Hello,s
First of all, check the status of all resources by using crs_stat -t
Check if your VIP resource is indeed up and running on the node where you want to start the listener. As listener is depending upon this VIP address, it is needed to be up on the node where listener is configured. If this is the case then relocate the vip back to the system by using either of the following commands
1. crs_relocate <vip_resource_name>
OR
2. srvctl start nodeapps -n <hostname>
listener should be automatically up once crs relocates back the vip to the system.
If vip is already running fine on the system then check for your listener configuration as you check in normal systems.

Error when adding a new node to RAC 10g

Hi all,
I have a RAC 10g environment test in Linux Red Hat Umbreakble 5 with two nodes. This RAC is fine on 2 nodes.
I want to add a new node (rac3) of the following way:
- The node 1 (rac1) is started and the instance ORCL1 is online.
- The node 2 (rac2) is offline. i.e the machine is off.
- The node 3 (rac3). The machine is on and already configured
So that when I execute the CRS_home\oui\bin\addnode.bat on node 1 and put the information of node 3 (Public node name, Private node name, Virtual host name) and press next I get the following message:
OUI-35000: Fatal cluster error encountered (PRKC-1071 Nodes rac2 did not respond to ping in 30 seconds) - Sure: The machine is off;
My question is: Can´t I add a new node on RAC if a node is off ?
Anybody can help me.
Thanks.
(Wander Brazil)

Interesting question.
You might have better luck getting an answer if you ask where people discuss RAC, instead of asking where people report documentation issues. (Go to http://forums.oracle.com and scroll down to 'Grid Computing' to see RAC forums.)

How to failover SCAN VIP and SCAN Listener from one node to another?

Environment:
O.S : HP-UX B.11.31 U ia64
RDBMS: Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production
It is a 2 Node RAC.
Question:
How to failover the SCAN VIP and SCAN LISTENER running on node 1 to node 2?
What is the relation between standard LISTENER and SCAN LISTENER ?
Why do we need LISTENER, when we have SCAN LISTENER ?
When I tried with SRCVTL STOP LISTENER , I thought the SCAN LISTENER adn SCAN IP will failover, but it did not?
Also please clarify if I use SRVCTL RELOCATE SCAN -i 1 -n Node1
Actalluy I am trying that by moving the SCAN listeners so that when I do PSU 7 patching on 1 node, no incoming attempt to connect will spawn
a process and thereby opening files in $ORACLE_HOME (which would prevent the patch from occurring)
Please clarify my queries.
Thanks, Sivaprasad.S

Hi Sivaprasad,
1. The following link will help you for SCAN VIP and SCAN LISTENER failover from 1 node to another.
http://heliosguneserol.wordpress.com/2012/10/19/how-to-relocate-scan_listener-from-one-node-to-another-node-on-rac-system/
http://oracledbabay.blogspot.co.uk/2013/05/steps-to-change-scan-ip-address-in.html
2. The Standard LISTENER is specific for particular node for which it is running. It cannot be relocated as its specific for the node its running. SCAN listeners are not replacements for the node listeners.A new set of cluster processes called scan listeners will run on three nodes in a cluster (or all nodes if there are less than 3). If you have more than three nodes, regardless of the number of nodes you have, there will be at most three scan listeners. So no relation for standard LISTENER and SCAN LISTENER.
3. Hmmm. let me put it in easy way for this question. All the RAC services like, asm, db , services, nodeapps registers with this SCAN_LISTENER. So if any of these services (asm, db , services, nodeapps) got down/not running, the SCAN_LISTENER will know the down status, and if any client requests to access the node/service which is down, the SCAN_LISTENER will redirect the client request to the least loaded node. So here all these process will happen without the knowledge of client. And As usual the standard LISTENER looks only for incoming request to connect with the database. So we need both LISTENER and SCAN LISTENER.
4. If you provide SRCVTL STOP LISTENER, it stops the default listener on the specified node_name, or the listeners represented in a given list of listener names, that are registered with Oracle Clusterware on the given node. No failover will happen under this case.
5. Yes you can relocate if you want to relocate the scan.
Hope this helps!!

Pradeep. V

Error starting observer from remote node

Hello all.
I have a two nodes Veritas (not important) cluster with Data Guard. I don't have shared drives, I know!
Now, I had configured an observer in one of the nodes which was working fine but for obvious reasons, I tried to move it to a third node.
This is the error I'm getting and I have no idea how to solve it out. What surprises me is that the wrong "parameter" is not shown even in Metalink.

{code}
Thanks for any help you can give me.
Alex.

Hmm. Well, I don't see how would that help. It's the same command I'm running but in silent mode. The result is the same.
What bothers me is the message:
Error: ORA-16591: unknown field "obsv_recn" in document
I couldn't find anything related to that field/parameter on the web. Also, what's the "document" is referring too? fsfo.dat? In that case, is blank in my case.
Again, I've set this up on another server (one of the nodes where the databases resides) and created the configuration "create configuration" and "enable configuration" from there, but not here.
Do I have to remove the configuration and start all over again from this third node?
Thanks,
Alex.

