Oracle 11GR2 rac installation in vmware

Hi all experts,
I am installing RAC 11GR2 in VMWARE on OEL 6.3. Everything went smooth but when i tried to configure ASM , i get below messages.
[oracle@RAC1 ~]$ /etc/init.d/oracleasm configure
-bash: /etc/init.d/oracleasm: No such file or directory
I would appreciate if some one can help me out with this.

You have not installed the required RPMs, in order to configure ASM. You can find them below. You can follow this step by step guide on how to configure ASM Eriglen Gani's Blog: Step By Step: Configuring Automatic Storage Management (ASM) on Standalone Server with Oracle Enter…

SCAN Name issue in Oracle 11gR2 RAC Installation

Hi,
I am trying to install Oracle 11gR2 RAC on VM ware and I got the INS-40922 (Invalid SCAN name). Do I need to create the SCAN name prior to the installation?
I have public,private, and VIP's. I am not sure how I create this SCAN Name. Please share your thoughts
Thanks

During installation of grid infrastructure SCAN will be automatically created. If you are using DNS then put the scan name and scan ip addresses entries in DNS . If you are not using dns/gns then put scanname and scan ipadress hosts file on each node in the cluster. Before installation, you should not be able to ping scan ipadresses.

Oracle 11gR2 RAC installation with DNS

Dear Guru's,
I want to configure RAC on two node cluster with DNS(For SCAN) in my testing server.
O.S: RHEL5.4(64 bit)
Oracle Version: 11gR2(11.2.0.2)
Note: Am creating nodes in VMware ESXi server.
Just I want to know whether DNS should be configure in any one of those NODES or in separate machine.
Bala :)

Hi Bala,
I want to configure my Database with & without DNS. (Will try both installation in different servers)I think, you have already received a link on very good article about Oracle RAC installation without DNS and DHCP (I mean Jeffrey Hunter's article).
There is one more about Oracle RAC installation with DNS and DHCP (http://gjilevski.com/2011/10/05/build-two-node-oracle-rac-11gr2-11-2-0-3-with-gns-dns-dhcp-and-haip/).
And want to know how it forwards the client connection if a node fails.. Can anyone update the URL for this..There are a lot of information about it:
- http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/features/oci/taf-10-133239.pdf

11gr2 rac installation on vmware runinstaller not able to visible all nodes

Hello,
Recently I have installed two nodes 11gr2 rac on vmware workstation 6 with OEL 5.4. CRS installation work fine. But after that when I do olsnodes, it's shows only one node. Also, when I try to install oracle database binary, in node selection tab, it's shows only respective nodes and not shows all nodes.

Installation of 11gr2 Grid was successfull or not?
Try to check the status of High Availability service daemon by typing the following command:
./crsctl check cluster. (on all nodes)
The output should look like this:
CRS-4537: Cluster Ready Services is online
CRS-4529: Cluster Synchronization Services is online
CRS-4533: Event Manager is online

Oracle 11gr2 RAC installation

Hi Gurus,
In new project we have proposed to have 2 nodes single site RAC database Oracle 11gR2 64 Bit . We are going to have OEL 5.4 64 Bit Linux as OS and IBM as machine .
We are migrating standalone 10g R2 database to 11r2 Rac and from HP-UX to OEL Linux . We are migrating from different datacenter .
What would be the pfile configuration (i mean memory size doubles ) in RAC ?
We are going to use IBM storage . Need light on followings . Pls help me out
1>Requirements for installation
2>Grid installation requirements
3>ASM instance is physical database instance or just service ?
4>Any oracle document for installation of 11gR2 Grid and RAC?
If you provide me authorized links of RAC installation that would be better .
Thanks & Regards

Oracle 11gR2 RAC Installation - ASM Disks - Need advice on configurations

Hi Guys
How many disks are needed for Voting, Data, Log and Failover. Each should be in a seperate group or it can be in a single group of disk. Please advice. Thanks.

Hi Friend,
Option 1 :
If Oracle Clusterware is used for implementing normal redundancy. We require the following for failover purpose also.
1. Two OCR files - 280 MB each
2. Three Voting Disks - 280 MB each
Total - 1.4 GB approx
Option 2 :
Oracle recommends that the disk used for the file system be on a RAID. When you use external redundancy the minimum requirement is One OCR and One Voting Disk with 280 MB each.
Choices :
1. External Redundancy - > Minimum No Of Disks (1) - > One OCR (280 MB) and One Voting Disk (280 MB) -> 580 MB
2. Normal Redundancy - > Minimum No Of Disks (3) - > Two OCR (560 MB) and Three Voting Disk (840 MB) -> 1.4 GB
3. High Redundancy - > Minimum No Of Disks (5) - > Three OCR (840 MB) and Five Voting Disk (1.4 GB) -> 2.3 GB
So, Choose based on redundancy...
Hope it helps..
Note : Use ASM for storing above files..
Thanks

Oracle rac installation in vmware workstation?

iam very eager to learn the oracle rac, for that in my pc i created the 2 virtual machines in vmware workstation and installed redhat linux AS3.0 o.s.
i need a steps to install the oracle 9i rac in these vmware enviornment....

