Cluster database control showing instances down

I have created a two node cluster in windows 2k3 x 64bit and therefore cant use my grid control as there doesnt seem to be an agent for it, therefore am using the DBconsole instead.
on the welcome window its showing both instances as down, but i know this not to be the case. When going into the database page, both instances are showing as up! I cant work out quite why, have done everything i can think of to get it working with no joy.
any ideas?

The CLUSTER_NAME parameter appears to have not been set when creating the DB Console repository.
See Metalink note: 340362.1 How to Create DB Console in A RAC Environment.

  • Grid control shows process down but process is up

    How can I correct this issue?
    the processes are running, but grid control shows them down, is there a manual refresh that needs to be done?

    the agent is running on a windows server.
    it has been showing down for about a week, and it is still showing down, but all the processes are running.
    while looking in grid control the arrow on the top left is pointing down, and red
    but when I look further down the screen, I see that all of the arrows are pointing up and green.

    I have the same problem, and looks fixed now...
    Try review doc 420761.1

    start dbconsole (fails)
    review logs generated and look this errors:

  • CloudControl 12c: when adding cluster-database single instances are missing

    Hello ,
    I'e have installed the agent 12c on every single host of our RAC. When adding a database to CloudControl 12c just the RAC-instance gets discovered - but not the single database instances on each host.
    Due to this when clicking targets -> databases I just see the cluster-database - but not every single instance of the database.
    Compared to another RAC database this is totally different behaviour.
    Any help will be appreciated

    Hello ,
    maybe I should try to explain the issue a little bit clearer...
    We have one RAC database called PROD02. When clicking "targets -> databases" I see the following:
    PROD02 of type Cluster Database
    PROD021 of type Database Instance
    PROD022 of type Database Instance
    That's the way it shoudl be - that's the way I expected it...
    For the newly cofgured RAC database, called PREP02, it looks different when clicking "targets -> databases"
    PREP02 of type Cluster Database
    The single instances don't show up. Of course I see the single instances when clicking on "PREP02" under the item "Instances".
    Now I wonder why these two RAC databases are differently displayed when clicking "targets -> databases". When trying to add the single instances (clicking "Add" under "targets -> databases") and selecting then either "only on the host <hostname>" or "on all hosts in the cluster" no single instances are found or displayed...

  • CloudControl 12c shows "Agent Unreachable" for Cluster Database

    Hello ,
    when clicking on "Targets -> Databases" our RAC database shows up as follows:
    Name Type Status
    PROD02 Cluster Database symbol for "Agent Unreachable"
    PROD021 Database Instance symbol "green arrow" for "Up"
    PROD022 Database Instance symbol "green arrow" for "Up"
    I don't understand why the symbol for the Cluster Database is not a green arrow, too. The agent on each node is up and running - and when either clicking on "PROD02" or "PROD021" (or PROD022) Cloud Control offers the full functionality. Therefore the status "Agent Unreachable" is missleading (from my point of view). I don't want to remove the complete Cluster Database and discover it once again - several jobs have already been defined and I don't want to do that once again.
    Did anybody else experience the same behaviour?
    Any help will get appreciated...

  • Configure Database Control web page in MSCS Failover Cluster

    I have a two-node windows 2000 cluster that is managed with Microsoft Cluster Services and Oracle FailSafe Manager. The cluster works fine, so does connecting to the database with SQL; however, I have been unable to use the database control EM web page to access the database. The page appears with the Database/Instance/Listener titles but no data/information appears.
    There is a virtual host name and IP address for the cluster which I can use successfully when accessing thru SQL. I've tried the system name and the virtual cluster name in the http://<SYSTEMNAME>:1521/em web address. I've tried both without the "em".
    The emctl agent is running. The dbconsole service is running correctly.
    Which name should I use in the web address - host system name or virtual (cluster) host name? What configuration parameters am I missing?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance!