Rac One Node on Rac Servers

Hi Xperts
We have this environment:
2 Rac Nodes 11.2.0.3 Enterprise on Oracle Linux 5.9 .
We have one production Database on this Rac and the users ask to create two single instance on each node, something like this:
Node1 -> Rac Prod1, Single Test
Node2-> Rac Prod2, Single Dev
I want to create Rac One node for those Database (Dev, Test) and create New Diskgroups for ech database.
Can I install a Rac One node on those Server with DBCA?
Do I nedd to Install new Database Software ?
Does the installed Rac have some affectation ?
I just want to be sure about this procedure, before to do anything.
Thank you
J.A.

Hi J.A.
Yes you can! However you need to install Grid Infrastructure (GI) in cluster on both nodes, then install database software. Either during software installation or after that, DBCA would allow you to create 1) Single instance, 2) RAC database, 3) RAC One Node database. Keep in mind that RAC One Node is an option (additional license) to the Enterprise Edition of Oracle Database.
I've talked on that topic at the Bulgarian Oracle Users Group at 2011, here is the link to the presentation, you may find it useful. I might upload the videos as well if you need to have something like a proof of concept of just for your own:
http://sve.to/download/1112/
Also I would go with one disk group for both databases, as long as they share the same physical disks I don't see the point of doing that ? Having one diskgroup would allow you to utilize better you disk/space resources.
The procedure would be:
1. Install GI in cluster.
2. Install software libraries.
3. Patch up to 11.2.0.4.
4. Create RAC One Node database using either command line or using Custom Template of DBCA.
At the end of the day, if you have standard edition license you can still install GI in cluster and create single instance databases on each server. The downside of doing that is that you need to manually failover the database to remaining node in case of disaster.

Sve

Ora.reco.acfsvol.acfs only on one node on RAC on ODA

We have an ODA (old model) and by a power failure in the data center both boot disks in one node are we gone faulty.
After replacing the chassis, RAID controllers and disks (Oracle Filed Engenieer) reports crsctl stat res -t following:
[grid @ XXXXXXXXA ~] $ crsctl stat res -t
TARGET NAME SERVER STATE STATE_DETAILS
Local Resources
ora.reco.acfsvol.acfs
ONLINE ONLINE XXXXXXXXXA mounted on / cloudfs
OFFLINE OFFLINE XXXXXXXXXBvolume / cloudfs off
is that correct?
Oracle support referred me to MOS 1319263.1, but that's for Exadata ....
Thx
Christoph
(i masked the hostname)

No, this is not correct. Your resource should be online on both nodes.
What happens if you try and start the resource manually using srvctl start filesystem?
Have you checked to see if your volume is online?

Oracle Binary Currepted in One node 11g RAC

Hi Team,
/oracle(Oracle Home ) folder currepted in one node.
IBM AIX-11.2.0.1
How to reolve the same.
Thanks
Manohar.

1. take the backup of current oracle_home corrupted.
2. Tar the other node oracle_home as below, and copy it to the corrupted node.
tar cvf location <tarname>.tar oraInventory product
3. Extracted the tar on the corrupted node by delting the existing corrupted oracle_home
tar xvf /location/<name>.tar
Now, complete the Oracle RDBMS Cloning Process of the above mentioned untar done in earlier steps:
cd $ORACLE_HOME/clone/bin
Perl clone.pl ORACLE_HOME="<LOCATION>" ORACLE_HOME_NAME="OraDb10g_home1"
Run manual command of “relink all”

Why RAW partitions are visible only on one node in RAC?

I am having 2 node RAC on Windows 2003 Server.
Can anybody tell me why the RAW partitions are visible on RAC-2 but not on RAC-1.
I Shutted down RAC-2, and I thought all the RAW devices will appear in RAC-1, but it didn't work, it is displaying only LOCAL DRIVE.
Why???

I am using Microsoft Virtual Server and I have configured SCSI type shared disks.
I executed the given command
C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\crs\bin>cluvfy comp ssa -n rac-1,rac-2
Result : Shared storage check was successful on both the nodes..
Both the nodes are working properly but I want to know the reason 'why the shared disks are not visible on node1'?
Thanks

Printer communication error, canon mx870 prints one time then communication error on next print job

I have a canon mx870. It keeps sending a message that there is a communication error. I then re enter my network key and restart the printer and my macbook pro. It will print a few times then the message returns. My PC is also connected to the network and does not get this message. Any suggestions?

Hi c,
There were some updates addressing printing issues. Run Software Update, update whatever's there, and see if that helps.

Hi Friends,
I faced one situation where one node of RAC cluster had been rebooted by other node. This happen due to network interconnect link fluctuation.