See my articles at http://www.dbasupport.com

Oracle 11gR2 RAC: Running the script root.sh problem

Folks,
Hello. I am installing Oracle 11gR2 RAC using 2 Virtual Machines (rac1 and rac2 whose OS are Oracle Linux 5.6) in VMPlayer and according to the tutorial
http://appsdbaworkshop.blogspot.com/2011/10/11gr2-rac-on-linux-56-using-vmware.html
I have been installing Grid Infrastructure using runInstaller from step 1 to step 9 of 10 in both VM rac1 and rac2.
Now, I am running the script root.sh in VM rac1 and rac2 as below:
[root@rac1 /]# /u01/app/grid/root.sh
Output:
CRS-4123: ohasd is starting
FATAL: Module oracleoks not found
FATAL: Module oracleadvm not found
FATAL: Module oracleacfs not found
ACFS-9121: Failed to detect /dev/asm/.asm_ctl_spec
ACFS-9310: ADVM/ACFS installation failed.
ACFS-9311: not all components were detected after installation
'UpdateNodeList' was successful.
[root@rac1 /]#
[root@rac2 /]# /u01/app/grid/root.sh
Output:
CRS-4123: ohasd is starting
FATAL: Module oracleoks not found
FATAL: Module oracleadvm not found
FATAL: Module oracleacfs not found
ACFS-9121: Failed to detect /dev/asm/.asm_ctl_spec
ACFS-9310: ADVM/ACFS installation failed.
ACFS-9311: not all components were detected after installation
Start of resource "ora.asm_init" failed.
Failed to start ASM.
Failed to start Oracle Clusterware Stack.
[root@rac2 /]#
As we see the output above, rac1 and rac2 get the same problems. in addition, rac2 fails to start ASM and Clusterware stack. Thus, I have 2 questions:
First, the common problem for rac1 and rac2 :
1)Module "oracleoks, oracleadvm, oracleacfs" not found
2)/dev/asm/.asm_ctl_spec not detected
3)ADVM/ACFS installation failed
Do the above 3 factors affect Grid and DataBase Installation later ? If yes, how to solve these problems ?
Second, how to start ASM and Clusterware stack in rac2 ?
Thanks.

you have 2 options:
1. OEL 5.6 comes with 2 kernels, the original Red Hat, and Oracle UEK, you can choose not to use UEK
or the one i would recommend:
2. Upgrade Grid Infrastructure,
*11.2.0.3.1* (patch 13348650, released about a 1 month ago) supports ACFS on UEK (starting with 2.6.32.200 IIRC)

Install Oracle 11gR2 RAC : Cannot remove directory bootstrap under /tmp

Folks,
Hello. I am installing Oracle 11gR2 RAC using 2 Virtual Machines (rac1 and rac2 whose OS are Oracle Linux 5.6) in VMPlayer and according to the tutorial
http://appsdbaworkshop.blogspot.com/2011/10/11gr2-rac-on-linux-56-using-vmware.html
I am installing Grid infrastructure. I am on step 7 of 10 (verify Grid installation enviroment) and get this error:
"Free Space: Rac2: /tmp
Cause: Could not determine mount point for location specified.
Action: Ensure location specified is available.
Expected value: n/a
Actual value: n/a "
In order to fix the above error, I run "cluster verification utility" according to
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E14072_01/rac.112/e10717/cvu.htm I run the following command:
[ora11g@rac1 \]$ /home_grid/runcluvfy.sh stage -pre crsinst -n rac1,rac2 -verbose
Output:
/bin/rm: cannot remove directory '/tmp/bootstrap': Operation not permitted
./runcluvfy.sh:line 99:/tmp/bootstrap/ouibootstrap.log: permission denied
From the above output, we can see the directory bootstrap under /tmp causes the problem. The solution is to remove the directory bootstrap. I run the 2 commands:
[ora11g@rac1 tmp]$ rmdir bootstrap
Output: Operation not permitted
[ora11g@rac1 tmp]$ rm -rf bootstrap
Output: cannot remove bootstrap: Operation not permitted.
[ora11g@rac2 tmp]$ ls
Output: there is no 'bootstrap' directory.
My questions are:
First, does "cannot remove boostrap in rac1" cause that /tmp in rac2 could not be determine mount point ?
Second, can any folk help to remove the directory bootstrap under /tmp ?
Thanks.

