Questions about RAC

I was reading the article about installing the RAC.
My conclussion , I can have till 127 instaces of a Oracle 10G database, working simultane. That is good really good and powerfull.
My questions
1º). ¿Can I have , by example, 3 , or any other number, of computer working with a HTMLDB instance or Oracle Aplication Server everyone serving pages to Internet and all then conect to one of those nodes? I think that yes, but prefer confirmation
2º) In case of failure of any of these nodes, broken computer ,by example, and I need to replace it, or I want add new nodes to a RAC system. ¿How I can do this? or ¿Where I can find documentation about this?
thanks for your help.

Is posting Question about RAC some kind of thought experiment on clustering? Like, if you post the same question several tyimes do you get faster answers?
Cheers, APC

  • Question about RAC and ASM

    Hi,
    We are thinking about build RAC using ASM for OEM database. It'll have two nodes, oracle 10g and Hitachi san with solaris ( or linux ). I've few questions about RAC and ASM.
    1) Do I need to have ASM instance running on each node ? ( most likely yes... but want to make sure )
    2) can I share oracle_home between ASM instance and database instance ? what is the best choice ?
    3) I'm planning to use shared disks for all files, all databases.... what are the pros/cons ?
    4) what should be the installation procedure ? Meaning, first create ASM instance on each node, then install cluster software, build RAC databases...... can someone explain..
    5) I believe RMAN is the only option for backup since I'm using ASM, correct ?
    I'm a newbie to RAC and ASM..
    Thanks,

    2) can I share oracle_home between ASM instance and database instance ? what is the best choice ?in 10g you can, in 11gr2 you cannot. and it might be better to seperate them because it will give you more flexibility with patching.
    3) I'm planning to use shared disks for all files, all databases.... what are the pros/cons ?if you share your oracle_home you won't be able to do rolling updates. so i recommend to keep oracle_homes local.
    4) what should be the installation procedure ? Meaning, first create ASM instance on each node, then install cluster software, build RAC databases...... can someone explain..follow the install guide for your respective version. for 10g you'd install clusterware first, then asm and database is last.
    5) I believe RMAN is the only option for backup since I'm using ASM, correct ?pretty much. you could stop your database and dump the raw devices or use asmcmd/asmftp but rman is definitely the best choice

    Have you checked the RAC installation guides? The biggest thing is to set up each set of interconnects on its own subnet to prevent routing issues.
    Ssince I assume you are doing this for redundancy purposes, teamed NICs are another good idea that don't require a lot of re-configuration of Oracle.

  • Question about RAC 10g on server running AIX and domain name changes

    We have several 10g clusters running on IBM p-Series AIX servers, and our company is changing the domain name for our network. I am concerned that if we do not change the domain names in the TNSNAMES.ora file and also the /etc/hosts file on each server, the cluster will no longer function. We are using CRS (version 10.2.0.3) and ASM within each cluster.
    Does anyone know where I can find information about changing the domain name that was set up as part of the CRS and database installs for RAC? Does anyone have experience doing this, and would be willing to share a few insights? Thanks in advance for any advice you can give!

    You may be able to use the VIPCA utility for RAC to change or modify the public and private settings for your domain names on AIX. Also, the Oracle 10g DBCA "Database Configuration Assistant" should be of use to change your settings for your RAC environment.
    Also, see here for a good IBM Redbook that covers Oracle 10g RAC on AIX platforms:

  • Question about RAC DB.

    Hi all,
    I have problem with RAC 11gR2 database.
    I have 2 node configured in RAC environment, RAC1 in Linux_1 and RAC2 on Linux_2.
    After RAC environment reboot I discovered that my databases started up in different nodes. RAC1 DB stared on Linux_2 and RAC2 on Linux_1. I tried to restart database with srvctl command but unfortunately I got same results.
    Please help me to understand how to start each DB exactly on node which I want and how avoid from this situation.
    My environment Grid Infrastructure /RAC/ASM/SCAN/GNS11gR2 on OEL 5.7.
    ./thanks

    Hi above example which i gave will do something like this in background.
    1) It will update the OCR and modify configuration of Instance, it will tell cluster that on which node instance has to start
    2) It will update the instance dependency on ASM running under this node.
    So first we modify the OCR to tell cluster that instance1 has to run on node1 and secondly cluster will see it is depended upon ASM1.
    thanks everything is clear now !
    To see configuration you can run
    srvctl config database -d databasenameHere my output
    *[grid@rac1 ~]$ srvctl config database -d rock*
    Database unique name: ROCK
    Database name: ROCK

    So how can I find out that RAC1 instance will start only on RAC1 node ?

