Can we have Multiple Instance on same Node in Oracle 10g RAC

Hi All,
I am planning to implement the RAC in Oracle 10g.Before that i have one doubt regarding RAC.
My question is "Can we create multiple Instance on Same node(Server) ?"
is it possible.
Any ideas or thoughts would be apperciable.
Thanks in Advance.

This is where it is important to keep the separation between 'database' and 'instance'.
A database is the set of files that contains the data (and the redo, control files, etc). A database does nothing by itself, other than take up lots of disk space.
An instance is theCPU cycles (running software) and the memory to control the database.
In Oracle RAC, you can have as many instances controlling one database [at the same time] as you want (within reason). Each instance must be able to access the disk(s) that contains the database.
These multiple instances can be on the same computer (effectively taking up a lot of server memory and CPU for nothing) or they can be on separate computers.
If they are on separate computers, the disk subsystems must be able to be shared across computers - this is occasionally done using operating system clusterware and is the main reason why clusterware is required at all. (This is also the toughest part of the pre-requisites in setting up a RAC and is very vendor dependent unless you use ASM.)
These instances need a communication connection to coordinate their work (usually a separate network card for each computer) so they do not corrupt the disk when they are trying to access the same file, and possibly the same block, at the same time.
In a RAC configuration, instances can be added, started, running, stopped and removed independent of each other (allowing a lot of high availability) or can be started and stopped as a group.
Each instance gets it's own SID, which is in no way any different than a non-RAC SID. It's just the name of a service that can be invoked. The neat thing is that the SID
a) helps the DBA keep things straight by lettiung us talk about 'instance A' (the Oracle software to be running over on computer A) vs 'instance B' when starting, stopping and managing;
b) helps the application by providing targets that can be listed in the TNSNAMES.ORA [against one service alias], which is used by ORacle Networking to provide automated load balance or failover (instance/SID a is not available, I guess I'll try the next in the list)
Hope that helps the concept level a bit.

    can you have multiple phones on same user email

    If you mean can they share the same iCloud account, yes.  Just be aware that when multiple devices share the same iCloud account, any data they sync with the account will be merged and the merged data will appear on all of the devices.  Also, any action taken on one device (such as adding or deleting contacts) will also be taken on all other devices sharing the account.  Finally, the iCloud backups of all the devices will share the same iCloud storage space.

  • Can't run multiple instances on same page!

    Hi,
    Since I got no response on the shadowbox forums after 2 weeks, I thought it's worth to post it here and hope someone can help me out.
    Note: This is also related on non-joomla pages. I've tested it on plain html as well (by Dreamweaver) and get the same issue.
    The following issue was posted by me on the shadowbox forums:
    I was wondering if the following is possible.
    I've tried almost everything where I can think of, but no luck.
    Searched many forums and googled a lot, but without success.
    I got feeling that I'm so close and missing some simple solution.
    So I'm stuck here, I'm not able to figure it out.
    This is what I want to achieve:
    My website is running on Joomla 1.5. And I'm using a Shadowbox extension.
    In an article I've put multiple SWF movies, like previews acting like buttons.
    So when clicking on a SWF button/movie, Shadowbox opens and plays a related FLV movie.
    To achieve this part I've followed the instructions at this site under FAQ > first paragraph.
    So far so good...
    Now the ugly thing is when putting multiple swf buttons on a single page, after clicking a random button Shadowbox always displays the same flv movie. I did some altering with ID's and such but had no luck.
    Even try to alter with the Shadowbox options and variables, flashVars and such (at this site under Options and Usage) but that worked out for me.
    The strange thing is when placing the buttons, let's say in an article belonging to a section and category and make the articles paginated, after clicking the swf button the related flv plays. Browsing to the next page and clicking the button, the related flv will play also. This is the way it should be. Unfortunately it doesn't work when multiple buttons are displayed on the frontpage or an single article regardless whether they belong to sections and categories or not.
    Even when a single code is placed in a single article and display 2 or more articles containg a different swf and a different related flv link only the last added flv plays with every random swf button/movie.
    This the code I'm using for each swf (actionscript behavior):
    FIRST INSTANCE SWF=====================================
    on (release) {
    getURL("javascript:openShadowbox
    ('http://test.cquence-multimedia.nl/images/cqmm_test.flv','flv','title')");

    Sorry...I still don't get it. What is it about Windows FUS that keeps iTunes from running running the process twice? It can run many other non-Apple windows apps in multiple user sessions (commercial apps, open source apps, audio/video apps, networked apps). I can even run two different virtual machines at the same time under two different user sessions.
    Why can iTunesHelper.exe run twice but iTunes.exe cannot? Why can I run Safari at the same time? Quicktime Player runs fine under multiple user sessions.
    Blaming it on Windows and/or FUS sounds like FUD. Can anyone give a valid technical reason? Semaphores? Mutexes? An admission (and explanation) that the Windows version is purposely crippled?

  • How can I have multiple instances of a column that itself holds a foreign key reference?

