  • Help required for temporary removing node 2 from the cluster

    Hi Support,
    There are some hardware issues on node 2 of 11g RAC cluster and vendor going to fix it;
    We want to make node 2 not available until they fix it;
    The user will continue with node 1 of the cluster;
    Following are the current status of the site and I'm considering to perform the folowing task
    while the folllowing command from node 1, i got the following output
    D:\srvctl status database –d EPVAL
    Instance epval1 is running on node corskmaps001
    Instance epval2 is running on node corskmaps001
    D:\srvctl status database –d EPPROD
    Instance epprod1 is running on node corskmaps001
    Instance epprod2 is running on node corskmaps001
    I made the following steps in chorological order; I appreciate if someone can correct me if I made any mistake or add/amend/update as per requirement.
    Assuming corskmaps002 is our passive mode which will be taken away by HP for hardware checking;
    srvctl stop instance –d EPPROD -i EPPROD2
    srvctl stop instance –d EPVAL -i EPVAL2
    srvctl stop listerner_corskmaps002 –n corskmaps002
    srvctl stop nodeapps -n corskmaps002
    Do we require stopping service also once we stop the instance? Following are the commands if your answer is yes;
    srvctl stop service -d EPROD -i EPPROD2
    srvctl stop service -d EPVAL -i EPVAL2
    srvctl disable service -d EPPROD -s EPPROD2
    srvctl disable service -d EPVAL -s EPVAL2
    I appreciate help
    Thanks

    Hi Bjoern,
    I agree with you, very valid point, thanks for that;
    Just for clarification, do you thing the sequence should be like this?
    ********disable command to start with***********
    srvctl disable service -d EPPROD -s EPPROD2
    srvctl disable service -d EPVAL -s EPVAL2
    *********than instance stop commad**********
    srvctl stop instance –d EPPROD -i EPPROD2
    srvctl stop instance –d EPVAL -i EPVAL2
    ************than listener stopping command********
    srvctl stop listerner_corskmaps002 –n corskmaps002
    *************than node stopping command*********
    srvctl stop nodeapps -n corskmaps002
    *********do we also require stopping of the service ?>***************************
    Do we require stopping service also once we stop the instance? Following are the commands if your answer is yes;
    srvctl stop service -d EPROD -i EPPROD2
    srvctl stop service -d EPVAL -i EPVAL2
    Can you please eleborate further
    Then, you also might want to add '-o transactional' or "transactional local" to the
    instance stop command so that running transactions are not affected by this.
    Thanks

  • Help required for RAC backup

    Hello Support,
    We have Oracle 11g R1 RAC enviornement on Windows 2003 Enterprise.
    We want to take full database backup to restore in case of any failure.
    We are planning to install Oracle on single instance to different hardware and location having same windows.
    I appreciate to have proper steps for analysis please.
    Currently what are considering are;
    - Shutdown RAC database
    - Copy control/datafile/redo log files
    - paste to other hardware
    - using Oracle configuration manager to create template for the existing RAC database.
    please add further steps for anaylsis
    Thanks

    Copy the Cold Backup.
    Startup one instance of the database.
    And that's it. You are DONE.
    If you want to do a cleaner job you can also
    Disable the second instance (thread) and then drop the Redo Log Groups of that thread on the Single Node after you have copied the Cold Backup.
    I agree with your customer and disagree with the other posters in this thread. A Cold Backup Restore is much much easier than an RMAN Duplicate.
    The documentation, unfortunately, covers scenarios where you delete an ORACLE_HOME and/or a Node from an existing RAC Cluster :
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/rac.111/b28254/adddelwin.htm#CHDFAEJB
    See the ALTER DATABASE commands : DISABLE INSTANCE and DROP LOGFILE clauses.
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28286/statements_1004.htm#i2079942
    Do these only the the second database server where you copy the Cold Backup.
    Do NOT DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT do anything on the actual RAC environment !!

