DO I need SFRAC for Oracle 10g RAC on Sun Solaris

My platform is SUN Solaris 10 64 bit on v490 server. On the backend side, we are using EMC CX500 storage. We will use Veritas File system and Veritas CFS.
I would like to ask, Do I must need SFRAC to configure Oracle 10g RAC or Can I just use only Oracle CRS. I do not want to use ASM.
Please advise
Thanks,
Sam..

The VCFS usually requires a Veritas Cluster, thus you would have to use the product combination that is bundled as SFRAC as mentioned before. Metalink in addition says:
10 10gR2 64-bit Veritas Storage Foundation for Oracle RAC 5.0 Certified
There is one exception to this rule: Linux.
Veritas and Oracle support a standalone version of the Veritas Cluster Files System (and only this component) on Linux. This does not hold true for Solaris.
Concluding, if you want to use the VCFS you would need to get a VCS, which then basically means using SFRAC.
However, in this case, as mentioned before, you would not need ASM.

RAW disks for Oracle 10R2 RAC NO SUN CLUSTER

Yes you read it correctly....no Sun cluster. Then why am I on the Forum right? Well we have one Sun Cluster and another that is RAC only for testing. Between Oracle and Sun, neither accept any fault for problems with their perfectly honed products. Currently, I have multipathed fiber hba's to a Storedge 3510, and I've tried to get Oracle to use a raw lun for the ocr and voting disks. It doesn't see the disk. I've made sure they are stamped for oracle:dba, and tried oracle:oinstall. When presenting /dev/rdsk/C7t<long number>d0s6 for the ocr, I get a "can not find disk path." Does Oracle raw mean SVM raw? Should I create metadisks?

"Between Oracle and Sun, neither accept any fault for problems with their perfectly honed products"...more specific:
Not that the word "fault" is characterization of any liability, but a technical characterization of acting like a responsible stakeholder when you sell your product to a corporation. I've been working on the same project for a year, as an engineer. Not withstanding a huge expanse of management issues over the project, when technical gray areas have been reached, whereas our team has tried to get information to solve the issue. The area has become a big bouncing hot potato. Specifically, when Oracle has a problem reading a storage device, according to Oracle, that is a Sun issue. According to Sun, they didn't certify the software on that piece of equipment, so go talk to Oracle. In the sun cluster arena, if starting the database creates a node eviction from the cluster, good luck getting any specific team to say, that's our problem. Sun will say that Oracle writes crappy cluster verify scripts, and Oracle will say that Sun has not properly certified the device for use with their product. Man, I've seen it. The first time I said O.K. how do we avoid this in the future, the second time I said how did I let this happen again, and after more issues, money spent, hours lost, and customers, pissed --do the math. I've even went as far as say, find me a plug and play production model for this specific environment, but good luck getting two companies to sign the specs for it...neither wants to stamp their name on the product due to the liability. Yes your right, I should beat the account team, but as an engineer, man that's not my area, and I have other problems that I was hired to deal with. I could go on. What really is a slap in face is no one wants to work on these projects, if given the choice with doing a Windows deployment, because they can pop out mind bending amounts of builds why we plop along figuring out why clusterware doesn't like slice 6 of a /device/scsi_vhci/ . Try finding good documentation on that. ~You can deploy faster, but you can't pay more!

Install Oracle 10g on Windows 2003 Server cluster (MSCS)

Hi all
How do I install Oracle 10g on Windows 2000 cluster (MSCS installed)?
I have a 2-nodes Microsoft windows 2003 server cluster and I want to install Oracle 10g,
Do I folloow this order:
1. Install the software on both without the database
2. Create the database from the first node
in this case, The second node can see the database as it is available?,
and what about the IP adresses?
If you can point me to some documentation, or help in any way, I would appreciate it.
Thanks for any help.

Read here...
http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/A96685_01/intro.htm
>>
Oracle Fail Safe comprises multiple components: Oracle Fail Safe Manager, Oracle Services for MSCS, and server components specific to Oracle Fail Safe.
>>
So I don't know how you can achieve this without Fail Safe.
There might be other link which I cannot find right now.

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.

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

Oracle 10g RAC

Hi All,
I am a research student currently struggling to install Oracle 10g RAC on Windows OS.What i understand about a Oracle RAC database system is that it involves a configuration of multiple hosts or servers joined together with a clustering software and accessing the shared disk structures.What i also understand is that i need a CRS provided by Oracle for a Windows or Linux based RAC installation.
What i don't understand is for a Two node RAC system do i need a Third machine which has the shared storage device.If yes do i have to install a copy of Oracle 10g Enterprise Edition and CRS on the shared storage device moreover do i need to install a copy of Oracle 10g Enterprise edition on each of the nodes or just the clusterware is enough.