Folks,
Hello. Thanks a lot for replying. I have just run the 2 commands:
[root@rac2 \]# chown -R ora11g:dba /u01
[root@rac2 \]# chmod -R 775 /u01
ora11g is the user who installs the Grid and /u01 is the directory where Grid is installed and dba is the group.
I go back to Grid Installer Step 7 of 10 in rac1 and check again and see as below:
Free Space: Rac2 : /tmp
Cause: Could not determine mount point for location specified.
Action: Ensure location specified is available
Expected Value: n/a
Actual Value: n/a
The problem is not solved after run the above 2 commands in rac2.
In addition, I have run Cluster Verification Utility using the command:
[ora11g@rac1 grid]./runcluvfy.sh stage -pre crsinst -n rac1,rac2 -r 11gR2 -orainv ora11g -verbose
Output: All of items for rac2 are passed. There is only one item for rac1 is failed as below:
Check default user file creation mask:
NodeName: rac1
Available: 0002
Required: 0022
Comment: failed
As we see above, the result of CVU command is not the same with Grid Installer step 7 of 10 (Installation Environment Verification):
CVU command doesn't find /tmp mount point problem for rac2 that Grid Installer does.
Grid Installer step 7 of 10 doesn't find user file creation mask problem for rac1 that CVU command does.
I have tried to find out whether creation mask failed for rac1 causes /tmp problem for rac2. I have changed the line "umask 002" to "umask 0022" for rac1 in each of the 3 files below and run CVU command each time for each file:
rac1:
/etc/bashrc
/etc/profile
/etc/csh.cshrc
But chang the line "umask 002" to "umask 0022" for rac1 in each of the above 3 files does not solve the problem.
My questions are:
First, why is the result of CVU command not the same with that of Grid Installer step 7 of 10 ?
Second, why change the line "umask 002" to "umask 0022" in 3 files can't solve creation mask problem for rac1 ?
Third, how to solve /tmp problem for rac2 and creation mask problem for rac1 ?
Thanks.

Oracle 11gR2 RAC - R language integration

Hello,
We want statistical language R integration with oracle database. Does this come with default installation of oracle database Oracle 11gR2 RAC ?
OR it requires EXADATA - BIGDATA (oracle appliance)?
Kindly let us know steps for installation /enabling R language ? Basically we are looking for 3 options (transparency, In-database, embedded). Optimal option choice is done automatically depending on R language script (I think R script needs to have different calls?)
Thanks

Please do NOT duplicate your questions here.
R is a language. Oracle is a database. You store data in a database. You write programs [using a language such as R] to extract and manipulate data from the database.

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 11gR2 RAC - timeseries

Hello,
We would like to know if Oracle 11gR2 RAC supports timeseries data storage and time-series functions. Timeseries storage is quite different - in terms of storage optimization - block storages, compressions, columnar databases and others. Time-series functions like regressions, data-mining. Does these options come by default or we require statistical language R integration?
Thanks

Hello,
1. Usally time-series data goes in multiple millions, so timeseries databases like FAME,KDB,SYBASE-IQ are used. Does oracle11gr2 provide storage optmizations, compressions, columnar database like FAME,KDB,SYBASE-IQ?
The only methods of optimization are partitioning of the data by some date or if data set is narrow (few columns)l enough, partitioned IOT.
2. http://www.oracle.com/us/corporate/press/1515738
Link is about R statistical language and data mining integration with Oracle database 11gR2. Does this come default during installation or with BigData - EXADATA? OR this is a seperate license?I am not sure about the licensing, you will need to ask your sales person, but it looks like it might be apart of ODM (oracle data mining - a licensed product)
Take a read through this case study.

Oracle 11gR2 RAC Vs Linux Version

Hi Guys
Please let me know whether i can start the Oracle 11gR2 RAC Grid installation in RHEL 6 or the higher version. Will i able to download the ASM libs for RHEL 6 n greater version. Thanks.

Hi,
You can install 11.2.0.3 on RHEL 6 or OEL 6. Please note that asmlib rpms are no more available on RHEL 6 and hence will advise to go for OEL 6. For RHEL, you have to use udev rules.