  • RAC: When 1st node started, the 2nd node failed to start

    I got a problem in Oracle 10gR2 RAC on Windows 2003R2 Domain member environment. I have a 2 nodes RAC using ASM in 2 MS Windows 2003 Standard Server, it is a clean environment, only have Oracle and Norton Antivirus software installed.
    When the 1st node started successfully from booting up the machine, the 2nd node is failed to startup. It stays in the Windows startup screen (Applying Computer Setting ...) for more then 1 hour. Eventually, the window login screen come out, but I cannot login to the system after input username and password. This situation is reversable (the 1st node failed to start if I startup the 2nd node first).
    In case I set the Oracle Services (OracleCRService and OracleEVMService) into Manual startup at 2nd Nodes, the 2nd node can startup smoothly. After login to the 2nd node, I can start these 2 oracle services without problem.
    P.S. This problem is just happened after applied I applied all MS Security Update on 10 Apr, 2008.
    Any suggestion how to shoot this problem? Thanks.

    A couple of things you could try :
    a) Disable the Norton AntiVirus Software and check whether rebooting the
    Server allows the CRS stack to come up. Recall reading about an issue
    where-in NAV waits for the Network Stack to come up and blocks
    CRS's startup sequence. This is just a guess at this time but worth a try.
    b) You might also want to check if configuring Oracle Process Manager as detailed
    in Note:358156.1 allows the CRS stack to be delayed long enough to fully
    initialize the OS stack beneath it.
    c) If none of the above helps , you might want to uninstall the MS Security Update
    to check if this was a problem introduced by this Patch. You might then have
    to work with MS / Oracle to dig further into this.
    Do update this thread with your observations on this ..

  • Oracle RAC one node-11.2.0.1 with patch 9004119

    Hi,
    I'm slightly stuck here. I have successfully converted 11.2.0.1 2 node RAC to RAC one node with patch *9004119*(which has scripts required for racone). My single instances are up and running, relocation of databases go fine
    As i launch my OEM, it pops with +"ORA-12505:TNS:listener does not currently know of SID given in connect descriptor".+ . Obviously, ./Raconeinit renames the DB instances, but doesn't get changed in OEM. It still lists my old instances.
    I manually change ORACLE_SID to new instances in all my nodes, so i'm able to connect through sql, but how do i configure it in DB control so that the change is seen universally. Any application i run with the new instance gives me the above mentioned error.
    Please respond!

    Hi,
    In continuation with my above query, i did some search and looked at 'raconeinit' script. It's basically trying to run certain commands to see the current server, free server, current running DB , stores the value in a variable and validates against the input I provide, which is not happening.
    When i manually try to run the commands mentioned in script, it gives me invalid -i and -f options errors.
    to see DB up:
    +./crsctl status resource ora.$LOWER_DB_NAME.db | $GREP -i "^STATE" | $GREP -i "ONLINE" | $WC -l+
    to see current server
    +./crsctl status resource ora.$LOWER_DB_NAME.db | $GREP -i "STATE" | $AWK -F'ONLINE on ' '{print $2}'+
    to see free servers
    +./crsctl stat serverpool Free -v|$GREP -i active_servers|$AWK -F'=' '{print $2}'+
    It is not accepting my input (free server) and hence exiting. :(

  • Oracle Applications 11i Load Balancing does not work with RAC one Node

    Hi all,
    Could you help me to resolve this issue.
    Architecture environment is :
    - One APPS tier node
    - Two nodes Oracle Database Appliance (Primary node 1 holds INSTANCE_1 et Secondary node is configurured to holds INSTANCE_2), i.e RAC one Node.
    - The primary node have instance_name SIGM_1 and the secondary node have instance_name SIGM_2, but in RAC one node, the secondary instance is not alive.
    We convert our EBS 11i environment to RAC following note ID Using Oracle 11g Release 2 Real Application Clusters with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 11i [ID 823586.1].
    When testing Database failover, Oracle Applications 11i load balancing does not work anymore.
    The root cause is that, when the primary node of the Rac one node is down, the INSTANCE_NAME_1 is automaically relocating to the surviving node,.
    During test failover, we imagine that when the primary node goes down, the secondary node start or relocate database with instance_name SIGM_2, and in that case the Oracle Applications load balancing works.
    Currently, when the primary node goes down, the instance_name SIGM_1 is relocated on the secondary node, which cause failure of Oracle Applications Load Balancing.
    Thank you for your advice.

