11gR2 installation with ASM

Hi,
I want to install a 11gR2 server that would use ASM to manage disks.
It seems that in 11gR2 I must install grid infrastructure to install ASM even though I would not create a RAC database. Is that correct?

Yes it is since now the ASM managment has been taken away from DBCA and is now done by ASMCA which runs only from the Grid Infrastructure's home. So you must need the Grid Infrastructure installed even when you are going to install a single instance database.

How to convert single instance10g db to 11gR2 RAC with ASM

Hi,
I need your help to decide the plan about how to convert single instance 10g database to 11gr2 rac with asm.
I can have about 6 to 8 hours of downtime to upgrade and move to rac with asm.
db size is about 1.5tb and on AIX.
here is my plan....
1) install 11gr2 rac with asm on two nodes
2) verify rac installation and clustered asm
3)install 10g oracle binaries( yes 10g )
4) shutdown production db ( machine prod )
5) make copy of production and restore on 1st node ( using shadow image , so it's quick and its file system )
6) upgrade db to 11g ( still of file system )
7) after successful upgrade, move to asm ( rman backup )
8) add another node
does it look okay ? OR is there a better approach to save time?
can someone help me ?
Thanks...

Thanks ...
So here is what I thought... suggest if something is not right...
1) install 11gr2 grid infra on node A and B with ASM
2) stop CLUSTER ON BOTH NODES.
3) shutdown prod db on 10g ( downtime starts )
4) take rman cold backup
5) restore rman backup on node A on ASM ( as if single instance 11g , no rac parameters )
6) mount and run upgrade script for 11g, then open db with 11
7) after successful upgrade, shutdown db node A
8) change all rac related parameters, spfile,undo,redo for rac environment on both nodes
9) open db in rac environment
can I do this way ?
My only question is, even though I installed rac on node A and B, in step 5 and 6 I'm using only node A as if it is single instance. Is it possible ?
if it is then I'm good to go...
Thanks for all suggestions.

Oracle 10g R2 installation with ASM+RAC

Gurus,
Need some suggestuon on Oracle 10g R2 installation with ASM and RAC option.
We have found many documents on the Oracle, HP, HP-Oracle CTC and third party web sites, but nothing that is specific to this particular combination of separate
ORACLE_HOMEs, ASM and 10g RAC CRS. It is unclear for me from the documentation how this combination of ASM and 10.2g RAC may best be installed.
The high level steps i got after reading lot of docs as follows - but i am not sure whether these are correct or not. if they are correct, can any one share their experience/notes please?
1) Install CRS
2) Install RDBMS for ASM HOME - create separater oracle home for ASM instance using OUI
3) Install RDBMS for RAC Database Home - create separater oracle home for RAC database using OUI
4) Create ASM database using DBCA -
5) Use dbca to create database.

Oracle provides 'paint by numbers' tutorials called 'Oracle By Example'. (Go to OTN, check under the Training tab)
They have one for a Windows based ASM/RAC that you might want to review. Not your specific environment, but the steps will be dag-nabbed close.
I recommend walking the path (http://otn.oracle.com >> training:OBE >> Database 10g Release 1:VMWare:Installation

Oracle Standalone DB 11g installation with ASM on Windows 2008

Hi Experts,
I would like to install Oracle Database 11g R2 on Windows 2008 with ASM .
Since I want to do it as a standalone database server , I did not confiugre any shared storage. I have a single disk on my machine with 1 TB space.
There is a free space of 750 GB and want to use that space for ASM disks.
Can someone guide me on how to configure ASM disks ?.
Thanks

Database installation with ASM

Hello,
I just install a new RAC server with 2 nodes.
Linux RedHat4 /oracle 10gR2.
I have a disk RAID5 : /dev/sdc--->/dev/raw/raw1
RAID5 : /dev/sdc--->/dev/raw/raw2
RAID1 : /dev/sdd--->/dev/raw/raw3
When I create my database I need to put my datafiles in RAID5 and my redologs in RAID1.
How I can do this with ASM? I have to create 3 disk groups (+DATA,+FRA and +REDOLOG)?

