NETCA listener configuration error for RAC database

Hi,
WE have a RAC setup on 2 nodes and now we want to change the default listener port for RAC database.
Database ver: 10.2.0.4
We now that srvctl does not work to add listener manually to CRS.
We are now using netca to create new listener on both the RAC nodes but it gives error throwing :
Problem in configuration : Node(S): hostname
Try again...
When we try to start the listener say listener_I it throws following error:
Problem in configuration :node1
Listener start to failed:Listener may already be running
CRS-0215:Could not start resource
This is urgent
any help is appreciated.
Regards,
Milan

In-place upgrade of Enterprise Manager for RAC databases is not supported

upgrading 2 node RAC from 10.2.0.1 to 10.2.0.3 on Windows 2003 64 bit. I got the following:
In-place upgrade of Enterprise Manager for RAC databases is not supported in this release
Now I cannot log in to the database control as sys with sysdba role . I get "invalid username/password" error
I can login as a dba user
I also get a java error after I log in, some thing about class not found, but then I'm in and I can do everything that I try, although I haven't tried scheduling a backup yet
Can I upgrade EM to 10.2.0.3?
If so, how?

On the patchset readme...
11.3 Upgrade of Oracle Enterprise Manager Not Supported
When you start Oracle Database Upgrade Assistant to upgrade 10.2.0.1 database to 10.2.0.3 patch set, the following error occurs:
Inplace upgrade of Enterprise Manager is not supported for RAC databases is not supported in this release
Workaround:
Ignore warning.
If you drop and recreate the EM repository?
1). emca -deconfig dbcontrol db repos drop
2). emca -config dbcontrol db -repos create
Be careful, doing this put the database on QUIESCE mode.

RMAN Backup script for RAC Database..please suggest

Hi All,
I am currently working on backup policy for RAC Database for my client.The client requirement is to backup while database is shutdown(mount state).I have made below script and could any one please suggest what further things should I need to add with below rman script.
echo "Shutdown Database";date
srvctl stop database -d PROD
srvctl status database -d PROD
echo "Database shutdown on";date
echo "Mount Database ";date
srvctl start instance -d PROD -i "PROD1" -o mount
srvctl status database -d PROD
echo "Start Full Database Backup on";date
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/rman target / nocatalog <<EOF
configure controlfile autobackup on;
configure controlfile autobackup format for device type disk to '/BACKUP/PRODBKP/%F';
run{
allocate channel c1 device type disk connect 'sys/******@node1-vip:1521/PROD';
allocate channel c2 device type disk connect 'sys/*****@node2-vip:1521/PROD';
backup format '/BACKUP/PRODBKP/PROD_df_%t_%s_%p.bak'(database);
backup format '/BACKUP/PRODBKP/archive_%t_%s_%p.bak' archivelog all;
copy current controlfile to '/BACKUP/PRODBKP/PROD.ctl';
delete noprompt obsolete;
release channel c1;
release channel c2;
exit
EOF
echo "RMAN Backup Finished on";date
echo "Shutdown Database";date
srvctl stop database -d PROD
echo "Start Database";date
srvctl start database -d PROD
srvctl status database -d PROD
Please share your experiences.
Regards

Hi,
Some tweaks for your script.
echo "Shutdown Database";date
srvctl stop database -d PROD
srvctl status database -d PROD
echo "Database shutdown on";date
echo "Mount Database ";date
srvctl start instance -d PROD -i "PROD1" -o mount1. If you database does not shutdown properly , does your script stops the execution of next step?
2. configure controlfile autobackup on;
configure controlfile autobackup format for device type disk to '/BACKUP/PRODBKP/%F';(Why you need to configure this every time) ?
It's persistent at db level one time setting (until some other script changes the settings by other dba - else remove that - set the configuration at db level once for all)

How can I have a collective AWR report for RAC database in 10gR2 and 11gR1?

Plz correct me here
awrrpt.sql takes the snapshot at the instance level and incase we have 5 instances we have to take 5 awr reports for a particular period.correct???
If above is true ,any wayout to collect a single collective AWR report for RAC database which includes information on all the instances in Oracle 10g R2 or 11gR1 ?
Thanks in advance
Gagan

I have never come across a way for this. though I can n't say it is not there.
But I guess it may not be feasible too becuase as we know the current AWR report contains data which is specific for one instance.
Various hit ratios, top events, instance effeciency reports.... what not ..
It would be really nice to see something is a new format where it lists values from each instance in a single report.. I guess such a thing Does not exiist as of now.