  • Question about RAC interconnect

    Hi all,
         If I want to set up a RAC with multiple interconnects. Is there any specific configuration on the NIC? I am using SUN. Thanks!

  • Question about DBCA generate script o create RAC database 2 node cluster

    Question about creating two node RAC database 11g after installing and configuration 11g clusterware. I've used DBCA to generate script to create a rac database. I've set
    environment variable ORACLE_SID=RAC and the creating script creates instance of RAC1 and RAC2. My understanding is that each node will represent a node, however there should only be one database with a name of 'RAC'. Please advise

    You are getting your terminology mixed up.
    You only have one database. Take a look, there are one set of datafiles on shared storage.
    You have 2 instances which are accessing one database.
    Database name is RAC. Instance names are RAC1, RAC2, etc, etc.
    Also, if you look at the listener configuration and if your tnsnames is setup properly then connecting to RAC will connect you to either one of the instances wheras connecting to RAC1 will connect you to that instance.

  • Crs question for rac

    on RH ES3 Update 5, Oracle 10.1.0.3....
    Due to some network reconf. I reinstalled CRS.
    I reconfigured VIPCA and NETCA.
    My current status on this rac is:
    VIP is running on node: hp1
    GSD is running on node: hp1
    Listener is running on node: hp1
    ONS daemon is running on node: hp1
    Problem: When I reboot, none of these resources come up automatically. How can i configure so that it can start during reboot.
    Thanks in advance,
    VT

    The term rolling upgrade refers to upgrading different databases or different instances of the same database in a RAC environment, one at a time, without stopping the database. Oracle supports the rolling upgrade of Oracle RAC (not OS like I wrote previously) in a cluster when both versions of the operating system are certified with the version of the Oracle Database you are running. Rolling patch upgrades are not available if the Oracle Database software is shared across the different nodes. This is the case where the Oracle home is on Cluster File System (CFS) or on shared NFS volumes. The feature is only available where each node has its own copy of the Oracle Database software.
    I doubt that Redhat or Oracle Linux will support in-place upgrades from version 4 to 5. Your only option really available might be to split the RAC cluster and completely setup each node from scratch, than rebuild the cluster. There could be of few changes between EL 4 and 5 that may affect your ability to run a mixed cluster, i.e. raw device support. Sorry, I'm afraid I cannot give you any other practical advise. Perhaps you might want to check the RAC forum at RAC, ASM & Clusterware Installation
    To answer you question about the difference with Oracle Linux. The same versions of Oracle Linux and Red Hat Enterprise are binary compatible. For Oracle Linux 5.5, x86_64, you have an option to install the Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel (UEK), which contains a newer and Oracle optimized version of the kernel, currently 2.6.32. Oracle Linux provides a free public yum repository for software management and other Oracle specific packages. For access to patches you need a subscription to the Unbreakable Linux Network (ULN).

    My HP, purchased in June 2012, died on Saturday.  I was working in recently installed Photoshop, walked away from my computer to answer the phone and when I came back the screen was blank.  When I turned it on, I got a Windows Error Recovery message.  The computer was locked and wouldn't let me move the arrow keys up or down and hitting f8 didn't do anything. 
    I'm not happy with HP.  Any suggestions?

  • Questions about using the Voice Memos app

    I'm currently an Android user, but will be getting an iPhone 6 soon. My most used app is the voice memos app on my Android phone. I have a couple questions about the iPhone's built-in voice memos app.
    -Am I able to transfer my voice memos from my Android phone to my iPhone, so my recordings from my Android app will show up in the iPhone's voice memos app?
    -When exporting voice memos from the iPhone to computer, are recordings in MP3 format? If not, what format are they in?
    -In your opinion, how is the recording quality of the voice memos app?

