ASM Configuration on oracle 10.2 RAC

hi all
os : sun sparc solaris 10
db : 10.2 rac database
clusterware configured using raw devices.
we have no other option than configuring asm on raw devices.
could u tell me narrows steps how to do it manually as well as using dbca

Hi
I've do mine last week but it's in HPUX not sun and not with raw device but i think it's the same
Steps:
1- Launch dbca
2- Choose configure ASm
3- Select all the nodes
4- Choose Create Initiialization parameter file and click on ASM parameters and in the asm_diskstring parameter specify the disk you want to use in asm group example
vg01/vol1,vg01/vol2, ... Don't specify first the disk group
5- Create new disk group
6- choose the disk candidate for the group
7- Finished

    Plz suggest How configure oracle R12 with RAC using both system .If you want to configure RAC, then you must have the same OS installed on all RAC nodes -- See (RAC: Frequently Asked Questions [ID 220970.1], Does Oracle Clusterware or Oracle Real Application Clusters support heterogeneous platforms?) for details.
    Once you have the same OS, please refer to:

    Thanks,
    HusseinHi Hussein,
    For Rac I am using both same OS (linux 4) for both nodes .
    Plz suggest its possible to install two nodes on different machine(diiferent virtual machine on different system ) .Can communicate both machine without any problem if its possible plz provide links.

  • ASM Installation on Oracle 11g Clusterware (RAC) environment

    Hi All,
    I am trying to setup Oracle 11g Standared Edition RAC+ASM on RedHat Linux 5.0 VM ware box. As part of this RAC setup successfully completed. For this i have used raw devices and mounted using NFS.
    In many of forumns i have read that ASM installtion on a cluster envioronmnet is different than non cluster environment.
    I dont know how to start ASM installtion on RAC environment. Please share any documents if you have?
    Thanks,
    Rakesh

    will the steps need to be done on two nodes of cluster or it is sufficient on first node.
    "raw device" for OCR, VOTE, SPFILE_FOR ASM and ASM DISKGROUPs
    before do "raw devices" you have to fdisk(make partitions) on share storages
    node1:
    # fdisk /dev/sdf
    # ls /dev/sdf*
    node2:
    # ls /dev/sdf*
    don't find...,so just fdisk -> l and -> w
    fdisk how? http://linux.about.com/od/commands/l/blcmdl8_fdisk.htm
    Example: /etc/sysconfig/rawdevices do it every nodes
    #Oracle OCR File +~280M+
    /dev/raw/raw1 /dev/sdf1
    #Oracle Voting File +~280M+
    /dev/raw/raw2 /dev/sdf2
    #Oracle ASM spfile ~50M+
    /dev/raw/raw3 /dev/sdf3
    #Oracle ASM DISK Group1
    /dev/raw/raw4 /dev/sdg1
    #Oracle ASM DISK Group2
    /dev/raw/raw5 /dev/sdh1
    And oracle user.. can read /dev/raw/raw* You should find on every nodes
    http://oraclepitstop.wordpress.com/2008/02/15/raw-devices-on-rhel-5-or-oel-5/
    ls -la /dev/raw/raw*
    crw-rw---- 1 root oinstall 162, 1 Jan 13 12:53 /dev/raw/raw1
    crw-rw---- 1 oracle oinstall 162, 2 Jan 13 12:53 /dev/raw/raw2
    crw-rw---- 1 oracle oinstall 162, 3 Jan 13 12:53 /dev/raw/raw3
    crw-rw---- 1 oracle oinstall 163, 1 Jan 13 12:53 /dev/raw/raw4
    crw-rw---- 1 oracle oinstall 164, 1 Jan 13 12:53 /dev/raw/raw5
    do it on node1 but you have to pass phrase on every nodes Before
    http://www.puddingonline.com/~dave/publications/SSH-with-Keys-HOWTO/document/html/SSH-with-Keys-HOWTO-5.html
    example:
    node01:
    $ ssh node01 hostname
    node01
    $ ssh node02 hostname
    node02
    - Install + Setup Clusterware:
    OCR = /dev/raw/raw1
    VOTE = /dev/raw/raw2
    - Install Oracle Database for ASM Home
    spfile for ASM = /dev/raw/raw3
    - after ASM started... create disk groups from /dev/raw/raw4 and /dev/raw/raw5
    - Install Oracle Database for RDBMS Home
    - Create Database to use ASM diskgroups

    Did you followed the same procedure to set up Oracle 11g RAC+ASM on RHEL 5.0.I'd done(test 11gRAC) it on RHEL 4 + 11g + ASM(on raw device)
    on production, I use ASMlib... + ASM + 10g