How Do I Configure SSL for RAC Installation.

Experts,
Requesting your inputs on configuring SSL for my RAC environment.
- Oracle DB version is 11.2.0.2
- RAC is with two nodes.
- Two nodes are : rac1.oracle.com and rac2.oracle.com
- RAC setup has SCAN feature configured. SCAN FQDN : racscan.oracle.com
- All clients talk to RAC DB using SCAN feature as shown below.
client applications -> racscan.oracle.com ---> rac1.oracle.com
---> rac2.oracle.com
- tnsnames.ora file on both RAC instances has hostname as "racscan.oracle.com" instead of their individual phyiscal host names.
How do I configure SSL for RAC:
1. Do I need to generate certificate request for individual hostnames or only for SCAN hostname ?.
2. If I generate a certificate based on SCAN hostname, how does SSL work since SCAN hostname is not a phyiscal host name ?
3. What is recommended strategy for configuring SSL for RAC environment ?
Thanks

The documentation on the creation of Oracle Wallets is not specific to RAC, and the RAC SCAN instructions for TCPS are very vague on the specific requirements for the certificates required in the wallets for proper operation. I too am struggling to get it to work. Does anyone have a more technical guide to the specific configuration of the certificates needed and what specific configuration file changes need to be made?
Also, the self signed documentation is getting REALLY old. Oracle, please stop giving instructions that demonstrate irresponsibility and show the proper method of certificate requesting and importing to wallets.

After adding a logical standby database through Grid Control for a RAC database, I noticed sometime later the Data Guard configuration disappeared from Grid Control. Not sure why but it is gone. I did notice that something went wrong with the standby creation but i did not get much feedback from Grid Control. The last thing I did was to view the configuration, see output below.

Perform a live backup of the primary database
Specify backup directory for staging area
Specify standby database name and Oracle home location
Specify file location staging area on standby node
At the end am presented with a review of the selected options and then the standby database is created
Has any body come across a similar issue?
Thanks,

Any resolution on this?
I just created a Logical Standby database and I'm getting the same warning (WARNING: No credentials available for target ...) when I do a 'Verify Configuration' from the Data Guard page.
Everything else seems to be working fine. Logs are being applied, etc.
I can't figure out what credentials its looking for.

ODI Connection for RAC database

Hi,
I am trying to create master repository in ODI. We have RAC database and I want to give scan ip for making connection in URL field.
I started repcreate.sh script to open "Master Repository Creation Wizard" and in URL text field I tried to connect by giving single instance detail and its connecting fine.
But when I tried to give scan ip its throwing error message:

Had the same thing before (in a Hurry) so I created it against one of the Rac Nodes, then edited my Topology connections (Data servers , Work Repos connections, User login profiles) to use the RAC connection and it was fine.
It might be something to do with the RCU not liking RAC conns.
Hope this helps,

DBA panel not working correctly for RAC databases

I hope this is the correct forum for this stuff... I learned that there is a DBA panel in SQL Developer - which is a great idea. But then, trying it on a RAC database, the output is quite confusing. For example, the init parameters are desplayed twice, or better: once for every instance. But a display column to identify the instance is missing. I assume that the query goes to gv$parameter but doesn't make use of the INST_ID column. Or am I lacking some configuration trick...?

This probably has nothing to do with your problem but something is screwed up in the way CSCC handles Configurator panels.
Converted a panel made for CS6 using Configurator4. Got it loaded into CC. It was not quite right so I made some minor changes. The changes never showed up in CC. Deleted the original folder under Panels, changed the name of the panel and reinstalled. Whoa! The original deleted panel was the only one that showed up under Extensions not the new one. This in spite of the fact that that folder no longer existied.
I have tried all sorts of maneauvers but the fact is that the original panel is the only one that PS recognizes even though it does not exist on the drive. It is locked into PS and nothing I have done will change it.