    You cannot import your Android voice memos to your iPhone's voice memo app.  You might be able to play the Android memos and have the iPhone pick up the audio and record it.
    Here is the writeup about sending voice memos from the iPhone to your computer (from the iPhone User Guide):
    App quality is excellent.

  • Some questions about Muse

    First of all, I would like to say that I am very impressed with how well Muse works and how easy it was to create a website that satisfies me. Before I started a daily updated website I thought I would encounter many problems I will not be able to solve. I have only had a few minor issues which I would like to share with you.
    The most problems I have with a horizontal layouts (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/dig-t-r-3-cylindrowy-silnik-nissana-o-wadze-40-kg-i-mocy-400- km.html). Marking and copying of a text is possible only on the last (top) layer of a document. The same situation is with widgets or anything connected with rollover state - it does not work. In the above example it would be perfect to use a composition/tooltip widget on the first page. Unfortunately, you cannot even move the cursor into it.
    It would be helpful to have an option of rolling a mouse to an anchor (like in here http://www.play.pl/super-smartfony/lg-nexus-5.html and here http://www.thepetedesign.com/demos/onepage_scroll_demo.html).  I mean any action of a mouse wheel would make a move to another anchor/screen. It would make navigation of my site very easy.
    Is it possible to create a widget with a function next anchor/previous anchor? Currently, in the menu every button must be connected to a different anchor for the menu to be functional.
    A question about Adobe Muse. Is it possible to create panels in different columns? It would make it easier to go through all the sophisticated program functions.
    The hits from Facebook have sometimes very long links, eg.
    (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/mclaren-p1-nowy-krol-nurburgring.html?fb_action_ids=143235557 3667782&fb_action_types=og.likes&fb_source=aggregation&fb_aggregation_id=288381481237582). If such a link is activated, the anchors in the menu do not work on any page. I mean the backlight of an active state, which helps the user to find out where on page they currently are. The problem also occurs when in the name of a html file polish fonts exist. And sometimes the dots does not work without any reason, mostly in the main page, sometimes in the cooperation page either (http://www.leftlane.pl/wspolpraca/). In the first case (on main page), I do not know why. I have checked if they did not drop into a state button by accident,  moved them among the layers, numbered them from scratch and it did not help. In the cooperation page, the first anchor does not work if it is in Y axle set at 0. If I move it right direction- everything is ok.
    The text frame with background fill does not change text color in overlay state (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/nowe-mini-krolestwo-silnikow-3-cylindrowych.html). I mean a source button at the beginning of every text. I would like a dark text and a light layer in a rollover, but  the text after export and moving cursor into it does not change color for some reason.
    I was not sure whether to keep everything (whole website) in one Muse file (but I may be mistaken?). I have decided to divide it into months. Everyone is in a different Muse file. If something goes wrong, I will not have any trouble with an upload of a whole site, which is going to get bigger and bigger.
    The problem is that every file has two master pages. Everything works well up to the moment when I realize how many times I have to make changes in upper menu when I need to add something there. I have already 5 files, every with 2 masters. Is there any way to solve this problem? Maybe something to do with Business Catalyst, where I could connect a menu to every subpage independently, deleting it from Muse file? Doing so I would be able to edit it everywhere from one place. It would make my work much easier, but I have no idea jendak how to do it.
    The comments Disqus do not load, especially at horizontal layouts  (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/2014-infiniti-q50-eau-rouge-concept.html). I have exchanged some mails and screenshots with Disqus help. I have sent them a screenshot where the comments are not loaded, because they almost never load. They have replied that it works at their place even with attached screenshot. I have a hard time to discuss it, because it does not work with me and with my friends either. Maybe you could fix it? I would not like to end up with awful facebook comments ;). The problem is with Firefox on PC and Mac. Chrome, Safari and Opera work ok.
    YouTube movie level layouts do not work well with IE11 and Safari 7 (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/wypadki-drogowe--004.html). The background should roll left, but in the above mentioned browsers it jumps up. Moreover the scrolling with menu dots is not fluent on Firefox, but I guess it is due to Firefox issues? The same layout but in vertical version rolls fluently in Firefox (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/polskie-wypadki--005.html).
