Install a grid infrastructure for a cluster for single node Windows Server

Hello,
Can you suggest me how to install a Oracle Single Node RAC 11g on a Windows Server 2008 x64 bits? It's for testing purposes and I don't need two nodes. I know that Linux is better, but my company only uses Windows servers. Our former consultant was able to do it, but didn't tell us how to and that server was lost.
I know that we have to install first Grid Infrastructure. Running the "Oracle Grid Infrastructure" installer, I could successfully install a "Grid Infrastructure for a Standalone Server". But that grid is not for a RAC database. When trying to install the Database software, it allowed to me to only install "Single instance database", not "Real Application Cluster database installation".
Running the "Oracle Grid Infrastructure" installer, I tried to select option:
"Install and Configure Grid Infrastructure for a Cluster" -> Typical Installation:
SCAN Name: SRVORAC-cluster
Validating SCAN information
INS-40922 Invalid SCAN Name - unresolvable to IP address.
Is it possible to install a grid infrastructure for a cluster for a single-node or one-node Windows Server ?

HI,
You probably have misconception about Single node RAC. This feature does not need that you have only one physical machine in a RAC, it actually means that in a RAC environment (2 or more nodes), you can run your database on only one node(single instance) and then later you can move this single instance to any other node of the RAC (so that you can do some patching on this node making your database available all the time). This also has some other benefits, see bellow.

  • I cannot find Oracle Grid Infrastructure Patch Set 2 for windows x64

    So maybe i'm stupid, but i've searched metalink every way i can think of to find the patches mentioned in the following preinstall instructions for 11.2.0.2 for windows
    "To upgrade Oracle Grid Infrastructure release 11.2.0.1 to Oracle Grid Infrastructure release 11.2.0.2, you must first do at least one of the following:
    * Patch the Oracle Grid Infrastructure release 11.2.0.1 home with the patch 9413827 and patch 9706490.
    * Install Oracle Grid Infrastructure Patch Set 1 (GI PSU1) or Oracle Grid Infrastructure Patch Set 2 (GI PSU2)."
    I've searched in Patches and Updates and https://updates.oracle.com.
    I've got a 2 node 11gR2 (11.2.0.1) RAC on Windows 2k8 that i want to patch to 11.2.0.2 before implementing as production. I can find all the Unix flavored patches, but not the Windows Patch.
    Feel free to make fun of me for using Windoze or not knowing how to use metalink, whatever you like, as long as you include a url to the Patch I'm looking for.
    thanks
    John

    The first thing that i tried was the out-of-place upgrade, which failed 3/4 of the way through. This left me with a circumstance where i couldn't use srvctl to administer my RAC because of version mismatched files. The RAC appeared to be up but administering it was impossible no matter what home i set. I deinstalled 11.2.0.2 grid and the 2nd node of my RAC was broken and couldn't see the ASM instance at all. i actually had to modify the windows registry to get the 2nd node to behave properly.
    That's when i read more carefully the installation instructions for the upgrade and came across the text i included.
    "To upgrade Oracle Grid Infrastructure release 11.2.0.1 to Oracle Grid Infrastructure release 11.2.0.2, you must first do at least one of the following:
    Patch the Oracle Grid Infrastructure release 11.2.0.1 home with the patch 9413827 and patch 9706490.
    Install Oracle Grid Infrastructure Patch Set 1 (GI PSU1) or Oracle Grid Infrastructure Patch Set 2 (GI PSU2).
    Adding nodes to a cluster during a rolling upgrade is not supported.#
    Oracle Clusterware and Oracle ASM upgrades are always out-of-place upgrades. With Oracle Grid Infrastructure 11g release 2 (11.2), you cannot perform an in-place upgrade of Oracle Clusterware and Oracle ASM to existing homes."
    This mentions both the out-of-place upgrade and the need for the intermediate patches to be installed first. I'm not sure what to believe at this point. I read the above instructions as saying the intermediate patches need to be installed BEFORE the out-of-place upgrade would be successful, but i can't say that i understand why that would be the case.
    Has someone done a successful upgrade on Windows from 11.2.0.1 directly to 11.2.0.2?
    I appreciate y'all's help.
    thanks,

    Hi,
    One of the recommended solution for this issue by Oracle.
    Have the DISPLAY variable set when running root.sh. This is the th recommendation by oracle to a SR opened by another vendor for this issue.