You dedicate disks to an ASM diskgroup in the CREATE DISKGROUP statement. If you have 2 disks (one RAID5, one RAID1) you can have only 2 diskgroups. The first one points to RAID5 (datafiles), the second one to RAID1 (redologs). Later on you have to put datafiles into group1 and redologs into group2.
This document is a good description, how to deal with ASM:

11gR2 Database Installation with ASM - NOT RAC

Hi ,
Im littel bet confused about the "Grid Infrastructure" in 11gR2.
In oracle 10gR2 i had to install oracle software twice.
1. one for the rdbms instance and the second software on for the ASM instance.
2. Then from the asm home i run dbca and choose "configure automatic storage management" and continue with the installation.
3. Finally i run dbca from the rdbms home and attached the dabs to the asm.
11gR2 intreduce the "Grid Infrastructure" also asm with for non-rac installation .
I would like to know if i still need to install twice the oracle software (once for the asm home and second for the rdbms home) and
only then continue with the "Grid Infrastructure" , or the : "Grid Infrastructure" already contain the asm software , for the asm home
Thanks

Is that true that you have to install a separate set of binaries for ASM and one for the RDBMS. I don't think it is in either 10g or 11gr1.
I do know that in 11gr2 you only need one home for the ASM_HOME and CRS_HOME which saves one installation.

Oracle 11gR2 RAC with ASM with asm_preferred_read_failure_group

Hello DBAs,
I apologize first if this question has been posted somewhere.
I have a two nodes cluster so essentially, I have 2 ASM instances (ASM1 & ASM2). It seems like both instances share the same ASM spfile.
+ASM1> show parameter spfile;
NAME TYPE VALUE
spfile string +OCRDG/clone-cluster/asmparame
terfile/registry.253.759424467
=====================================
+ASM2> show parameter spfile;
NAME TYPE VALUE
spfile string +OCRDG/clone-cluster/asmparame
terfile/registry.253.759424467
The Oracle docs says that you can configure asm_preferred_read_failure_group for each instance so when I logged in instance 1, I ran the command:
+ASM1> alter system set asm_preferred_read_failure_groups='DATA.FG1', 'DATA.FG2';
then it showed DATA.FG1 is primary and DATA.FG2 is secondary but this also shows on instance 2 because it uses the same spfile.
How can I make instance 1 uses DATA.FG1 for primary and instance 2 uses DATA.FG2 for primary. I have separate GRID home for each node.
Any help is much appreciated.
thanks,
TD

Any help is much appreciated.Normally we can give different values for each instance, But i never tried in ASM.
Here is example
SQL> alter system set asm_preferred_read_failure_groups='DATA.FG1' sid='ASM1';
SQL> alter system set asm_preferred_read_failure_groups='DATA.FG2' sid='ASM2';So DATA.FG1 will be allocated to ASM1, DATA.FG2 will be allocated to ASM2.
Now check from ASM1
SQL> show parameter asm_preferred_read_failure_group
& from ASM2
SQL> show parameter asm_preferred_read_failure_group

Installation with ASM question

In reading one of the ASM install docs it says to install the OS and the Oracle home on the same drive. Is this really a requirement? The client is a windows shop, OS is Windows 2008 R1, Oracle 11.1.0.7. We want to install the OS on one drive and the Oracle home on another, will that cause issues for ASM?
Thanks in advance.

I do not think so. You should be able to install your ORACLE_HOME on a different partition or drive. Just out of curiosity: where exactly did you read this?

Installation of RAC with ASM on Solaris

Hello Everybody
I have to install and config oracle 10g RAC and ASM on Solaris, and as per my understanding network prerequisite is 3 IP's for each node,
1) A public IP's registered on DNS and
2) A virtual IP's registered on DNS, but NOT defined in the servers. can be defined later during Oracle Clusterware Install, And
3) a private IP only known to the servers in the RAC configuration, to be used for the interconnect.
The scenario is like
The Servers & the Storage are in different Network and hence the public registered IP address & Virtual IP address is not possible. Only Private IP Address can be possible, But both the servers are accessible from to me Please confirm on the same.
My question is
Is is possible to build the RAC and ASM only with the private IP without the public and the virtual IP, if yes how?
The setup is not going to be the part of any production or any development environment, I am new to this and just wanted to test the RAC installation with ASM.
Your inputs or suggestion are greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your time.

