RAC/ASM Clusterware Installation :: File System Storage Option On 10g?
Sep 30, 2013We have two database servers(10g with OEL 5) to be clustered and two visible disk groups to each of those nodes. So question is can we choose only one disk group as a shared storage leaving the rest one as the redundant copy during database a creation window while installing the database. Because some of us argue that oracle database has a built-in capability to decide on what level of RAID we store our data.

Oct 17, 2013We 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.
Maxtor Shared Storage For RAC?
Aug 29, 2013In one of the book (Personal Oracle Real Application Clusters: Create Oracle 10g Grid Computing) I have seen the detailed explanation to configure Oracle 10g RAC on external disk- MAXTOR A01A200.
Is it possible to configure Oracle 11g Release 2 RAC with two node using MAXTOR disk?
or Is there any other external disk available which I can use it as a shared storage?
Shared Storage For RAC Setup?
Aug 9, 2013I wanted to setup a two node 11g RAC with ASM at my home for learning purpose. I have read many documents to configure shared storage using NFS, Openfiler, VMsetup etc. Is there any hardware available (something like maxtor disk) which is not much expensive to setup a shared storage ?
View 3 Replies View RelatedOracle RAC Shared Storage Dilemma
Jul 26, 2013Some shops run Oracle RAC using "conventional" storage, like emc, netapp, etc. Some shops run Oracle RAC using JBOD, just bunch of disks, all redundancy is managed by ASM.
How would you distinct these two approaches? JBOD approach sounds cheaper, so why serious enterprises are still using traditional conventional storage, like netapp and emc?
RAC & Failsafe :: Oracle Rac Raw Device As Shared Storage
Jul 24, 2012I wish to install 11g r1 RAC on my laptop having linux 4 as platform (on vmware) , for that i prepare 4 partition for that (on node1)
/dev/sdb1 - for ocr
/dev/sdb2 - for voting disk
/dev/sdb3 - for asmdisk group
/dev/sda5 - fro asmdisk group
by assuming external redundancy for ocr and voting disk i kept only one disk
and i configured following in /etc/sysconfig/rawdevices
/dev/raw/raw1 /dev/sdb1 -- ocr
/dev/raw/raw2 /dev/sdb2 -- voting disk
/dev/raw/raw3 /dev/sdb3 -- asmdisk group
/dev/raw/raw4 /dev/sdb5 -- asmdisk group
and my question is how node2 can understat these raw device as shared storage?

RAC/ASM Clusterware Installation :: Candidate Disks Disabled During Installation?
Nov 17, 2013We'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 2 Replies View RelatedClusterware :: Extended RAC / Quorum And Storage On Different Networks?
Mar 5, 2013We use extended RAC 11gR2 on two servers in two different server rooms.Data are stored on ISCSI devices, mounted from "storage" linux hosts on a network called "SAN".Third voting disk is also stored on a ISCSI device mounted from a "quorum" linux host on our "PUBLIC" network.The RAC interconnect link is on a separate "PRIVATE" network.
During tests, when we totally disconnect the "SAN" link between the two servers, clusterware has an undefined behaviour.Sometimes (more often) it crashes, sometimes one node stays alive.At this moment, each RAC server is able to access only the ISCSI storage in its own server room, and the two servers are able to access the third voting disk (because it is on a separate network).
RAC/ASM Clusterware Installation :: Oracle Rac 11g Installation?
Sep 16, 2013Am 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.

Jul 9, 2012Is 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?
RAC/ASM Clusterware Installation :: GI Upgrade From 11.2.0.1 To 11.2.0.3?
Jul 4, 20122 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?

RAC/ASM Clusterware Installation :: Patching Cluster From 11.2.0.1 To 11.2.0.3?
Aug 15, 2012I'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.