    This is something I observed a long time ago for Safari (ie: around version 1). I'm not sure this is Safari, per se, but OpenSSL that is responsible for the behavior. I'm pretty sure Chrome does this and I've seen some Linux browsers do it.
    What I have done at the last two companies I've worked for is recommend that our clients do not use SSL SessionID as the way of tracking sticky sessions on web servers, but instead using IP address. This works in nearly all cases and has few downsides. The other solution is to use some sort of session sharing on your web servers to mitigate the issue (which also means that your web servers aren't a point of failure for your users' sessions). (One of the products I supported had no session information stored on the web servers, so we could safely round-robin requests, the other product could be implemented with a Session State Server... but in most cases we just used IP address to load balance with). The other solution is to configure your load balancer to terminate the SSL tunnel. You get some other benefits from this, such as allowing your load balancer to reduce the number of actual connections to the web servers. I've seen many devices setup this way.
    One thing to consider through this is that - due to the way internet standards work - this really can't be termed a bug on anyone's part. There is no guarantee in the SSL/TLS standards that a client will return the same SSL Session ID for each request and there is not requirement that subsequent requests will even use the same tunnel. Remember, HTTP is a stateless protocol. Each request is considered a new request by the web server and everything else is just trickery to try and get it to work the way you want. You can be annoyed at Safari's behavior, but it's been this way for over 5 years by my count, so I don't expect it to change.

  • Trying out RAC one node on Windows

    Hi all,
    I have the Grid infrastructure software installed on a 64 bit windows server (standalone - not clustered). Was trying to install an 11g RAC enabled database on said server and it won't install as complains it is not a cluster.
    Is it possible to install a RAC enabled Database on a One node grid server that is not clustered to another node?
    Any help would be much appreciated as trying to get knowledge with GRID and RAC enabled instances.
    Edited by: user13735858 on 10-Feb-2011 06:26

    Hi,
    Thanks I installed "Real Application Clusters without Oracle Clusterware" for single standalone server - and it installed without issues.Have you installed Oracle RAC without Clusterware?
    There is some misunderstanding or you did not install Oracle RAC because Oracle Clusterware is a requirement for using Oracle RAC and it is the only clusterware that you need for most platforms on which Oracle RAC operates.
    Although Oracle RAC continues to support select third-party clusterware products on specific platforms, you must also install and use Oracle Clusterware.
    Oracle grid infrastructure for a standalone server does not support RAC.
    GI Standalone Server is intended to use feature Oracle Restart and Automatic Storage Management (ASM).
    The Oracle grid infrastructure for a standalone server is the Oracle software that provides system support for an Oracle database including volume management, file system, and automatic restart capabilities. If you plan to use Oracle Restart or Automatic Storage Management, you must install the grid infrastructure before installing your database.
    The grid infrastructure for a standalone server is the software that includes Oracle Restart and Automatic Storage Management. Oracle combined the two infrastructure products into a single set of binaries that is installed as the grid infrastructure home. The grid infrastructure should be installed before installing Oracle Database 11g Release 2.
    My question is does the server for one node have to be part of a cluster before you can install a RAC instance, even if you intend the instance to remain as one node RAC?1- You must Install and Configure Oracle Clusterware, even if it is only one node.
    2 - Install Oracle Software Database (RAC)
    3 - Create your RAC Database.
    RAC or RAC One Node must be configured on Oracle Clusterware.

    Can I just retry the root.sh on the 2nd node?  or, do I have to do some sort of cleanup and then retry?  Please advise....  Thanks, Adolfo

    Are you using raw disk devices for Oracle 11g RAC? You might want to move to ASM. For starters, your version, 11.1 is no longer fully supported by Oracle Corp. You'll need to be on 11.2.0.3 or higher to be supported. The 11.2.0.3 version loses Extended Support in August I think. The 11.2.0.4 version loses Extended Support in January. All of this means your production Oracle RAC database should be on the 12c version by January. And guess what? Oracle 12c RAC does not support raw disk devices.
    Since you're starting with this cluster fresh, why not aim for a configuration that will allow you to go forth into the foreseeable future without major configuration changes?
    Cheers,

  • Oracle RAC one node

    why Oracle introduced Oracle RAC one node in 11gR2?
    I have gone through oracle documents on oracle rac one node, but i couldn't find much added advantage than instance failover. We have already some technologies like datagaurd and some third party softwares for instance failover.
    Then why oracle introduced this RAC one node in the new release i.e 11gR2?
    What exactly oracle wants to provide from oracle RAC one node?
    Thanks...