    Now, viewing the website on new smartphones and tablets. I know it is not a mobile/tablet layout, but I tried to make it possible to be used on mobile hardware with HD (1280) display. I mean most of all horizontal layouts (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/2015-hyundai-genesis.html), where If we want to roll left, we need to roll down. Is there a way to make it possible to move the finger the direction in which the layout goes?
    On Android phones (Nexus 4, Android 4.4.2, Chrome 32) the fade away background effect does not work, although I have spent a lot of time over it (http://www.leftlane.pl/lut14/koniec-produkcji-elektrycznego-renault-fluence-ze!.html). It is ok on PC, but on the phone it does not look good. A whole picture moves from a lower layer instead of an edge which spoils everything.
    This layout does not look good on Android (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/nowe-mini-krolestwo-silnikow-3-cylindrowych.html#a07). The background does not fill the whole width of a page. There are also problems with a photo gallery, where full screen pictures should fill more of a screen.
    Is it possible to make an option of  scroll effects/motions for a fullscreen slideshow widget thumbnails (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/2014-chevrolet-ss%2c-rodzinny-sedan-z-415-konnym-v8.html#a06)? It would help me with designing layouts. Currently, it can go from a bottom of a page at x1 speed or emerge (like in this layout) by changing opacity. Something more will be needed, I suppose.
    Sometimes the pictures from gallery (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/2014-chevrolet-ss%2c-rodzinny-sedan-z-415-konnym-v8.html#a06 download very slowly. The website is hosted at Business Catalyst. I cannot state when exactly it happens, most of the time it works ok.
    I really like layouts like this (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/2014-chevrolet-ss%2c-rodzinny-sedan-z-415-konnym-v8.html#a03). On the top is a description and a main text, and the picture is a filled object with a hold set at the bottom edge. That is why there is a nice effect of a filling a whole screen- nevertheless the resolution that is set. It works perfect on PC, but on Android the picture goes beyond the screen. You can do something about it?
    In horizontal layouts (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/dig-t-r-3-cylindrowy-silnik-nissana-o-wadze-40-kg-i-mocy-400- km.html) holding of a filling object does not work. Everything is always held to upper edge of a screen regardless the settings. Possibility of holding the picture to the bottom edge or center would make my work much easier.
    According to UE regulations we have to inform about the cookies. I do not know how to do it in Muse. I mean, when the message shows up one time and is accepted, there would be no need to show it again and again during another visit on the website. Is there any way to do it? Is there any widget for it maybe?
    The YouTube widget sometimes changes size just like that. It is so when the miniature of the movie does not load, and the widget is set to stroke (in our case 4 pixels, rounded to 1 pixel). As I remember ( in case of a load error) it extends for 8 pixels wide.
    Last but not least - we use the cheapest hosting plan in Business Catalyst. The monthly bandwidth is enough, although we have a lot of pictures and we worried about it at first. Yet we are running out of the disk storage very quickly. We have used more than a half of a 1 GB after a month. We do not want to change BC for a different one, because we like the way it is connected with Muse. But we do not want to buy the most expensive package - but only this one has more disk space. We do not need any other of these functions and it would devastate our budget. Do we have any other option?
    I’m using Adobe Muse 7.2 on OS X 10.9.1.
    and I'm sending Muse file to <[email protected]>

    Unfortunatley, there is no way to get a code view in Muse. I know quite a few people requested it in the previous forum, but not really sure where that ended up. Also, you may not want to bring the html into DW unless you only have 1 or 2 small changes 2 make. Two reasons. First, it isnt backwards compatible, so if you are planning on updating that site in Muse, you will need to make those changes in DW everytime you update. Second, by all accounts the HTML that Muse puts out is not pretty or easy to work with. Unlike you, I am code averse, but there was a lenghty discussion on the previous forum on this topic. I know they were striving to make it better with every release, just not sure where it is at this point.
    Dont think I am reading that second question right, but there was a ton of info on that old site. You may want to take a look there, people posted a ton of great unique solutions, so it worth a look.
    Here is the link to the old forums- http://support.muse.adobe.com/muse

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You might try to see if you can change your security questions. Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account > Password and Security.
    I'm able to do this, others say they need to input answers to their current security questions in order to make changes, I'm inclined to think its worth a try, you don't have anything to lose.
    If that doesn't help you might try contacting Apple through Express Lane (select your country, navigate to iCloud help and enter the serial number of one of your devices)