    Problem could be same but reason could be diffrent

  • Multiple Single Instance DB Conversion to Cluster Database RAC

    Hi,
    Good Day.
    we are in planning phase to perform an activity, in which 8 existing (Single Instance) and 1 new database will be consolidated in ONE Oracle RAC Cluster database.
    Kindly share your ideas, to perform the consolidation smoothly with minimal downtime.
    can any one share the cons/pros, what if we create MULTIPLE RAC cluster databases instead of one cluster database?
    Thank You.
    Regards,

    The cons are pretty much the same as running multiple instances on a single server: Tuning will be much harder because you will have to look for bottleneck and depletion of common resources (CPU, RAM, IO) across all your instances instead of one (where you have lots of nice and integrated features). There is the potential for contention between resources and since each instance/database has its own SGA (and they are not shared) you will potentially waste a lot of ram for stuff that is redundant between the instances.
    But if you still think this is something you want to do, you should take a look at the 'server pool' feature. It will give you some more control over how your databases/instances should be ditributed across your rac (there is propably no need for all databases to be running on all servers at the same time)

  • DB console is showing two Cluster databases

    Hi,
    I have a two RAC envieronment. I added another instacne . Now the EM (DBconsole) is showing only the old instances , not the new one as well. when i did further investigation , found this.
    On the OEM console page, click preferences, click preferred Credentials and the database instance
    Under cluster databases, system is showing following
    (+)DBNAME.hostname.lcl
    (+)DBNAME
    when i expanded the (+)DBNAME.hostname.lcl, its showing
    DBNAME.hostname.lcl_DBNAME3
    Exapanding (+)DBNAME shows
    DBNAME_DBNAME2
    DBNAME_DBNAME1
    The problem is , why not all the instances are shown into one cluster databases.
    does anyone knows, how to fix. I have raised a SR , but as usual no solution.

    I definitely feel your pain, I've been there and done that. If you don't mind punting I would suggest the following:
    As an example, we have a three node rac database. The node/instance names are rac01/ORADB1, rac02/ORADB2, and rac03/ORADB3. We want to install EM dbconsole to manage all the instances. rac01 is the EM host server. The database registry shows the following:
    COMP_ID COMP_NAME VERSION STATUS SCHEMA
    EM Oracle Enterprise Manager 11.1.0.6.0 VALID SYSMAN
    Set up ssh authorization in such way so that all nodes can connect to each other without password prompt. The ssh authorization can be disabled after the configuration.
    emca -config dbcontrol db -repos recreate -cluster -EM_NODE rac01 -EM_SID_LIST ORADB2,ORADB3 -SYS_PWD password -DBSNMP_PWD password -SYSMAN_PWD password -PORT 1521
    The logs for this activity can be found under:
    cd $ORACLE_BASE/cfgtoollogs/emca/<DB_UNIQUE_NAME>
    You will be prompted for :
    Database unique name: ORADB
    Cluster name: rac_cluster
    Email address for notifications (optional): <enter>
    Outgoing Mail (SMTP) server for notifications (optional): <enter>
    ASM ORACLE_HOME [ /apps/dbs/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1 ]: <enter>
    ASM port [ 1521 ]: <enter>
    ASM user role [ SYSDBA ]: <enter>
    ASM username [ SYS ]: <enter>
    ASM user password: < the password for SYS ASM user>
    The whole process takes about 1 hour, depending on the speed of the servers that you are using.
    If in the future another node is added to the RAC system, then issue the following command on node 1:
    emca -addInst db
    You will be prompted for :
    Node name: <new server name>
    Database unique name: ORADB
    Database SID: <new instance name>
    Password for SYS user: <password>
    You should find the agent running on non host nodes, in this case rac02 and rac03, while db console will also be running on the host node i.e. rac01.
    IF not then run emctl start dbconsole on all on nodes.
    How does that work for you?

  • Add second instance to Enterprise Manager 10g database control

    Hi,
    I have a server with one Oracle 10g database instance, and I
    configured the local Enterprise Manager database control for it.
    Now I added a second instance on the server, using the same Oracle
    home. Can I manage this new instance using the existing database
    control or do I have to configure a second database control using
    another port? The documentation isn't too clear on this.
    Thanks,
    Matthias

    You can't manage the two database using database control. you have to go for Grid control only if you need to configure two or more instance.

