CRS HOME & 9iR2 RAC ORACLE_HOME Different Owners

Facts:
2 Node Cluster, Sun T2000
O/S: Sun Sparc Solaris 64 bit 5.10
3rd Party Clusterware - Veritas Storage Foundation for RAC (SFRAC) 5.0 MP3
CRS: 10.2.0.4
CRS is owned by oracle:dba (with the exception of anything owned by root)
9iR2 (9.2.0.8) RAC RDBMS ORACLE_HOME is owned by oraofsg:dba
9iR2 (9.2.0.8) RAC Database Name: ofsg
10gR2 (10.2.0.4) RAC RDBMS ORACLE_HOME is owned by oracle:dba
Metalink note 220970.1
Misc. Info:
Action: /var/opt/oracle/srvConfig.loc was renamed after 9i database and GSD stopped prior to installing CRS.
Why?: 10g CRS chose to use 9i's srvm.dbf rather than the file system I had created for the 10g CRS cluster registry.
Task at Hand:
Need to register 9.2.0.8 RAC database ofsg under 10gR2 CRS.
Issue:
As 9i RAC database owner oraofsg with the 9i RAC environment set, and 9i GSD down:
srvctl add database -d oraofsg -o /sv01/sw/oraofsg/ofsgdb/9.2.0
PRKR-1005 : adding of cluster database ofsg configuration failed, PROC-5: User does not have permission to perform a cluster registry operation on this key. Authentication error [User [oraofsg] does not match with initialized user] [0]
Question: Has anyone successfully registered a 9i RAC database under 10g CRS?
Thanks for your consideration.
Regards,
Jerry

Hi
CRS_HOME must be owned by a different user:group (preferably root) than $ORACLE_HOME (owned by oracle), for several reasons like patching.
Please note also that you will need an ASM dedicated home and also a AGENT_HOME that can be owned by oracle.
Hope this helps.

MULTIPLE USERS 10G RAC ORACLE_HOME INSTALL WITH ASM/CRS

Hi,
We need to install multiple 10g RAC databases on a two node Sun servers. Below is our configuration:
1) Sun Solaris (ver 10) with Sun Cluster 3.2
2) One ASM/CRS install (by 1 OS account)
3) Four ORACLE_HOME 10g database install (by 4 different OS user accounts)
We would like to use one ASM instance for all four databases with appropriate privileges.
OS User:           OS Group
========      =========
oraasm           dbaasm - (ASM and CRS install owner)
ora1           dbaora1 - first db owner
ora2           dbaora2 - second db owner
ora3           dbaora3 - third db owner
ora4           dbaora4 - fourth db owner
I understand that certain privileges need to be shared between ASM/CRS and DB owners. Please let me know the steps to be followed to complete this install.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
Please read that: Documentation http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/B10766_08/intro.htm
- You can install and operate multiple Oracle homes and different versions of Oracle cluster database software on the same computer as described in the following points:
-You can install multiple Oracle Database 10g RAC homes on the same node. The multiple homes feature enables you to install one or more releases on the same machine in multiple Oracle home directories. However, each node can have only one CRS home.
-In addition, you cannot install Oracle Database 10g RAC into an existing single-instance Oracle home. If you have an Oracle home for Oracle Database 10g, then use a different Oracle home, and one that is available across the entire cluster for your new installation. Similarly, if you have an Oracle home for an earlier Oracle cluster database software release, then you must also use a different home for the new installation.
If the OUI detects an earlier version of a database, then the OUI asks you about your upgrade preferences. You have the option to upgrade one of the previous-version databases with DBUA or to create a new database using DBCA. The information collected during this dialog is passed to DBUA or DBCA after the software is installed.
- You can use the OUI to complete some of the de-install and re-install steps for Oracle Database 10g Real Application Clusters if needed.
Note:
Do not move Oracle binaries from one Oracle home to another because this causes dynamic link failures.
. If you are using ASM with Oracle database instances from multiple database homes on the same node, then Oracle recommends that you run the ASM instance from an Oracle home that is distinct from the database homes. In addition, the ASM home should be installed on every cluster node. This prevents the accidental removal of ASM instances that are in use by databases from other homes during the de-installation of a database's Oracle home.