    I am new to Visual Studio so to start learning it I first of all downloaded a sample available at https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/ADPNET-Entity-Framework-2d1160cb and started working around it. Since I have fairly good knowledge of VB6 and SQL it did
    not take much time for me to understand the whole pattern the sample is based on. Had Microsoft given a detail explanation or a walk through of the sample it would have been much easier to understand the basics. However, I somehow managed to work around it
    and have build a small desktop application in wpf using Entity Framework and MVVM. But a point has come where I have got completely stuck up finding no way out. The problem is as under:
    I have two tables. 1 Advocate and 2 Party. Table Advocate would contain names of advocates and would have a primary key. Similarly Party would have names and their respective primary keys.
    Then I have another two tables 1. Case and 2 CaseDetail. Table Case would simply hold three columns: 1. CaseId 2. CaseNo and 3. Year. Table CaseDetail would have CaseDetailId as a primary key the CaseId as a Foreign Key. Now what I need is that a particular
    case could have multiple advocates and multiple petitioners. So the table CaseDetail would have two columns to hold advocateId and PartyId as a Foreign Keys. 
    If you look at the sample referred above you would not find how to deal with such a case. When I follow the pattern of the sample I get host of design time and runtime errors. 
    Therefore, please suggest what strategy should be adopted in a scenario described above while developing WPF application using Entity Framework and MVVM.

  • Are multiple PHYSICAL databases supported in one Oracle 10g RAC environment

    Hi alls,
    as of  Metalink 220970.1 Oracle RAC is also supporting different databases in one cluster installation. RAC handles any resource as a service and it doesn't matter if these services belongs to only one or to different databases. You install the Oracle Clusterware only once and you create any service you want to make high available.
    So is technically possible to install multiple databases on same Oracle Rac environment.
    My doubts are related to  SAP , does SAP certify such environments ?? we could have  one SAP R/3 database  and SAP BW database co-exist in a single Oracle RAC environment. or also co-exist SAP database with a non-SAP database (an already existing application) in the same Oracle Rac environment.
    Any comment would be higly appreciated.
    Silvio Brandani

    We have ECC, BI, PI and Portal running on same Oracle RAC environment.  We have one RAC for QA systems and one for PRD systems. We are not running any SAP applications along with Non-SAP applications on RAC.  Keeping SAP and non-SAP apps separate would be a way to go.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,
    Naveed

  • Can you have multiple accounts under same apple id?

    We have 1 main apple id for our household so that anything we buy can be shared onto any of our devices. However this is a problem when we use giftcards. When 1 child redeems their gift card onto the account, they can't stop the other sibling from using their money accidentally. Is there a way to set-up separate subaccounts while still being able to share content among all of us?

    iCloud isn't designed as a multi-user service. Either you all have the same ID, and all your data is available to everyone, or you all have separate IDs and keep your data separate. You can share calendars, so that for example you could all have your own calendars but have one which is common to everyone:
    http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a9479
    If you want to share contacts you will have to do it manually. If you want to do file transfer you will have to find a third-party alternative.

  • Can we have multiple transports for the same object.

    Hi guys,
    Can we have multiple transports for same object in dev system. Can anyone tell me how can this be done.
    Thanks

    Its not possible for the same development object. Only 1 person can access an object at a time and if mutiple users modify an object new TASKs are created under the same TRANSPORT.
    Only after releasing the tr you can create a new tr on the same object.

  • "you can not use multiple instance of Program at the same time"

    Hello @ all,
    I have a Problem, after the installing from Acrobat Testversion and acrobat reader in version in "all Combination" 8 an 9.
    I get this misstake information "you can not use multiple instance of Program at the same time" if I want open more then 1 .pdf.
    If I have no pdf open, but acrobat/reader so i can´t open with the same Misstake.
    I have deinstalled and installed, Allways I bekame the same information. I tryed all things to clean and know i don`t know forward.
    Important: by Drag an Drop in the Acrobat Reader it is going, but by direct click on the pdf i get mistake.
    Maybe, you know what I can do!
    Thanks for help!

    Installation of both Acrobat and Reader in the same Windows machine is not advisable. If I were you, I would remove both completely and then reinstall the one you want to keep.

  • HT204053 can you have multiple apple id's for the family but we all use the same iCloud?

    Can you have multiple apple id's for the family members but we all us the same iCloud account?

    You'll have to have an ID you all share in order to have a shared iCloud account. It would be sensible for each person to have their own ID and their own iCloud account for email and their own data (each would be on their own computer/iOS device or user account on a Mac) and then have a common account which everyone would sign into in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts and Calendars to access shared data.
    You don't want to be all using the email in a common account - if people are using email aliases remember these can't be detached from the account and transferred to another one. Having all your emails mixed up together can be somewhat impracticable.

  • HT204053 can i have multiple iCloud accounts with the same Apple id

    Can i have multiple iCloud accounts with the same Apple id

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    No, your ID is essentially your account. You can have email aliases and you can have multiple accounts, but I don't think that's what you are asking.

  • HT1766 can you have multiple iPhones in the same iTunes account without overwriting each phones content?

    Can you have multiple iPhones in the same iTunes account without overwriting each phones content?

    Hi sandexpress,
    As Ocean20 indicates, you want to make sure that you have automatic syncing turned off. In iTunes Preferences under Devices, make sure you have "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically" checked. Then connect each iPhone, and make sure that "Manually Manage Music and Videos" is checked on the Info page for each of them. Then go into each page for each device, and select what you want to sync to that particular device. (you would do this one device at a time - complete the steps for one of the phones, then connect the next one and do the same thing).
    With this kind of setup, you can modify what will sync at any given time for a particular device once you have connected it to iTunes, but before you click on the Sync button at the bottom of the screen. If you want to change some sync options on a particular device, you would just go into the page you wanted to change (Music, Photos, Apps, etc.), make your changes, and then Sync.
    If you do not have any changes, you can just hook up the phone and click on Sync.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers,
