation.I remove the software from A first?
How do I stop CSS on the node A, and let the configuratoin to continue on this node B
I would like to use Oracle Grid Infrastructure to protect a single-instance database.
I found these docs:

I was unable to find a similar document for GI 11.2 . Do you know if such a document exists?
At the moment I only know that the GI is free if used for an Oracle Product, but I am not shure whether it can be used to protext external applications or single-instance databases
i have installed grid(crs+asm) on my two linux node(Enterprise linux 5) setup, using openfiler(SAN) , i have configure grid Home like ORACLE_ HOME=/ u01/ home/app/11.2.0/grid.
1) i don't get any instance specific asm parameter file like init+ASM1.ora instead of that i got ab_+ASM1.dat, hc_+ASM1.dat, init.ora, orapw+ASM four files, do i need to create ASM instance specific parameter manually to create diskgroup in the same location,
2) +DATA diskgroup has been created while grid installation, but when i try to create database, its giving me error diskgroup +DATA doesn't exit or not mount, but when i check it shows me mount like below $cd $ORACLE_HOME/dbs (here oracle home is grid home)$export ORACLE_SID=+ASM1$sqlplus / as sysdba>select name,state from v$asm_diskgroup; name state DATA Mounted even i cant able to dismount diskgroup DATA, it throws an error insufficient privilege.
3) After grid installation how can one create diskgroup i mean what needs to exported as ORACLE_SID like in 10g we have $export ORACLE_SID=+ASM1 then creat diskgroup.
I am trying to design a database consolidation high-availability cluster for Oracle 11g R2 64-bit Enterprise Edition (X86-64) on Oracle Linux 6.x UEK, using Oracle 11.2.0.3 (the latest as of Aug 2012).
We don't need RAC Multi-Node now or in foreseeable future because none of the databases we run break the capacity of a single node. Likewise, we don't need to use Oracle VM to virtualise the database instances.
We plan to use SGA and PGA memory management to run multiple instances on same hardware operating on a single Linux 64-bit O/S image.Does it sound ok so far?
Two or three of 4-socket, 40-core Intel 64-bit servers with 512GB of RAM each (relatively cheap at today's HW commodity prices) will be sufficient to run all Oracle databases we have on Linux 64-bit.So the two HA options that I know of are:
(1) use Oracle Clusterware/Grid/ASM to provide for instance failover (2) use Oracle RAC One Node on top of Clusterware/Grid/ASM
As I understand it RAC One Node is significantly more expensive than the "free" Oracle Clusterware/ASM/Grid (since we own Oracle 11.2.0.3 Enterprise Licences already). So why should my employer pay for RAC One Node licence given they already own Single Instance Fail-Over and Restart protection from Clusterware/Grid/ASM ?
I also read that Data Guard 11.2 may not be supported with RAC One Node on 11.2? True? Will same Data Guard 11.2 work with a Single-Instance Failover running on Clusterware/Grid/ASM ?
-Who is running RAC One Node? Why? -Who is running Single Instance Failover with Clusterware? Why? -Who is using Data Guard with either of the above?
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 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).

I am trying to install Oracle RAC installation w/ guest OS OracleLinux6 on Virtualbox/Mac OS.But getting problem to set network & ip setting and yum is not able to reach oracle repository.
if anyone tried installing Oracle RAC installation w/ guest OS OracleLinux6 on Virtualbox on intel based Mac OS.
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.
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?
I'm trying to test moving a single instance 11202 database to single instance w/ grid infra.
Here is what I've done:
1. Install a database (11202), single instance and create a database 2. Install Grid Software only (user: grid) 3. start the cluster 4. "srvctl add database -d orclsidb -o $ORACLE_HOME" to register the database with grid. 4.1> I was able to start/stop the database with srvctl command here onwards 5. configure disks using asmlib and start the asm 6. "srvctl add asm" to register asm with grid. 7. PROBLEM ... when I try to "backup as copy database format '+ASM_DATA_DG';" from oracle user it errors out as below:
RMAN> backup as copy database format '+ASM_DATA_DG';

I will begin to install Oracle Clusterware (11gR2), but I need to know how much space should I apply for the ASM instance? What size should I apply the shared disk to the nodes?
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.
i am configuring asm on clusterware when i create instance on node1 and node 2 a message screen appear " Cant start asm instance on node 2)When i start asm instance manually on node 2 i found the below error in alert log file.

Is 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?
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?
When I use 'ONSCTL PING' to test the ons status, it says: configure localport and remoteport directives and attempt to start ONS server again.ons is not running.The content of D:app11.2.0gridopmnconfons.config is:
localport=6100 # line added by Agent allowgroup=true usesharedinstall=true remoteport=6200 # line added by Agent nodes=rac1:6200,rac2:6200 # line added by Agent
The content of D:app11.2.0gridopmnconfons.config.rac2 is: localport=6100 # line added by Agent allowgroup=true usesharedinstall=true remoteport=6200 # line added by Agent nodes=rac1:6200,rac2:6200 # line added by Agent
The configuration file is almost the same in rac1.But the output of 'srvctl status nodeapps' is :
ons is enabled ons is running on node1:rac1 ons is running on node2:rac2
tried to mount a big endian asm disk (AIX for example) on little endian env (linux x86)? I have a disk that KFED is able to read but ASM is unable to mount it due to endianess incompatibility.
We try to upgrade the 10g to 11g oracle instance and asm instance.Below steps we r done;
1)First we are install the 11.2.0.3 database and grid infrastructure in separate home.
2)after that i try to upgrade asm instance so i drop old 10g asm localconfig cd $ORACLE10g_HOME./localconfig deletecd $ORACLE11g_HOME./localconfig add but here i can not find localconfig Note:database and grid installed without error....
3)Even we are try dbua but it run 10g dbua we are not able to run dbua for 11g
4)inventory is corrupted how to recreate inventory
5)provide the steps for upgrade 10g asm to 11g asm
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.
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?
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?