Install CRS and RAC with different users

I' m tring to install CRS and RAC with different users.
It is supported but I don't find documentation.
Have someone experience with this configuration ?
My question are related to permission/own of voting and ocr file.
in this configuration is CRS owner or DB owner that run srvctl commands ?
Thanks !

Yes it is ... check out the RAC FAQ on metalink, and just as Chris metioned the users will need to have the oinstall group as their primary..
"Is it supported to install CRS and RAC as different users.
Yes, CRS and RAC can be installed as different users. The CRS user and the RAC user must both have "oinstall" as their primary group, and the RAC user should be a member of the OSDBA group.

Can we have separate 10gR2 RAC CRS and 11gR2 RAC CRS homes on same Unix s

We'd like to test the upgrade of our 10gR2 RAC databases to 11gR2 RAC.
We have six databases on the same server and want to install a separate 11g RAC stack (11g CRS, 11g ASM, 11g RDBMS) and upgrade each 10g database from 10g RAC stack on same server (10g CRS, 10g ASM, 10g RDBMS) . Is it ok to have 10g CRS home and 11g CRS home same server? If not, how best to upgrade without buying more hardware?
Thanks in advance,
Lou

In more detail, the main issue/question is whether there can be 2 Oracle CRS homes on the same server i.e. separate 10gR2 and 11gR2 CRS homes residing on the same server for the purposes of (gradually) upgrading all Oracle RDBMS homes from 10g RAC to 11g RAC.
Can there be? What would be the implications for the OCR and voting disk? In our case 10g CRS has OCR and Voting Disk on raw devices. In 11gR2, these would need to be migrated/upgraded/stored in ASM, right?
We have 6 10g rdbms homes in addition to the one 10g CRS home and one 10g ASM home. To upgrade can we
- Install 11gR2 CRS in a separate home (this would now include ASM as well)
- Install 11gR2 RDBMS home
- Upgrade one of the 6 10g databases while leaving the others untouched as 10g databases in the separate 10g CRS, 10g ASM stack?
Any ideas, pointers greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Lou

Apply quaterly CPU to CRS home?

Hello experts,
I am in the process of upgrading 4 node RAC cluster from 10.2.0.2 to 10.2.0.3. However I have a doubt to which I am unable to find a good solution or document yet.
I have two ORACLE_HOME, a CRS and db_1 home on my Linux server and they both are on 10.2.0.2. My db_1 home has upto date CPU applied.
Now my question is, before upgrading to 10.2.0.3, do I need to apply the CPU patches to CRS home? I am bit confused.
Also is there any metalink document (other than the document that comes with the upgrade patch) on how to safely upgrade to 10.2.0.3?
Thank you in advance.
--M M

Thanks troach, I agree with you that latest patch set has all the fixes upto point. However, since I have two oracle_homes and the fact that I have applied the patches to db home only (not CRS home), I am not quite sure if I need to apply security patches to CRS home too so that both homes can be on the same patcheset (CPUs) before I start upgrading.
The reason I am asking is, according to Upgrade Document, CRS version should be higher or equal to the current db home version and I am not quite sure if I need to apply CPUs on CRS home first to make it consistent the db home before upgrading CRS to 10.2.0.3
Also, thanks for the advice to go to 10.2.0.4. However, my company's policy is against upgrading to newer patch set right away.
Thanks for your time again...

Multiple Oracle CRS Homes Installation

My Production environment is planned to use oracle Database RAC configuration, SAPCTL, and Oracle CRS as the High availability Solution I need for a sample TEST environment for this configuration to test Oracle Homes Patching and different configuration before apply to Production is it supported to have the same Hardware Server to Host Both TEST and Production RAC Database including the tow oracle Homes and tow Oracle CRS Home.

I have a publication of the implementation of sapctl on my homepage.
However, this written in Portuguese language, any questions, please contact me.

