Fail Safe Virtual IP Problems

I have a Windows 2008 R2 SP1 2 node active/passive cluster with fail safe 3.4.2 installed. I also have 11G database software installed. My problem is I am unable to successsfully add an oracle virtual IP to the oracle group within fail safe. I receive the below error when I try. Can anyone please help me in the right direction with this? I need to get this resolved so that I can add my databases to the cluster. Thank you.

FS-10012: Failed to bring the cluster resource Network Name HHVHAVELP01 online. Check the Windows event log for messages.
FS-10726: Resource Network Name HHVHAVELP01 is in a failed state
I don't see any message in the event log when I check...

Hi,
Your problem looks-like this metalink note 416339.1
Check it on oracle support.

Problem in Resource moving Oracle Fail safe

Hi ,
I have Os clustering Oracle Fail Safe configured here(10g enterprise Edition)
While Performin test ... cluster resources are not moving to another server due to which oracle database are not getting start on another cluster node ...
Plz help mee guys....

Hi Friend,
Please specify your Oracle Database version & Oracle Failsafe Version.
Please check the following :
1. When you configure a Fail Safe group, the most important information that you supply is the group name and the associated virtual server address.
2. The host name, database instance, SID entry, and protocol information must match on both cluster nodes and on each client system that is running Oracle Fail Safe Manager.
Hope it helps....
Thanks

After applying patch of 3.4.2.3, still i'm facing this problem. But however there are very less errors....I think the problem is with Listener.

Win 2003 Cluster + Oracle Fail Safe + Dataguard (physical & Logical)

Hello, 
 
It´s my first post (sorry for my bad english)...I am mounting a high availability solution for test purpose. For the moment i mount the following and runs ok, but i´ve a little problem with the logical database: 
 
Configuration 
ESX Server 2.0 with this machines: 
Windows 2003 Cluster (Enterprise Edition R2, 2 nodes) 
* NODE 1 - Oracle 10gR2 + Patch 9 + Oracle Fail Safe 3.3.4 
* NODE 2 - Oracle 10gR2 + Patch 9 + Oracle Fail Safe 3.3.4 
c:/Windows Software 
e:/Oracle Software/ (pfile -> R:/spfile) 
 
Virtual SAN 
* Datafile, Redos.. are in Virtual SAN. 
R:/ Datafiles & Archivers & dump files & spfile 
S:/ , T:/ ,U:/ -> Redos 
V:/ Undo 
 
Data Guard 
* NODE3 Physical Database 
* NODE4 Logical Database 
 
The Oracle Fail Safe and windows cluster run OK, the switchs... 
The physical database runs OK... (redo aply, switchover, failover, all ok) but the logical receives the redos ok but it has a problem when goes to apply the redo. 
 
The error is the following: 
ORA-12801: error señalizado en el servidor P004 de consultas paralelas 
ORA-06550: linea 1, columna 536: 
PLS-00103: se ha encontrado el simbolo "," cuando se esperaba uno de los siguientes:

update "SYS"."JOB$" set "LAST_DATE"=TO_DATE('11/09/07','DD/MM/RR'), 
 
This sql statement i saw in dba_logstdby_events and was joined with the error in alert log and dba_logstdby_events. 
 
I´m a bit lost with this error. I don´t understand why the logical database can´t start to apply the redos received from primary database. 
 
The database has two tables with two columns one integer and the other a varchar2(25). She hasn´t rare types of columns. 
 
Thanks a lot for any help, 
Roberto Marotta 

I recreate the logical database OK, no problem, no errors. 
 
The redo aply run ok. I have done logfile switch in primary database and they were applied in logical and standby databases. But... 
 
When I created a tablespace in primary database when i did a switch logfile in primary the changes transfers ok to standby database, but to logical NO!!!, the redo are in they path in logical ok, but when the process tried to apply, reports me the same error.

The alert.log report the same message that the dba_logstdby_events view. 
 
Any idea¿? 
 
I´m a bit frustrated. It´s the third time that recreate the logical database OK and reproduce the same error when i create a tablespace in primary database, and i haven´t got any idea because of that.

Fail Safe adding database to group gives error "FS-10006: Unable to open.."