Hi Salil
No, you do not need a third machine. You can even setup RAC as a single node on one machine! What you do need is to have some sort of cluster aware file system. Try looking at OCFS on Windows in your case.
If you are interested in a Linux example please have a look at the examples at http://ocpdba.net/oracle9i_rac/cheaprac.html and http://ocpdba.net/oracle10g_rac for an OCFS implementation I am working on.

Hi all,
I have a question about Oracle RAC and network interface.
We're using Oracle 10gR2 RAC with two nodes on Linux Red Hat.
Let's assume that the public network interface goes down.
I would like to know what happens with existing connections
on node with network interface with problems.
Are connections frozen, actives?
Can the users continue to use theses existing connections using the another node of RAC?If the interface is down? what do you think? All connections to this node will die. How does your application handle fail-over, does it attempt to reconnect or just have a complete application failure?
You should spend some time in a test lab where you can test this stuff for yourself. Read the documentation and there are tons of sites out there that purport to have all of your RAC/TAF/FAN/FAF questions. - I would read and trust the documentation first.

I know that the listener goes down and any other connections is allowed.
Thank you very much!!!!

You know its not certified?
My first thought when I read the subject of this thread, and before reading what you posted, is that you've either done no research on RAC or didn't understand what you've read.
You can create a RAC cluster using any operating system certified by Oracle.
But the operating system is the least important part of creating a cluster. The questions you need to be able to address are:
1. What is your solution to created shared storage?
2. What is your solution to create the cache fusion interconnect and VIPs?
If you don't have an answer to these questions you can not build a RAC cluster.

Those errors remind me on errors I encountered when I was trying to do installation that was not certified,
so try to check if installation you are doing is actually supported.

How can i create/install oracle 10 rac on my single windows machine

can anyone help me to step by step install oracle 10g rac(rac environment) on my single window machine.
if its not possible then y ?
thxs

Vmware is available for both Windows & Linux.
Secondly you have to decide whether you want the guest OS (OS on which you would configure RAC) to be Windows or Linux ?
And before everything, check your PC configuration. As Tim mentions in those articles, to run this setup, you need lots of RAM n power.
Perhaps 4 GB of RAM and Core 2 Duo 2 Ghz + processor. If you are not having an appropriate configuration, it may not even run properly or your might hit memory dump errors on host OS.

Oracle 11gR2 RAC with Sun clsuter 3.3 clsetup not showing ASMDiskGroup RS

Hello,
I am installing Oracle 11gR2 RAC on Solaris cluster 3.3 with hardware RAID and ASM
I was able to register rac-famework-rg and crs-framework-rg.
Oracle RAC is up and running (confirmed from crs_stat -t -v)
However, while creating option 5. Automatic Storage Management (ASM) on clsetup, I was getting ERROR: ASM is either not installed or the installation is invalid!
I have created the asm-inst-rg with resource asm-inst-rs and asm-dg-rg with resources asm-dg-fra, asm-dg-data and asm-dg-crs using CLI. Please find the complete clrg and clrs status output below:

Once I reach clsetup option 6: Resources for Oracle Real Application Clusters Database Instances, I was able to select cluster db name, oracle home, SID for both nodes, and it listed the asm-inst-rg and asm-inst-rs for selection of "Specify Oracle ASM Instance Resource".
The problem is the the next selection which is "Specify Oracle ASM Disk Group Resources" which does NOT list any asm-dg-rg or asm-dg-fra or anything, instead, it throws error "No existing disk-group resources available for selection. Run ASM subwizard create new resource(s) and come back to this panel for the selection."
Kindly guide me to create Resources for Oracle Real Application Clusters Database Instances either in CLI or clsetup

Solaris Cluster 3.3 u1 solved the issue.
The problem right now I am facing is IPMP on the public interface.
When I remove the cable on the bge0, the ip on bge0 and the SCAN IP's are plumbed to bge1 which is in sc_ipmp0, but NOT the virtual IP!!! and the listeners on both nodes go offiline!!!
any inputs on the configuration will be highly appreciated..

Oracle 9i RAC on Sun Solaris 5.10/64 bit version.Is that supported ?

I want to install Oracle 9i RAC on Sun Solaris 10 64 bit. Is that officially supported ?
I dont this combination on metalink certify matrix

I know we dont get support from oracle.But, you initially mentioned that you couldn't find the required information on metalink, therefore I provided that information, which I thought you were looking for.
Is anybody still using this combination ? Does it work ? yes, we are using it and it has been working fine for over 4 years...of course we patched it to the latest - 9.2.0.8 to be on the supported release/patch.