    Hi,
    it looks like the VIPs you used are already taken in your network or the name resolution on the VIP name does not return the correct IP address for the VIP, hence the problems.

  • Install Oracle Grid Infrastructure 11g Release 2 - Yes or No???

    Hello,
    We are setting up a new OEM Grid 12c system on Linux x86-64. We want to use it to manage several stand-alone, non-RAC, non-ASM database machines. The docs are unclear - do we have to install Oracle Grid Infrastructure 11g Release 2 on any of the database machines, including the machine that will support the OEM repository database, or not? Again, no plans to run Oracle Restart or Oracle ASM or Oracle RAC on that machine or any others.
    The docs are not clear and we need a definitive answer.
    Thank you, TL

    Hello, OTN gurus.
    Thanks for your attention to my original post. However, I am asking about a specific installation package called "Oracle Grid Infrastructure", which is separate from OEM Grid 12c and Oracle Database, and is supposed to be installed in its own home directory before the Oracle database software is installed in its oracle_home. "Oracle Grid Infrastructure" is also supposed to be installed in a different oracle_home from the OEM 12c Agent and a different oracle_home from Oracle Database, under specific conditions.
    The docs say that you need Oracle Grid Infrastructure installed first in order to implement Oracle Restart and Oracle ASM for the Database. Other docs say you also need it for OEM Grid software. The docs are confusing on this point. I do not need Oracle Restart or Oracle ASM. I want to avoid installing this separate product, called Oracle Grid Infrastructure if I can. Does anyone know if a simple environment of Oracle Database 11gR2 (11.2.0.3), managed by OEM 12c OMS and Agents, requires "Oracle Grid Infrastructure"?
    Thanks, TL

  • Install of grid infrastructure @ win 2008 server

    hello!
    i'm a newbie on oracle rac/grid and so i think there will be an easy answer to my question. i want to install oracle grid infrastructure on windows 2008 (r2) with asm on a san storage.
    i worked through a lot of tutorials, but till now i didn't manage to find the san in the "create ASM disk group" dialog (installation of grid infrastructure). i think i have to change the "discovery path", but i don't know how.
    which additional information is needed so that someone can help me?
    thx in advance!
    best regards,

    sorry, but i overlooked that i have to use asmtool.exe to stamp the disks for oracle asm!

  • Install oracle10g AS 904 infrastructure and middle tiers on single node??

    Hi
    I will install oracle10g AS 904 infrastructure and middle tiers on single node.
    I have some question.
    1.install infrastructure and middle tiers must have different home_dir , It is mean use one user (EX:oracle) or two users (EX: infra and mid ) install ?
    2. If use one user install , How to edit the user profile ?
    3. If it install complete , Which em console do I start (infra or middle)??
    4. Ple give the clear steps to install Infrastructure and Portal and wireless
    on single host for AIX5L.
    thank

    Hi Kevin,
    1. Create two seprate Oracle homes. Use the same user to install both.
    2. Are you refering to changing ORACLE_HOME, etc?
    3. Both. To save memory you can shut them down when you don't need them.
    4. Use the quick installation guide. You can find it under documentation here on OTN.

  • Unable to install Client Tools for Sybase ASE 15.7 on Windows Server 2012 64-Bit

    Hello Folks,
    I just downloaded the client tools package from https://support.sap.com/swdc --> Installation and Upgrades --> A-Z list --> SAP ADAPTIVE SERVER ENTERPRISE --> SYBASE ASE 15.7 --> Installation --> Microsoft Windows --> 51044415.zip
    I'm trying to install the client tools for a newly provisioned Windows 2012 64-Bit machine. After unzipping the folder and running autorun, the installation does not proceed. When I go to pcclient64 and run either setup.exe or setupConsole.exe, I get the error "This Application has Unexpectedly Quit, Invocation of this Java Application has caused an InvocationTargetException. This application will now exit. (LAX)". I stumbled across various posts on the forum, and it appears that the installer is not certified for Windows Server 2012. I tried using the compatibility mode for Windows 7, and it proceeds further and launches the SAP GUI; however, it closes afterwards.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    51044415 is a PC-Client 15.7 refresh.
    You are using a version that was not certified with Windows 2012. Get the most current version PC-Client 15.7 SP130 or SDK 15.7 SP130 or SP132.
    If your looking for PC-Client5.7 SP130 look for EBF23439
    We didn't get certified with Windows 2012 until SDK 15.7 ESD#6 even with that I reported a few minor issues.
    You need the following on the machine before the installation.
    Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x64)
    Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86) (or dsedit and ocscfg will not work)