Environment:

Fail safe logic needed for purchase order upload program

Hello all,
i am working on creating PO's by reading data from a text file. I need to implement fail safe logic in it, which is to make sure this program uploads all the records in the text file successfully. For example, i have 1000 records in my text file and while running the upload program if the program times out while creating the 500th PO or if SAP is down at that time, then we have 499 PO's created and 501 yet to be created. But if we run the same program again, we will generate duplicate PO's for 499 again. I want to avoid this kind of problem.
How do i implement this idea?
Kindly guide me on this.
Thanks.

Ok ..
Then I would suggest you use Application Log to keep the success and error messages of PO processing.
You can check trsnaction SLG0 and create your own application log object.
Then you need to use FMs BAL_LOG_* to crate and add messages to it.
This way you will have a facility to check as which of your records are converted to PO for a run.
In case SAP gets down in between , still you can find the details using Xn SLG1 and then accordingly remove the records from your file which are already converted to PO.
Thanks,
Ram

Error in Creating the Oracle Fail Safe Group during installation on MSCS

Hi All,
I am installing ECC 6 dual stack on MSCS.
I have done steps till CI installation as per installation guide.
I am gettig the following error in the step "Creating the Oracle fail safe group" while changing physical hostname into the virtual databse hostname using configtool in secure store parameter jdbc/pool/<SAPSID>Url as per the installation guide.
"Error occurred while working with configuration(scanning)
MSG:Error while connecting to the database"
I think it is not accepting the virtual hostname.
In our scenario CI is running CI node and DB instance is running on DB node.
I have followed the steps as per the installation guide.
Please let me know how to resolve this issue.
Database - Oracle 10g,OS is Windows server 2008 enterprse edition.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
1) did you stop the CI before making the modifications as stated in the installation guide?
 Yes
2) is your database currently running on the same physical cluster node as your CI?
 No.Database instance is running on DB node and CI is on CI node.
3) is your database online?
 Yes,it is up and running
Please let me know if there is anyway to resolve this issue.

Database control in a two node oracle fail safe cluster

os windows server 2003 r2
db 10.2.0.4
ofs 3.4.1
i've configured db control in the following
D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\BIN>emca -config dbcontrol db -repos recreate -cluster_name name_of_the_cluster
is this right?
next question
the -cluster flag and the -EM_NODE / -EM_SID_LIST parameters in the emca are only for rac?
with my configuration i can't login to my database over dbcontrol
Listener refused the connection with the following error: ORA-12514, TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor The Connection descriptor used by the client was: (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=node1.blah)(PORT=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=ABBA)))

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

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.

How to configure OEM for a database which is under OFS(Oracle Fail Safe).

Hi,
We have customer who is using database 11g and also using OFS(Oracle Fail Safe) for switching to other machine if there is any problem with current machine. So how to configure Agent in this scenario.
What i have done is i have installed the agent on node1 and configured to monitor the database. it is monitoring properly. no issues.
But when database started from node2, here agent will not be there. Do i need to install the agent on node2 as well. Thanks in-advance for your support.
Regards
DBA.

Hi,
You need to a script and run it on os level. Here is an example:-
emcli relocate_targets -src_agent=agentmachine1.domain:3872
-dest_agent=agentmachine2.domain:3872 -target_name=RACDB
-target_type=oracle_database -copy_from_src -force=yes
-changed_param=MachineName:agentmachine2.domain

Adding Standalone Database to Group using Fail Safe fails

Background:
Oracle: 10.2.0.4
OFS: 3.4.1
Have installed Oracle Fail Safe correctly without errors.
Ran Verify Standalone Database get this result:

39 10:00:04 The clusterwide operation completed successfully, however, the server reported some warnings.
The warnings are concerning dome files that are on the D: drive as oppose to one of the Shared Drives. I made that that the SPFILE and init.ora are on the o1B node and in the same exact Path.
I did create a Group with a Virtual Address and added the Shared Drive resources
When I run the "Add to Group" wizard, I have tried using both the SPFILE and the 'init.ora' and get the same result:

I have checked the README files and looked up the FS- Errors, but they are very general and don't give me a clue as towhy they failed.
Have been Googleing for days and found no answer yet. Are there any other logs that might shed some light on this?
Thanks and have a great day,
Andrew

Related? To me it looks like it initilaizes everything, stop the Database, but then can't startup?