Hi,
for a 10g RAC you need:
- a host-IP for every node
- a private IP for every node
- a virtual IP for every node
Host-IP and Private IP must be assigned to both hosts and conenction between the hosts using either the host-IP or the private IP must be possible.
Is is possible to build the RAC and ASM only with the private IP without the public and the virtual IP, if yes how?The term "private" and "public" does not refer to public IPs. It refers to the fact "private" is only for communication between the nodes and public for communication between the client and database.
For a successful installation you need at least these three IPs on each system.
So for instance your public IPs reside in the network 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 and your private interconnect network can be 192.168.2.0/255.255.255.0. Both networks consists of private (i.e. non-routeable) IPs.

Oracle 11gr2 database installation using ASM on standalone Server.

Hello Guys,
Environment is as below:
Oracle 11gr2
ASM
Enterprise Linux Server release 5.5 (Carthage)
I never did oracle 11gr2 installation using ASM and I need to install Oracle software on standalone server and then create database 11g Release 2.
I have following doubts:
1. Do we need to install Grid infrastructure software for standalone server as well ?
2. Does Grid Infrastructure software comes separately or alongwith DB software ?
3.Is Grid software same for RAC and standalone server setup ?
4.Do we need to create user Grid for installation of Grid for standalone server as well ?
can anyone give me full steps from scratch ?

Install Oracle 11gr2 on Windows 2008 R2 with ASM step by step Guide needed

Hi,
I am looking for a step by step guide on installing Oracle 11gr2 on Windows 2008 R2 with ASM etc. This is not a RAC environment since ASM architecture is a bit different in 11gR2, I would appreciate if anyone can point me to a guide to follow or provide a one.
Thanks in advance.

Oracle 11gR2 RAC installation with DNS

Dear Guru's,
I want to configure RAC on two node cluster with DNS(For SCAN) in my testing server.
O.S: RHEL5.4(64 bit)
Oracle Version: 11gR2(11.2.0.2)
Note: Am creating nodes in VMware ESXi server.
Just I want to know whether DNS should be configure in any one of those NODES or in separate machine.
Bala :)

Hi Bala,
I want to configure my Database with & without DNS. (Will try both installation in different servers)I think, you have already received a link on very good article about Oracle RAC installation without DNS and DHCP (I mean Jeffrey Hunter's article).
There is one more about Oracle RAC installation with DNS and DHCP (http://gjilevski.com/2011/10/05/build-two-node-oracle-rac-11gr2-11-2-0-3-with-gns-dns-dhcp-and-haip/).
And want to know how it forwards the client connection if a node fails.. Can anyone update the URL for this..There are a lot of information about it:

Installing Oracle 11gR2 Standard Edition on WINDOWS Server 2008R2 with ASM

Hi,
I want to setup Oracle 11g DB (11.2.0.2) Standard Edition on Windows Server 2008R2 x64 bit with ASM Instance. I would appreciate if you could suggest me with the following little but important questions.
The following link from Oracle doesnt have 11.2.0.2 db version for windows x64 bit. Do a patch (which I think is a complete installation) is needed to install after installing 11.2.0.1? or I can directly install 11.2.0.2?
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/112010-win64soft-094461.html
Secondly, I have no such experience regarding installing and setting up ASM Instance on windows. How many disks or etc is needed for ASM (as ASM disks). One of the admin guy said, he has 6 disks (2 for OS and 6 you can use for Oracle or ASM so so). Could you please suggest, how should I divide the disk partitions of what should I say no idea :(
Also, do ASM instance (diskgroups,disks) should be setup before creating DB (through dbca?)
I was thinking like:
- Installing Oracle software
- Creating ASM disks,diskgroups,instance,etc
- Creating DB (using dbca?), isnt' it?
Bundle of thanks in advance.
Best Regards