CRS HOME vs ORACLE BASE

Hi,
Please i need clarification on this issue:
When you have your CRS HOME as a subdirectory of your ORACLE_BASE, whats the implication. I saw an ORACLE DOCs, that says that your CRS_HOME should not be a subdirectory of your ORACLE_BASE;
say:
CRS_HOME=/oraprod/test/crs
ORACLE_BASE=/oraprod/test
ORACLE_HOME=/oraprod/test/ora10g
We have this settings in place, its working fine with a 2-node RAC DB but we are finding it extremely difficult to set-up another RAC Database on the same CRS_HOME to use same crs resources.
Any help on this would be appreciated.
Thanks
Innocent

Do you think this will also affect installation of
another RAC DATABASE in the same BASE directory?Here is permission of CRS_HOME
$cd $CRS_HOME
$ ls -lisa
total 200
20405304 4 drwxr-xr-x 37 root dba 4096 Feb 23 22:14 .
20405303 4 drwxr-xr-x 11 oracle dba 4096 Feb 23 22:24 ..
As listing shown above , parent directory is owned by
oracle, so it will allow to install Oracle.

Relocate CRS HOME

Hi all,
I have a scenarion at client where in the crs mount point is almost 90% full.
The OS (HP-UX) team said that it cannot be extended. The strategy they said that they will create a new lun on storage and mount on server remove existing mount point and rename. After copying the binaries of crs home. Reboot and check.
Here the doubt is will it work. Tried some googling and metalink search but couldnt find related info. According to me there might be issues with linking and inventory. Even OCR backup goes in CRS HOME what abt that. Or should i completely remove crs installation and add a mount point and again install crs.
The environment is oracle 10gR2 RAC 2 nodes on HP-UX 11i.
Any suggestion or info would be of great help.
Thanks

Hi,
you need to reinstall CRS to be able to relocate home. But you can save time by cloning the CRS home this does not mean the OCR and other cluster configuration will remain as it is this only mean a installation without OUI OCR and vote and all other resources will be reconfigured.
you said your new mount will be on storage server. So, are you moving from local installation to shared home installation as well?
Thanks
Rajesh

How do I use Home Sharing with two different apple accounts?

How to set OracleDataSource to a different owner.

I have a Java(JSP) page which reads off an oracle DB table using a OracleDataSource object.
Code sample
OracleDataSource ods;
ods = new OracleDataSource();
ods.setUser("Username");
ods.setPassword("Password");
ods.setURL".............");
Connection conn = ods.getConnection();
Statement stmt = conncreateStatement();
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("select * from Table_a");
My problem now is that Table_a has been moved to a different owner so now I have to append the owner name to the table name. Now my query will have to be changed to "select * from New_Owner.Table_a".
Question:
Is there a way so that I do not have to append the owner name to all table names in my query. Like maybe set my OracleDataSource object to a different owner.

RAC with different OS?

Hi
I want to add another cluster to my RAC with different OS (Windows 2003). And my clusters OS is "Suse 9". Can I do it or should I change Windows OS to Suse?
Regard

Hi
Thanks for your attention
I have a RAC with two cluster (Suse 9 OS). And I want to add another cluster with Windows 2003 OS. I don't have any problem with network setting (node connectivity) just I have problem with 'Oracle' user (user equivalence).
now my question:
Is a way to define the 'Oracle' user in Windows OS?
mean while I used the NFS for disk-sharing, and I can use a "MS Windows Services for NFS" for define my users and groups.
another question: Can I use different type of Linux like FreeBSD or RedHat?
Best Regards

Weblogic 8.1 with Oracle 9iR2 RAC

Hi, Expert All
I am having a problem of unbalanced connections connecting to two instances of an Oracle 9iR2 RAC db. I have 3 Weblogic Servers. The situation is that most of the time (8/10) majority of connections made to instance1:instance2 are (server1 2:25, server2 1:26, server3 0:27). It seems that the tns entry of (failover=on)(load_balance=on) is not working. :-(. So how can I achieve a relatively balanced configuration? Thanks.

Hi,
1st: whether it will be a Homogenous or Hetrogenous system copy?
This will be homogenous system copy
2nd: can i use the hp dataprotector to restore on different hardware?If anyone has experience with restoring on different
hardware using dataprotector please share..
dataprotector is backup utility, for using this utility you have to configure dataprotector client on new hardware , after which you will be able to restore the database.
