    Daniel,
    Again ... my initial response was that I was insulted by the implications: Still am.
    Perhaps you are hoping someone else will steal that copywrited material and send it to you? Is that what you are asking?I think your initial response is little bit excessive (IMO). OP didn't say that "Somebody steal the content from metalink and send it to me please". He might requesting specific note id for appropriate document which describes installation in "instant" form.
    But do you really think, for even one minute, that anyone who has invested many hundreds of hours into creating a training class is going to send you their materials for free?Somebody called "Linus" and many others invested many hundreds of hours to create OS which you are using for free (and you are recommending it in your posts)... ;-)
    What if there is some altruist which could provide the such complex paper for RAC?
    Your third post is correct and I absolutely agree with you (except last sentence).
    Salman,
    you can look to get inspired at "DBA" articles on OTN website (http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/tech_dba.html#linux) or RAC SIG site and compare it with official documentation or metalink notes. Only documentation and metalink notes are 100% assurance that your installation/configuration will be supported. And in case of doubts you still can contact Oracle support and consult planned steps/implementation.

  • 10g RAC on VMWare Workstation

    Hi Folks,
    i tried to install 10g RAC on VMWare 4.5.2 for testing.
    Hostsystem is XP, ghost system are RedHat-ES-30.
    I configured tho 2 nodes with 2 scsi adapters and 2 Network Card and a shared Disk.
    I installed ocfs 1.0.12 on both nodes, formated the disk and it seems to be fine.
    On the next step ( Installation of CRS ) the runInstaller fails after the node configuration screen with the message:
    Oracle Cluster Registry File can only be saved on a shared filesystem file or on a RAW Device.
    Any Ideas ?
    Thanks
    Martin

    Hi Laurent,
    Thanks for your reply.
    I checked that and i can't find the Processes or any think else witch is discribed in thr article !
    The Installer pops a message during the creation of the ocr file.
    Have any body tried it with RAW Devices ?
    Martin

  • 10g RAC - should I use RAW, OCFS and/or ASM ?

    I am about to install 10G RAC on RHAS3. Options for sharing disk partitions are raw, OCFS and ASM. The OCR and voting files must be raw or OCFS, I would tend to go for OCFS in this case. For the Oracle datafiles, again, I would tend to go for OCFS simply for ease of management since ASM seems to add another layer of complexity, and raw lacks flexibility. OCFS however is also new technology and may still have some stability issues. I'm not yet sure of our disk configuration, but there will be HBA cards in each machine with one or two SAN partitions, so I don't expect some of the ASM features such as mirroring etc. will be required as this will be done in the hardware. Does anyone have any recommendations or experiences(good or bad) in which way to go ?
    Philip

    We're using raw partitions for some years now, (since oracle 8i, then 9i and now 10g). It is quite flexible, but you shouldn't use physical partitions but LVM. It's very stable.
    Now on 10g we're using ASM on some sites where mirroring is needed. It works, but not so stable as raw. we discover some bugs as well.
    We've never used OCFS. I don't like it. To much limits. I belive that special utilities are needed for managing files. I don't like linux system software produced by oracle.

  • 10G RAC on AIX without ASM & HACMP.

    Hi,
    I want to install ORACLE 10G RAC on AIX but I dont want ot use ASM or HACMP/GPFC.
    Just want to install with CRS and RAW devices.Is it possible to install 10g RAC with CRS and RAW devices.
    What is the best approach for this.
    Regards
    MMU

    We're running CRS on AIX. No ASM or HACMP.
    We do have the db datafiles on GPFS. We've also got one voting disk on GPFS and two on raw devices.

    Is this a red herring or is it the reason ASM won't start? At what point should this entry have been created (ie should it already exist when ASM starts or should ASM create it)? Can I manually create the entry using crsstat.
    Many thanks
    Paul

    It all depends on what your mapping problem was and what you did to resolve it. Here are a couple of things you could try:
    -Make sure the orc.loc file on ebdb1 has the same entry as ebdb2. Also, say you are using shared raw devices for CRS: make sure your raw devices are consistent on both nodes.
    If the above does not work
    -Make sure the shared devices are consistent on both nodes and restore one of the OCR backups. I am sure at least one of the backups 4hrs/8hrs/1day/2day/1week some thing must be a worthwhile. If you do restore OCR from a backup make sure to run cluvfy before you start your CRS.
    Always a good practise to take a backup of status quo before you restore from the backups.
    It would be interesting to know what lead to your disk mapping problem in the first palce.
    Good Luck!

  • 10g RAC with linux 3 AS+ocfs

    Hi:
    Is anyone install 10g RAC on linux 3AS with ocfs successfully?
    I am having problem with CRS installation where installer ask to run root.sh. My first node finished root.sh without any problem but not second node it give me "Failure at final check of Oracle CRS stack." error. Moreover, I found "ERROR: clssnmconnect: failed, rc = 3, node samurai (1), (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=racs01-priv1)(PORT=49895))" error in ocssd2.log file. However, I can ping privet and public ip/hostname without any problem. Any input or suggestions are welcome!

    Did you ever get a responce to this?
    I'm having the very same issue, which I can not find a work around.
    Documents for the 10g install have been very few and far between, so any help would be the greatest!

  • Not able to access the 10g RAC DB

    Hi All,
    I have installed 10G RAC on WIN2K box with 2 nodes. The installation was fine. I created a database with name "test". It created 2 instances "test1 on node1" and "test2 on node2". Now if i am trying to connect to "test", it fails. but if i use "test1" i am able to connect. How does the failover come into picture when i am using the instance "test1" which is running on node1 and it(node1) goes down. I am new to these, please help me.
    Thanks in advance
    Regards
    Kavitha

    All connections should be using the failover TNS entry which should look something like this in your tnsnames.ora file:
    TEST=
    (DESCRIPTION=
    (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=test1-vip.us.oracle.com)(PORT=1521))
    (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=test2-vip.us.oracle.com)(PORT=1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA=
    (SERVICE_NAME=TEST)
    When you do a tnsping of the service, you should see the failover configuration, similar to:
    tnsping TEST
    Used TNSNAMES adapter to resolve the alias
    Attempting to contact (DESCRIPTION= (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=test1-vip.us.oracle.com)(PORT=1521)) (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=test2-vip.us.oracle.com)(PORT=1521)) (CONNECT_DATA= (SERVICE_NAME=TEST)))
    There are many different configurations for RAC failover and TAF. This is a basic example.

  • Question to Oracle about 10g RAC

    Hi:
    Does Oracle had installed 10gRAC on Redhat3.0AS either using ocfs or raw successful before the software got released?

    It is indeed successful. We've installed 10g RAC with ocfs/ASM on different storage devices such as SAN's and SCSI disk arrays .

  • Oracle-10g RAC on VMware installed on Windows-7(Host)

    Hi,
    My host OS is Windows-7. Docs. posted on this forum for RAC on VMware says: your Host OS should be Centos OS and in which you will install VMware and Client tools also. In this way u can clone another RAC2 machine.
    But I have Oracle VM Virtual Box installed on Windows-7. Another is VMware Player installed on Windows-7.
    I want to install Oracle-10g RAC on my Laptop. Please any suggestions or Docs. related to this.

    while this is a documentation of 11gR2 it gives enough information on how to setup a RAC in a VBox environment:

  • 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.