Arivelog mode configuration proble in RAC database

Hi,
I'm trying to configure RAC database in archivelog mode but when try to do so get the following error, during the database startup in mount state
LRM-00109: could not open parameter file '/u01/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1/dbs/initorcl.ora'
This error shows that the system could not find the initorcl.ora and really it does not exist. But the system at this stage is single
instance as I chenged the value of cluster_database=false before shutdown and then start.
when I enter the command startup mount it give me this error. What should I do to avoid it. Should I make a pfile of this from spfile in cluster mode
and then put this pfile in the desired path to start the single instance or any other thing should I tried.
Regards,
Abbasi

Perform the following steps to relocate the SPFILE from the local file system to an ASM disk group.
    * Create a text-based initialization parameter file from the current binary SPFILE located on the local file system:
      SQL> CREATE PFILE='$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/initTESTDB.ora'
        2 FROM SPFILE='$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/spfileTESTDB.ora';
      File created.
    * Create new SPFILE in an ASM disk group:
      SQL> CREATE SPFILE='+TESTDB_DATA1/TESTDB/spfileTESTDB.ora'
        2 FROM PFILE='$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/initTESTDB.ora';
      File created.
    * Shutdown the Oracle database:
      SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE
      Database closed.
      Database dismounted.
      ORACLE instance shut down.
    * Update the text-based init<SID>.ora file with the new location of the SPFILE in ASM:
      $ echo "SPFILE='+TESTDB_DATA1/TESTDB/spfileTESTDB.ora'" > $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/initTESTDB.ora
    * Remove (actually rename) the old SPFILE on the local file system so that the new text-based init<SID>.ora will be used:
      $ mv $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/spfileTESTDB.ora $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/BACKUP_ASM.spfileTESTDB.ora
    * Open the Oracle database using the new SPFILE:

RMAN configuration in ORACLE RAC database

Hi there,
We are using RMAN backup strategy for taking backups from one node(eg.node1).Database is RAC database, version 9.2.3. and OS is Solaris 5.10.
this is the configuration which we use, as follows:
Connecting to Prod.Database using catalog database.
rman catalog=rman/rman@CATDB target=sys/oracle@PRODDB(node 2).
RMAN> show all;
RMAN configuration parameters are:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO REDUNDANCY 30;
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION ON;
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK; # default
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO '/rmanback/_%F';
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK PARALLELISM 5;
CONFIGURE DATAFILE BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT '/rmanback/CMWPROD_%s.bak';
CONFIGURE CHANNEL 2 DEVICE TYPE DISK CONNECT 'SYS/oracle@PRODDB(node2)';
CONFIGURE MAXSETSIZE TO 7 G;
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO '/oracle/9.2.3/dbs/snapcf_CMWPROD1.f';
As the above config shows RMAN is connecting to PROD DB (node 2). But we need to take backups (datafiles and as well as archive logs) from two nodes (i.e from node 1 and as well as node 2).
Is there any possibility for taking backups from two nodes?
Thanks,
Balu.

You will need to setup an NFS share such that both nodes can access each other's archived redo logs area. You also need to ensure your LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n parameter settings are properly set. Once setup correctly, either node will be able to run the backup and include each other's archived redo log files. Since this is RAC, the data files are shared by design and either node can already backup these files.
Multiple channels would allow 'simultaneous' backup of the archived redo logs.
I would highly recommend using a CFS (single shared file system where all nodes store their archived redo logs distinguished by thread) to store the archived redo logs, this reduces administration and configuration especially when you get ready to scale.
Hope this helps.

Urgent help needed in configuring X1151A for RAC cluster

for RAC requirements I have to configure this card to use the interface name of ce1 but I have tried changing slots and puting /etc/hostname.ce1 file out there but it fails .. it always comes up as ce0.
my question is : How can I cofigure this card to come up as ce1 ? in the other box I had to do nothing .. i just placed the /etc/hostname.ce1 file with hostname and it works perfect.
can you please email me a copy of your response at [email protected] ?
thanks
Sami

Look for "ce" instances in the /etc/path_to_inst file. You'll need to change the lines so that the hardware path you want is "1".
Keep a backup and write down the pathname. You can give that path to a 'boot -a' prompt if anything bad happens.

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:-
