Creating ASM after installing grid infrastructure software only option

OS environment is Solaris 10 sparc (64 bit) with suncluster 3.2. Oracle version is 11.2.0.3.0... ASM configuration also..
Grid binaries (i.e. GRID_HOME) will be placed in local disk on both the nodes. Oracle Binaries (ORACLE_HOME) also will be placed in local disk on both the nodes..Oracle database only will be placed in shared storage with ASM...
My doubt is If i select "install grid infrastructure software only" option, can i create separate ASM instance on each node by using "$GRID_HOME/dbs/initSID.ora" file of each node?
Is it possible to create two ASM instance in the clustered environment since Single instance Oracle ASM is not supported with Oracle 11g release 2 as per "Oracle® Solaris Cluster Data Service for Oracle Guide"?
Please tell me the suggestion if anyone knows........
Thanks & Regards

Hi,
First of all "software only installation" only places the binaries onto the local disks. This software only binaries later have to be configured either for GI Standalone Server or GI for Cluster environment. It differs in the root.sh script to be called, and in the need to use config.sh to configure the cluster environment.
So by configuring standalone server GI later, you will only have a local ASM installation.
However you will not end up with a initSID.ora file for the ASM instance, since the spfile of the ASM instance will always be placed inside the first ASM diskgroup to be configured. (the same for GI cluster, as for GI SI).
Now creating clustered ASM and SI ASM => you can only create clustered ASM for nodes which participate in the same cluster. So if you configured both nodes with clustered GI, but did not tell them to be 1 cluster, but 2, then both ASM instances will be separate. Resulting in beeing ASM1 instance on both nodes, and not able to mount the same diskgroup (consistent of the same disks) on both servers at the same time. So in the end having 2 clusteres consisting of one node each, does not really differ much from the ASM point of view, other than having ASM1 as instance name instead of +ASM (in GI SI). The difference is in the cluster stack below ASM, which simply has more processes and requirement for the clustered GI version.
And last but not least, yes you can have separate ASM instances on 2 separate nodes. If they are not part of the same cluster, the ASM instances are independent.
They are not really single instances, since they know that they are RAC ASMs, however they do not communicate with other nodes. However you may only have one ASM instance on each host (either physical or virtual host, as you can have an ASM instance in each solaris container).
Hope that clarifies it.
Regards
Sebastian

  • System re-booted  while installing grid infrastructure software(11 gr2)

    Good day,
    While installing grid infrastructure software(11 gr2) for two node cluster on Redhat 5.4, the system re-booted i.e.node 1
    just after the completion of running root.sh file on node 2.
    My question is how to resume installation again.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Check if $GRID_HOME/cfgtoollogs/configToolAllCommands exist, if the file is there then as grid user execute the script
    but to be safe and have clean installation I would deinstall it and re-run the installation

  • ASM prerquisit- Installing Grid infrastructure on AIX 6.1

    Hello All,
    I want to implement Oracle RAC 11g R2 on AIX 6.1.
    I am preparing the prerequisite steps.
    My question is regarding ASM.
    Do i Have to create disks on my SAN storage, so I can create the ASM disk groups ?
    how can I link the disk groups to physical disks ?
    I used that before on Linux, but what i did that i create 5 physical disks then created an ASM disk group from these 5 disks ? how should i manage that in AIX?
    Another issue:
    On Linux I used to do the below:
    1. I used the "fdisk" command to partition the disks ? should i do that on AIX? how it can be done?
    2. I downloaded the appropriate ASMLib RPM for Linux. Is there anything like that for AIX?
    3. I used to configure ASM lib as below :
    # oracleasm configure -i
    Configuring the Oracle ASM library driver.
    This will configure the on-boot properties of the Oracle ASM library
    driver.  The following questions will determine whether the driver is
    loaded on boot and what permissions it will have.  The current values
    will be shown in brackets ('[]').  Hitting <ENTER> without typing an
    answer will keep that current value.  Ctrl-C will abort.
    Default user to own the driver interface []: grid
    Default group to own the driver interface []: dba
    Start Oracle ASM library driver on boot (y/n) [n]: y
    Scan for Oracle ASM disks on boot (y/n) [y]:
    Writing Oracle ASM library driver configuration: done
    # is there any step like that in AIX?
    4. I used to create disks like below, How do i do that on AIX?
    # /usr/sbin/oracleasm createdisk DISK1 /dev/sdb1
    # /usr/sbin/oracleasm scandisks
    # /usr/sbin/oracleasm listdisks

  • Installing Grid Infrastructure 11gR2 on a 2nodes cluster: device names req.