This clearly shows CSSD of node kkvs1a has given node eviction message to kkvs1b node.
I got following messages on the instance which got rebooted:
ASM alert log:
Sat Sep 14 00:22:25 IST 2013
Error: KGXGN aborts the instance (6)

Errors in file /opt/oracle/admin/+ASM/bdump/+asm2_lmon_8527.trc:
ORA-29702: error occurred in Cluster Group Service operation
LMON: terminating instance due to error 29702
A network fluctuation shouldn't give reboot like this. Then why oracle design like this way? Is this a bug? My oracle version is: 10.2.0.5.0
Could you tell me the other possible situations when 1 RC instance reboots other RAC instacne.

What you are describing is the expected behaviour: if your interconnect fails, you will have a node eviction. Releases < 11.2.0.2 evict a node by reboot, which can fix the problem: the NIC may come up correctly when the machine re-starts. Releases >= 11.2.0.2 can often evict without a re-boot. But either way, if your interconnect goes down, a node must be evicted to prevent uncoordinated disc writes.
If you are interested, you can find some discussion and demos of this in a series of webcasts I've recorded,
Free Oracle Database Tutorials for Administration and Developers
If you really don't like this behaviour and the problems are transient, you can try 'raising the CSS MISSCOUNT parameter.

Can RAC and RAC One Node share the same servers ?

Does anyone know if it is possible for RAC and the new 11gR2 RAC One Node to share the same set of physical servers i.e. in effect having 2 clusters sharing the same set of servers ( though you could argue RAC One node is a different type of clustering or even that it is not real clustering at all - more instance transporting ).
Or does standard RAC always require exlusive use of the physical servers it is using as its nodes ?
Any thoughts appreciated
Jim

Hi Jim,
To deploy RAC we need Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a cluster (aka Oracle Clusterware) on top.
What determine if it's Single /RAC /RAC one Node is the Installation of Oracle Database.
So, Oracle Clusterware support on Same Cluster ( RAC/ RAC one Node / Single).
You will need one installation for each Feature.
e.g on Same Cluster
---> Grid Infrastructure GRID_HOME=/u01/app/11.2.0/grid
--->> RAC one Node /ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/racone_11203
--->> RAC /ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/rac_11203
--->> SINGLE /ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_11203
For me make no sense RAC ONE NODE and RAC on same cluster.
Because RAC ONE NODE is a RAC with less feature.

Lync Server 2013 Front End Pool Mediation Service only works on one node

Hello, I'm currently experiencing an interesting issue with a Lync 2013 Front End Pool implementation on a customer, and I don't know if this is by design or am I missing something.
We implemented 3 Enterprise Front End Servers in a Pool with a hardware load balancer and we have them configured also as a mediation Pool.
We have a SIP trunk to an Avaya PBX which was perfectly working before on a Lync 2010 Implementation that we migrated to these new 2013 Front End Pools.
Now the SIP traffic is only working when configured directly to one node of the pool. If we configure it to any other node the calls fail. We also tried configuring the HLB for port 5060 for the pool and pointed the PBX to that IP but the calls also fail.
Searching around I read something about that the PBX has to be Lync certified in order to use DNS load balancing to send SIP traffic to the mediation pool, however, I don't think DNS load balancing will work because the other nodes doesn't connect the calls
from the PBX, only one node appears to be listening for the SIP Trunk.
I also restarted the mediation service on one non-working mediation server node and the event viewer on the working mediation server node showed events that it restarted the service, Not the non-working one, it's like only one server from the pool
is doing as mediation server.
So even if I get a Lync Certified PBX/Media Gateway, the mediation service doesn't appear to be load balanced, or how does it work in order to do that?
Thanks.

Just a few things about what should be happening. Each front-end server should be listening on the port configured in topology builder for the mediation service. So if that is port 5060, verify that you see that port listening on all front-end servers
by running a netstat -ano. From a local workstation, also make sure you can connect to that port via a telnet IPAddress 5060. As you say, you should be able to send any of the three mediation servers an inbound call.
Outbound calls will round robin out of the enterprise pool. So you shouldn't see all of the calls coming out of a single server.
A few other items I would look into:
- Make sure your ports are right. Ensure that you are matching ports on the Avaya and Lync. It's not a hard requirement but makes life easier to troubleshoot. So if the Avaya is 5060, just make sure TCP/5060 enabled in your mediation pools
and that your gateways/trunks are also set to TCP/5060.
- Look outside the Lync Event Viewer and see if anything strange (.net errors) are being tossed anywhere else during startup of the mediation service. I once had to remove the mediation server installer (Program and Features | Remove) and rebootstrap
the server because something went sideways during an install.
Thanks,
Richard

Postscript report fail - REP-3000: Internal error starting Oracle toolkit

Hi,
I am receiving the error REP-3000: Internal error starting Oracle Toolkit when I am running a conc. program with postscript as output. I changed Active Users program and tested it. It failed.
Metalink says DISPLAY issue. I ran the concurrent program - "Prints environment variable values" giving DISPLAY as variable. I received a value. like <hostname>:0.0
What could be the issue?
Release - 11.5.10.2
OS -Linux
Apache, Forms on 1 Node, Concurrent Manager on the second one.
Database - 10g R2 on Unix.
Thanks