Fail Safe documentation pointers incorrect

The link for the Oracle Fail Safe 3.3.1 error message file is pointing to the 2.2.1 tutorial (for both
PDF and HTML). A customer has requested that this be fixed.
The problem link is at the following URL:

Ingrid,
Thank you (and the customer) for identify this... Firstly, to get to the correct document please use the following URL's

Upgrade Oracle Database in Oracle Fail Safe configuration.

Dear All,
I usually upgrade Oracle Database (10g, 10g r2, 11g, 11g r2) in stand alone configuration without problems.
Now, I will must upgrade one database from 11g to 11g r2 in Fail Safe configuration.
Please, is there some link to read before this operation ?
Many thx.

Pl see if MOS Doc 223709.1 (How to upgrade or apply a patch to the RDBMS in an Oracle Fail Safe environment) can help

Ora Fail Safe - under cluster ctl on one node but gives FS:10413 on other

Hi,
Trying to set up a single Fail Safe (3.3.3) instance (9.2) on a set of Windows 2003 servers running MSCS.
After creating the standalone DB on the first node, I was able to get it verified and added to the cluster control (while the second server was down - had to this as the error I'm about to mention kept rolling back the changes on both nodes, otherwise). Now that the first node is configured and the FS listener service and FS DB service are created, I tried setting the second node to match the first one (viz. getting listener.ora, sqlnet.ora and even tnsnames.ora).
The "verify group" operation kept failing on creation of the Windows FS service for the DB and listener.
Found out that there was an issue with picking up the Oracle_Home when even trying to invoke sqlplus manually from the command line (though the registry entries seemed to be right and match the ones set on the first node). Eventually on adding the ORACLE_HOME variable to the list of env variables, it started picking up the OH correctly and the next "verify group" operation successfully added the WIndows FS service for the DB (OracleService{SID}) on the second node. (The first node didn't have to encounter these problems as during the standalone DB install (using DBCA), this service was created).
Next, started the Windows FS DB service (on the second node with the problem) and tried starting the DB manually (out of cluster controll) and it worked fine.
However when trying to "verify group" again, I keep getting the error FS-10413 (and the subsequent FS:10046, FS:10111 and FS:10890) while trying to add the Windows FS listener service (OracleORA_HOMETNSListenerFsl{oradb_virtual_name}).
Could really do with extra eyes (and heads) helping to get to the bottom of this. Thanks.
<<< The gist of the output from the "verify group" action is below >>>
13 18:29:18 > FS-10300: Verifying Oracle Net listener resource OracleORA_HOME1TNSListenerFsloradbl
14 18:29:19 Oracle Net listener Fsloradbl for the group is not found

Further to typing the above, read the section 7.10.8.2 in "Oracle Fail Safe Concepts and Admin guide" (http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/html/B12070_01/ofs_db.htm#sthref985) and checked the output log. Bizarrely, the output file has a few "msg not found" errors (akin to when it doesn't find the correct OH).
Wonder where this has to be set in the registry!?!
The TNS-01151 (missing listener name in listener.ora) error is also a bit odd as this is the new listener OFS is trying to create and add to the new listener.ora file. Isn't it!?!?!

Thanks for your time (reading and hopefully responding to this) and any comments or suggestions.

yes i did. i mean, the db starts corretly using the Enteprise Manager and listener.ora and tnsnames.ora are the ones created during db creation. they seem alright.
i'm trying to execute those commands from the node of the cluster where the db resides.
but... i have one big question: do i have to create the db instance on BOTH cluster nodes (both pointing to the same oradata in the shared disk) or is it enough to create my standalone db only on the nodeA and then let everything to the FailSafe management (adding the standalone db to the cluster group FailSafe creates all the services needed)???
thanks

Possible Owner Node, Fail Safe

Hello,
I'm testing Fail Safe with MS Failover Cluster.
There are three nodes in the cluster and "Oracle Service for MSCS" is Online. On each node is also installed oracle 11g and Fail Safe v3.4.2
* Successfully connected to MS Failover Cluster
* Successfully verified Cluster, clusterwide...
* Successfully created a group.
* Successfully added virtual ip to group.
* Successfully verified group, clusterwide...
* Successfully created standalone database
* Successfully verified standalone database, clusterwide...
now...when i try to add this standalone database to the group, in the second step of the wizard, there are NO possible owner nodes.
All three nodes are listed as: Not a possible owner.
where did wrong? Thanx
Saimo