    How to Configure the 10.2 DB Control in a Failsafe Environment
    ID: 452305.1
    HOWTO: PUBLISHED 17-OCT-2008
    In this Document
       Goal
       Solution
       References
    Applies to:
    Enterprise Manager Grid Control - Version: 10.2.0.1 to 10.2.0.3
    Information in this document applies to any platform.
    Goal
    The goal of the document is to provide the steps to configure the DB Console in an Oracle Failsafe environment.
    Please note that the solution offered in this document is not certified by Oracle. It's only provided as a workaround for customers who wish to use this setup for the Database Control Console in a failsafe environment. Support for the procedure outlined in this document will be provided on a 'best efforts' approach.
    As an alternative to this approach you can use Grid Control Agents to monitor a database in a failsafe environment. For more details please see:
    Note 396659.1  How To Setup Grid Control Central Agent Manually in Oracle Failsafe Environment
    We assume the following:
    - the database binaries are installed on each node on the local disk
    - you already have a failsafe group with the database, the listener, disk resource, and virtual
    ip/hostname
    Note: This is specific for Windows environments using Oracle Failsafe. For setting up the DB Console in Active/Passive clusters on UNIX please use the following note instead:
    Note 362524.1 Configure DB Control 10.2 for use in Active/Passive High Availability Environments
    Solution
    1. Drop the DB Control repository and configuration files on the active node:
    <ORACLE_HOME>/bin/emca -deconfig dbcontrol db -repos drop
    2. Recreate the DB Control using the virtual hostname:
    - in a command window do the following:
    set oracle_sid=<your_sid>
    set oracle_home=<your_oracle_home>
    set oracle_hostname=<virtual_hostname>
    cd %oracle_home%\bin
    emca -config dbcontrol db -repos create
    -- make sure that the virtual host name was picked up by emca (it will display a summary screen
    before continuing)
    3. Verify that the DB Console works fine and can be accessed using the virtual host name in the URL
    4. Stop the DB Console
    5. Create a directory path on the group disk resource similar to your oracle home path on the local disk.
    For example:
    If the oracle home on the local disk is C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1 and the shared disk is D:
    then create the following path: D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1
    Copy C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\<hostname_sid> and
    C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\oc4j\j2ee\OC4J_DBConsole_<hostname_sid>
    to D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\<hostname_sid> and respectively
    D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\oc4j\j2ee\OC4J_DBConsole_<hostname_sid>
    Remember to change the values enclosed in <> with those in your environment.
    6. Delete the following directories from the local disk
    C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\<hostname_sid>
    C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\oc4j\j2ee\OC4J_DBConsole_<hostname_sid>
    7. Create NTFS junction points from the local disk to the shared disk (these work like symbolic
    links on UNIX) . It is your responsibility to create these.
    You can find a brief guide as well as some tools that will help you create them at:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS_junction_point
    http://www.microsoft.com/technet ... dDisk/Junction.mspx
    Important: Please note that this functionality is not certified nor supported by Oracle. Make sure you understand the
    implications. Especially don't delete the junction points from Windows Explorer !!
    In the end you should have the junction points on the local disk (with the same names as the
    original directories) that would point to the directories you copied on the shared disk.
    8. Start the DB Console service and verify that everything is still working fine.
    9. Stop the DB Console service.
    10. Move the Fail Safe group to the 2nd node.
    11. Once the database is started, create the DB Console configuration files on the 2nd node:
    <ORACLE_HOME>/bin/emca -config dbcontrol db
    12. Stop the DB Console
    13. Delete the created configuration files from the local disk:
    C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\<hostname_sid>
    C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\oc4j\j2ee\OC4J_DBConsole_<hostname_sid>
    14. Create junction points from the local disk to the directories already located on the shared
    disk.
    15. Start the DB Console service and verify that is working fine.
    16. Add the DB Console service as a resource to the fail safe group and put dependencies on the
    database and listener services.
    17. Perform a fail over and see if everything works fine.

  • Database control in a cluster environment

    Hello DBA's
    Is it possible to use the database control in a windows cluster with oracle fail safe? I haven't found any documentation to this topic (only with RAC).
    I have two possibility's:
    1. To use it as a cluster service where I could connect with the clustername/IP address?
    Yet couldn't configure it right by my own.
    2. To use it as normal service where allways the active note can connect to the database control? (Problem with the Host-Names because each note has there own)
    I use Oracle 10.1.0.4 database with NO grid control only em database control.

    I found a Metalink entry how you can configure the Oracle Enterprise Manager in a FailSafe Environment but only for Grid Control:
    Note:396659.1     How To Setup Grid Control Central Agent Manually in Oracle Failsafe Environment
    Is there a script/guide to do it with the local "enterprise manager database control"?
    Replying to mnazi: Ok it is an overview and they mean that it is better to implement the enterprise manager to a management server but I couldn't found any hot information in the documentation to that. Maybe you know further info's?