  • Oracle database 10g RAc an ASM configuration

    Hi all,
    I want to ask to everybody something about Oracle 10g RAC and ASm configuration. We plan to migrate to Oracle 10g from 9i, and we will begin configuring oracle but we have to decide which configuration are the best.
    Our materials are bellow:
    Hardware: RP 3440 (HP)
    OS : HPUX 11i Ver 1
    Storage: EVA 4000 (eva disk group)
    The problem is:
    Our supplier recommand us to use HP serviguard + HP serviceguard extension for RAC+ RAc and Raw device as configuration.
    But we want to use Oracekl Clusterware + RAC + ASM
    My question is if anybody know what is the best configuration, we want to use ASm.
    Can we use HP serviguard and ASM.
    Some documentations or link explain oracle RAC and ASM configuration will be appreciate.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hello,
    there's no extra RAC software package, but the option is only offered, if one of the supported cluster layers for the respective OS has been installed before.
    10.1.0.3 looks like a complete redesign, but anyway it is a patch, you have to install 10.1.0.2 first.

  • Rconfig fails for migrate single ASM instance to Oracle RAC 11.2.0.3

    We completed the following steps thus far to migrate single instance with ASM 11.2.0.3 on Oracle Linux to RAC:
    1. Install RAC CRS 11.2.0.3 in GRID_HOME
    2. Install RAC database 11.2.0.3 software in new ORACLE_HOME
    3. Added ASM diskgroups to two node ASM instances
    4. run rconfig from target RAC ORACLE_HOME
    It fails on:
    [RACConvertStep.execute:193] STEP Result=Oracle home is not a cluster database home. Make sure that oracle binary is linked with RAC option and the Oracle home entry in Oracle inventory is updated with cluster node list.

  • Restore DB13 Oracle backup of RAC+ASM to Standalone server with ASM only

    Dear Experts,
    My SAP ECC System is on Oracle 11g with RAC on ASM. I am taking the backup using DB13 with init<SID>.sap profile as attached.
    I want to restore this backup on single node System with only ASM(no RAC). (ASM File system structure remains the same)
    As per my finding and as per Note 1627541 - BR*Tools support for Oracle ASM and Exadata/ODA, it says use only BRRECOVER to restore the database.
    Can anyone please assist me, in restoring the database. As in step by step commands or points to follow the restore.
    Thanks,
    KK

    Hi Yayati,
    Please refer to SAP guidelines on the configuration for using brtools on Oracle RAC + ASM
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/0063fdad-49f6-2e10-22bc-
    c8c4c7f9e055?QuickLink=ora&ov…
    Additional configuration information can be checked under SAP note
    Note 1598594 - BR*Tools configuration for Oracle inst. under "oracle" user
    you need to adapt your init<SID>.sap file according to the recommendations suggested.
    Post this you may use brtools to backup and perform restoration as well.
    Hope this helps.

  • Best practice for oracle 10.2 RAC with ASM

    Did any one tried/installed Oracle 10.2 RAC with ASM and CRS ?
    What is the best practice?
    1. separate home for CRS, ASM and Oracle Database?
    2. separate home for CRS and same home for ASM and Oracle Darabase?
    we set up the test environment with separate CRS, ASM and Oracle database homes, but we have tons of issues with the listener, spfile and tnsnames.ora files. So, seeking advise from the gurus who implimeted/tested the same ?

    I am getting ready to install the 10gR2 database software (10gR2 Clusterware was just installed ) and I want to have a home for ASM and another for database as you suggest. I have been told that 10gR2 was to have a smaller set of binaries that can be used for the ASM home ... but I am not sure how I go about installing it. The first look at the installer does not seem to make it obvious...Is it a custom build option?

  • How to create a new ASM Diskgroup in Oracle 10g RAC?

    Hi,
    Our env is Oracle 10g R2 RAC on HP-UX. I want to create a new ASM Diskgroup. Please let me know if the following steps are ok to create a new ASM Diskgroup.
    1. Ensure the new Disk is visible in both ASM instances in RAC (v$asm_disk) and the header_status is 'CANDIDATE'
    2. From Node 1 ASM Instance issue the create diskgroup command.
    SQL> create diskgroup DATA2 external redundancy disk '/dev/rdsk/c4t0d5';
    3. Query v$asm_diskgroup and make sure the Diskgroup is created.
    4. Mount the DATA2 Diskgroup from Node 2 ASM Instance.
    5. Query v$asm_diskgroup and make sure the Diskgroup is visible from Node2 ASM instance.
    6. Ensure the header_status is 'MEMBER'.
    Rgds,

    correct.
    instead of using device file '/dev/rdsk/c4t0d5' you can create an alternate device file using mknod, which is called "asm_disk_xg" for example.