    Hello, I am trying to install Grid Infrastructure 11gR2 on 2 sun nodes (Solaris 10) in order to try the product. but I am finding an error on the second node. After installing the software on both nodes and executing root.sh in the first node, the second node is complaining about the device I have defined for OCR, voting and ASM (the easiest scenary, 1 diskgroup for OCR, voting and ASM with 1 disk ) :
    DiskGroup conf_dg creation failed with the following message:
    ORA-15018: diskgroup cannot be created
    ORA-15031: disk     specification '/dev/rdsk/c5t500601603CE02E8Ed20s0' matches no disks
    I have realised this device has not the same name on both nodes as boxes are different; the device name in the second system is
    c2t500601673CE02E8Ed20s0
    This is slice 0 of and EMC Clariion LUN. As this info is recorded at the crsconfig_params file in both nodes and is the same, should the device names be the same on the N nodes of a Clusterware cluster? How should I do to correct the installation of the second node?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Gurus,
    I have similar problems on very first node1, it cannot create the diskgroup when running the root.sh. here is my configuration
    two guest ldoms running sol 10 update10 on sparc t5120 and sharing iscsi Luns provided by third ldom ( created zfs volumes and set shareiscsi on)
    all the permissions are 777 on /dev/rdsk/c1t*d0s1 and ownership grid:oinstall.
    using solaris.sparc64_11gR2_grid.zip
    I have installed 11gr2 rac for x86 using similar configuration with all x86 machines. but I cannot install using sparc as mentioned above. I have put some logs here
    much appreciated for you help.
    Thanks.

  • Install Grid Infrastructure

    Try to install Grid Infrastructure (ASM) 11gR2 on SUSE Linux 11. Installation went through well untill the very last steps. The message indicated:
    Configure Oracle Grid Infrastructure for Standalone Server   -- failed
    *Automatic Storage Management Configuration Assistant failed.   --failed.*
    What could be the solution?

    The log does state: Successfully configured Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a Standalone Server
    Then it moves on to configure 'Automatic Storage Management Configuration Assistant'
    There it says:
    Starting 'Automatic Storage Management Configuration Assistant'
    Error while detecting Oracle Grid Infrastructure. ASMCA needs Oracle Grid Infrastructure to configure ASM.
    It sounds like that Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a Standalone Server was indeed successfully configured. However, for some reason the ASMCA could not find it.
    Next, I did the following:
    . oraenv
    ORACLE_SID = [oracle] ? +ASM
    ORACLE_HOME ...
    asmca
    The ASMCA GUI windows opened.
    After I enter the required info, then click on Create ASM button, this is what it displyed:
    Oracle Grid Infrastructure is not configured properly. ASMCA needs Oracle Grid Infrastructure to configure ASM.
    What could be wrong?

    What you mean by "starter database" ?
    You like have database without sample HR schema ?
    I think that is not possible install option.
    But that is only one schema, and you can drop it after install if you do not need it.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the reply!!!
    I have installed 11g grid infra on 2 nodes and then try to install 10g grid control on node 1 but when i am booting my system it got hanged and throw an error:
    sql>ora-01078: failure in processing system parameter

    then i have to forcefully bring down the system and started the linux in a single user mode and thereover i have to move or rename the dir to some other location,then only system get started.after starting up the system i have to again move or rename the grid control dir to org location.
    So my question is which file or dir is forcing system to startup the grid control on boot?