    While Grid Infrastructure installation (for a Cluster option), things go very smooth until I run "root.sh" on node# 2. orainstRoot.sh ran OK on both. "root.sh" run OK on node# 1 and ends with:
    Checking swap space: must be greater than 500 MB.   Actual 1967 MB    Passed
    The inventory pointer is located at /etc/oraInst.loc
    The inventory is located at /u01/app/oraInventory
    *'UpdateNodeList' was successful.*
    *[root@rac1 ~]#*
    "root.sh" fails on rac2 (2nd node) with following error:
    CRS-2672: Attempting to start 'ora.evmd' on 'rac2'
    CRS-2676: Start of 'ora.evmd' on 'rac2' succeeded
    Timed out waiting for the CRS stack to start.
    *[root@rac2 ~]#*
    I know this info may not be enough to figure out what the problem may be. Please let me know what should I look for to find the issue and fix it. Its been like almost two weeks now :-(

  • Which version of Java for SAP NetWeaver 7.02 in Windows Server 2008

    Hi ,
         I want to install SAP NetWeaver 7.02 (not SP6) in Windows Server 2008 R2 x64, but I don't know which version of Java I should install first, I have downloaded the following four types of Java:
    j2eesdk-1_4_02_2005Q1
    j2sdk-1_4_2_09_windows_i586
    j2re-1_4_2_19-windows-i586-p
    j2sdk-1_4_2_19-windows-i586-p
        But, I don't know which type I should choose to install first.
        Thanks for help!

    Hi Cathal,
        Thanks for your help!
        But the document of SAP installation says:
    If you start sapinst the first time, you will be logged off your operating system and afterwards prompted for the installation directory of JRE 1.4.latest or 1.5.0_22 (tested).
    Do not use 1.6.x! The installation will start, but not finish.
    JRE 1.4.latest or 1.5.0_22 (tested): it means I should install j2re-1_4_2_19-windows-i586-p, is it right?

  • Best practices for setting up virtual servers on Windows Server 2012 R2

    I am creating a Web server from scratch with Windows Server 2012 R2. I expect to have a host server, and then 3 virtual servers...one that runs all of the web apps as a web server, another as a Database Server, and then on for session state.  I
    expect to use Windows Server 2012 R2 for the Web Server and Database Server, but Windows 7 for the session state.
    I have an SATA2 Intel SROMBSASMR RAID card with battery back up that I am attaching a small SSD drive that I expect to use for the session state, and an IBM Server RAID M1015 SATA3 card that I am running Intel 520 Series SSD's that I expect to
    use for Web server and Database server.
    I have some questions. I am considering using the internal USB with a flash drive to boot the Host off of, and then using two small SSD's in a Raid 0 for the Web server (theory being that if something goes wrong, session state is on a different drive), and
    then 2 more for the Database server in a RAID 1 configuration.
    please feel free to poke holes in this and tell me of a better way to do it.
    I am assuming that having the host running on a slow USB drive that is internal has no effect on the virtual servers after it is booted up, and the virtual servers are booted up?

    There are two issues about RAID0:
    1) It's not as fast as people think. So with a general purpose file system like NTFS or ReFS (choice for Windows is limited) you're not going to have any great benefits as there are very low chances whole RAID stripe would be updated @ the same time (I/Os
    need to touch all SSDs in a set so 256KB+ in a real life). Web server workload is quite far away from sequential reads or writes so RAID0 is not going to shine here. Log-structures file system (or at least some FS with logging capabilities, think about ZFS
    and ZIL enabled) *will* benefit from SSDs in RAID0 properly assigned. 
    2) RAID0 is dangerous. One lost SSD would render whole RAID set useless. So unless you build a network RAID1-over-RAID0 (mirror RAID sets between multiple hosts with a virtual SAN like or synchronous replication solutions) - you'll be sitting on a time bomb.
    Not good :)
    StarWind VSAN [Virtual SAN] clusters Hyper-V without SAS, Fibre Channel, SMB 3.0 or iSCSI, uses Ethernet to mirror internally mounted SATA disks between hosts.