  • 10g grid agent installation and configuration on oracle RAC

    Hi All,
    I have one two node RAC setup on HP-UX itanium platform and I want to install oracle 10g grid agent on both the RAC nodes to monitor the RAC instances and databases and OMS repository server is ready and running. Only I have installed agents on both the nodes, but tns entry and hosts files on OMS server and both the nodes modified.
    But, nodes are not getting automatically discovered by OMS server. And what is the command to configure the grid agent on RAC instances.
    I have to install grid agent on both the nodes individually or it can be installed on single node and can be integrated with other node.
    Please help me out in this regard.......
    Thanks in Advance,
    Sukanta Paul.
    Edited by: sukanta paul on Aug 18, 2009 10:16 PM

    Similar problem and installation does not detect the rac nodes and installation is done locally which does not help the situation..By the way we all consult documentation and the whole point of having a forum is so we have a potential fix or work around and not link from here to documentation. Just to mention :)

  • How many control file should be created in ASM for ORACLE 4 nodes RAC

    We have a oracle 10G(10.2.0.4) database with 4 nodes locates ASM in redhat linux5.
    The vendor created this RAC system with database.
    I saw below infornation as
    SQL> select name from GV_$CONTROLFILE;
    NAME
    +FLSDISK1/sale/controlfile/current.256.690290159
    +FLSDISK1/sale/controlfile/current.256.690290159
    +FLSDISK1/sale/controlfile/current.256.690290159
    +FLSDISK1/sale/controlfile/current.256.690290159
    It seems that each node with one control file.
    I got a feedback that vender claimed SAN is very reliable.
    I am new person for database at ASM for RAC.
    Could you make a explain for this condition? Do I need to add ( mirror) another 2 control file into ASM?
    The Oracle recommands that at least 2 contril files( best 3 files) in different place. This is true for signle instance.
    How about RAC that database locates in ASM?
    Please help me!!
    Jim

    You are fine using the standard three controlfiles in ASM, four is fine too, but it does not need to be tied to the number of instances as all the instances in a RAC database use the same controlfile (and its copies). ASM knows the controlfile type and will stripe each one in 128k pieces across as many volumes as it can. I much prefer to have my controlfiles in ASM, it prevents accidental deletion and generally makes DBA life easier.
    Cheers!

    also before you do what is suggested on the url posted by Mufalani,
    it seems that you should do the following:
    Check existence of udev raw mapping rule file /etc/udev/rules.d/60-raw.rules
    On RH/EL5, udev raw mapping rule file /etc/udev/rules.d/60-raw.rules should exist by default as part of the util-linux package, for example:
    # ls /etc/udev/rules.d/60-raw.rules
    /etc/udev/rules.d/60-raw.rulesCreate a custom udev raw mapping rule file, /etc/udev/rules.d/61-oracleraw.rules say, for example:
    # touch /etc/udev/rules.d/61-oracleraw.rules3b. Add udev raw binding rules to /etc/udev/rules.d/61-oracleraw.rules file
    Add the udev raw binding rules to the /etc/udev/rules.d/61-oracleraw.rules file, for example:
    # cat /etc/udev/rules.d/61-oracleraw.rules
    # Raw bind to Oracle Clusterware devices
    ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd*", PROGRAM=="/sbin/scsi_id", RESULT=="360a98000686f6959684a453333524174", RUN+="/bin/raw /dev/raw/raw1 %N"
    ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd*", PROGRAM=="/sbin/scsi_id", RESULT=="360a98000686f6959684a453333524179", RUN+="/bin/raw /dev/raw/raw2 %N"If migrating to RHEL5/OEL5 from an earlier Linux version that relied on /etc/sysconfig/rawdevices file for persistent raw device bindings, the following script can be used as a basis for generating your RHEL5/OEL5 udev rules. Note, the script does not factor device name persistency.
    #!/bin/bash
    grep -v "^ *#" /etc/sysconfig/rawdevices | grep -v "^$" | while read dev major minor ; do
    if [ -z "$minor" ]; then
    echo "ACTION==\"add\", KERNEL==\"${major##/dev/}\", RUN+=\"/bin/raw $dev %N\""
    else
    echo "ACTION==\"add\", ENV{MAJOR}==\"$major\", ENV{MINOR}==\"$minor\", RUN+=\"/bin/raw $dev %M %m\""
    fi
    done