  • Trouble with 10g after Installing Grid Control

    Main problem: after installing Grid Control and rebooting, I can no longer access my databases.
    I have 10g installed on a fairly decent Windows XP machine. It was running okay, but I had two Oracle database instance processes running at 200mb of RAM each (of a total of 1 GB of RAM), so it was a bit bogged down, as is to be expected when running Oracle as a server on Windows.
    I then installed Grid Control, which seemed to go okay, and another database as well. But once the install completed, and I gained access to the Grid Control version of the OEM for the first time, that's when things got wacky. Connecting to any OEM instance started taking anywhere from 2-10 minutes, everything was bogged down considerably, etc. I tried shutting everything down and rebooting, but now things are worse. OEM is timing out and not finding servers, listener is timing out, etc. I've tried manipulating a few things in Net Manager (I noticed that my LISTENER section didn't seem to contain any data at all, and my databases weren't listed in there either) with no result.
    I've also had trouble with "host credentials" and being able to administer the databases within the OEM, even after implementing a fix I had found to add my user name to a "log on as batch job" local security policy.
    Finally, I noticed that after installing Grid Control, when I run "sqlplus", I now see "Oracle91 Enterprise Edition" instead of the "Oracle10g" it used to show (and I never had anything but 10g installed on this machine!).
    Here's what happens when I try to access my dBs:
    -When I try to launch the OEM connected to any of the 3 databases I created (which were previsouly running), the browser just times out with "page cannot be displayed".
    -When I run "emctl start <ANYTHING>" I get file/path not found errors, and a file path with both forward and backward slashes (starting after the "agent" directory):
    C:\oracle\product\10.1.0\agent/<...etc.>
    -When I try to test a connection to a service in Net Manager, I get this error:
    ORA-12557: TNS:protocol adapter not loadable
    I had to manually add my listener info and databases info(under Service Naming) in Net Manager, but everything appeared fine in Oracle Directory Manager (unfortunately, that doesn't help much, since this is just a general info tool).
    I am nothing near a DBA and my knowledge is limited, so I apologize for not being more consise, but I'd be glad to elaborate if someone could tell me what they need to know.
    Thank you,
    John

    Yes; thank you both. Although I had 1 GB physical and 1.5 GB virtual memory configured, running Grid Control seemed to completely kill all available resources.
    I have removed GC and its related database and applications, and I can again conncet to my databases via Database Control. Thank you.
    By the way, another issue has arisen, seemingly in the aftermath of installing GC: my OEM Database Control instances now time out after about 60 seconds, logging me out each and every time. I have cookies enabled, but this doesn't seem to be the trouble. Is there a Web setting somewhere that will kick users out of the instance at timed intervals?

  • After installing Acrobat 8, can only open Word in safe mode

    After installing Acrobat 8, can only open Word in safe mode. If I delete my customized Normal.dot, then all is well. However I want the macros available from the customized Normal.dot. I tried switching Templates after opening Word and it immediately triggers an error message: "Word has encountered a problem and needs to close." It then recovers all my recent documents even though they were fine, had no need to be saved. Thinking that Normal.dot had been corrupted, I went back to the original M$ Normal.dot and re-created my macros and saved as a new Normal.dot. The next time I open Word, I get the error message.
    I have a template with only one macro. It does not cause this problem. The template I prefer has 3 macros and I will need to create more.
    Acrobat 8 Prof. with all updates
    Windows XP
    Word 2003 SP 3 with updates
    Thank you in advance for any help you may give.

    I am told by my company's IT folks that the problem resides with Office 2003 sp3. If you remove SP3 and revert to SP2, the issue vanishes, so they say (I have not done it yet).
    M$ is possibly ignoring the issue permanently, since they are on a new initiative to unseat PDF in favor of their own document format they're working on presently. I've sent a million error reports to them and....NOTHING.
    Good luck.

  • Error PRVF-7565 received when installing Grid Infrastructure 12102 on OEL7/64bit

    When installing GI on OEL7 I got this error PRVF-7565. Any clue?

    Hi,
    Try use kfod utility:
    Note: Keep in mind that the Grid Infrastructure software does not need to be installed to use kfod, since kfod is located as well on the staging area where you uncompressed the Grid Infrastructure software, as the following example:
    /stage/grid/stage/ext/bin/kfod
    Where: "/stage" is the directory where I uncompressed the source software for the Grid Infrastructure software.
    And put here :
    $ kfod asm_diskstring='/dev/usasdirvg801_asm*' disks=all

    Unfortunately I tried that and it didn't work. Thanks for the help though. I tried to uninstall and it said I couldn't because the file is corrupt or something, but I think I finally got it uninstalled and/or deleted or whatever, but now I try to reinstall/download it again from the beginning and I can't. No matter what I do I can not get Firefox working again. No matter how many times I try to redownload it. Any other suggestions?