    Why RAC one node?
    Oracle RAC one node is a single instance of Oracle RAC that runs on the node in a cluster. The benefit of the RAC one node option is that it allows you to consolidate many databases into one cluster without a lot of overhead, while also providing high availbilty benefits of failover protection, as well as for Online rolling patch application and rolling upgrades for the Oracle clusterware.
    Another aspect of RAC one node allows you to limit th CPU utilization of individual database instances within the cluster through a feature called resource manager instance caging, which gives you the ability to dynamilcally change the limit as required.
    Furhtermore , with RAC one node there is no limitation for server scalabilty such that if applications outgrow the current resources than a single node can supply, you can then upgrade the applications online to Oracle RAC.
    In tthe event that the node which is runnig Oracle RAc one node becomes saturated and out of resources, you can migrate the instance to another node in the cluster using Oracle rac one node and another new utilty called OMOTION feature.OMOTION feature for Oracle RAC 11g R2 rac allows you to migrate a running instance to another server without downtime or distrubtion in service for your enviornment.
    Hope you're understand.

  • Database upgrade - Oracle 10g r2 ,RAC(2 Nodes with ASM) upgrade from HP-UX to RHEL 5.9

    Hi All
    I am planning to upgrade our RAC database 2 nodes with ASM from HP-UX to RHEL 5.9.
    Following is our setup
    Current setup:
    Oracle Database 10g r2 (10.2.0.5.0) RAC database.
    Nodes: 2
    Storage: ASM
    OS: HP-UX ia64
    Database Size: 1.2 TB
    New Setup:
    Oracle Database 10g r2(10.2.0.5.0) RAC database
    Nodes: 2
    Storage: ASM
    OS: RHEL 5.9 x86 64
    Since we are moving from a big endian format to a small endian format(HP-UX to RHEL 5.9) the same ASM cannot be used.
    Kindly help me with process and other important documents to be followed.
    Thanks.

    Hi...
    If it was a standlone database concepts like transportable tablespaces, rman would have been convenient.
    Since we are using a RAC database with ASM as storage how do we use these techniques specified in NOTE:733205.1
    Due to endianness issue we cannot use the same ASM instance.
    Along with the new RAC node install a new ASM instance would have to be created.
    Kindly help me with migration for RAC with existing ASM to new Hardware
    Thanks and Regards

  • RAC One Node: downtime after HW-outage?

    Hi ,
    RAC One Node seems to be a good alternative compared to a "regular" RAC.
    Since we don't have any experience with RAC One Node we are currently going through the available documentaion and try to get a picture of the advantages/disadvantages.
    One major point is the question "what will exactly happen when an HW-failure or outage occurs?". It's my understanding - and what Oracle has documented - that the Oracle Clusterware provides failover protection to Oracle RAC One Node. If the node fails, Oracle Clusterware will automatically detect the failure and restart the Oracle RAC One Node database on another server in the pool.
    In our case we would have the active node in Datacenter 1, the passive node in Datacenter 2. Therefore if the node in Datacenter 1 fails, the database should then get started on the node in Datacenter 2.
    My questions now are:
    - will that really automatically be done?
    - what happens to the sessions which were connected to the database before the HW-failure?
    - is it possible to determine how long this failover will take?
    I'm sure that somebody has already tested this situation - any help will be appreciated.

    Hi,
    My questions now are:
    - will that really automatically be done?Yes, automatically and transparent
    - what happens to the sessions which were connected to the database before the HW-failure?Depend if you are using Omotion the connection will be redirected to another node, if you are cold failover the client will be have a short downtime.
    - is it possible to determine how long this failover will take?Depend of failure, but normal (could failover) is on range from 1 to 3 minutes, using (omotion- hot failover) no downtime.
    Read it :
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/products/clustering/overview/ug-raconenode-2009-130760.pdf?ssSourceSiteId=otncn
    Maybe this can clarify your issues.
    Any question just ask.
    Regards,

    PS: Ignore use of Omotion if you have "downtime after HW-outage". Consider only cold failover.
