Oracle database 10g RAc an ASM configuration

Hi all,
I want to ask to everybody something about Oracle 10g RAC and ASm configuration. We plan to migrate to Oracle 10g from 9i, and we will begin configuring oracle but we have to decide which configuration are the best.
Our materials are bellow:
Hardware: RP 3440 (HP)
OS : HPUX 11i Ver 1
Storage: EVA 4000 (eva disk group)
The problem is:
Our supplier recommand us to use HP serviguard + HP serviceguard extension for RAC+ RAc and Raw device as configuration.
But we want to use Oracekl Clusterware + RAC + ASM
My question is if anybody know what is the best configuration, we want to use ASm.
Can we use HP serviguard and ASM.
Some documentations or link explain oracle RAC and ASM configuration will be appreciate.
Thanks for your help.
Regards.

Hello,
there's no extra RAC software package, but the option is only offered, if one of the supported cluster layers for the respective OS has been installed before.
10.1.0.3 looks like a complete redesign, but anyway it is a patch, you have to install 10.1.0.2 first.

Oracle Database 10g - RAC install

1)
I am trying to install Oracle 10g RAC (for Solaris Operating System (SPARC)) using 'Enterprise/Standard Edition for Solaris Operating System (SPARC, 64-bit) - ship_rel10_sol64_db.cpio.gz' downloaded installation. There is no separate installation for RAC, so I assume this is the right install to use for RAC, right?
Since I don't have cabeling for Interconnect done yet, I tried to install Database/RAC prior CRS installation, but no option has been offered for RAC. Do I need to have clustering software installed first in order to be able to installl Oracle Database RAC?
2)
Why is Oracle Database 10g release 10.1.0.3 patch set (for Solaris Operating System (SPARC)) so large - 648 MB?
Do I need to install 10.1.0.2 first?

Hello,

Running Oracle database 10g and 11g on same 5 RAC nodes

Hello Gurus,
Could any body throw light if I can install and sucessfully run Oracle database 10g and 11g on the same Oracle RAC installation setup.My setup is below
Number of nodes-5
OS- windows 2003 or RHEL5
storage- DELL EMC SAN
Clusterware- oracle version11g
File system-Automatic storage management(ASM)
After I successfully setup clusterware,ASM on the nodes,I would want to install 11g database on all 5 nodes .
Then Install 10g database on only 3 of the nodes using the same clusterware.
What are your views on the same.
Also FYI... as per metalink node 220970.1(RAC: Frequently Asked Questions) one can do such a setup.
what iam looking for is practical experience if anyone has implemented this in production system,if yes any issues faced and how tough it is to support.
Thanks,
Imtiyaz

You could run an 11g database and 10g database on the same cluster as long as you use Clusterware 11g.
The administration aspect will drastically change according to the platform you run on. As of now, it appears you don't know whether it will be Linux or Windows.
It would be practical to support the same database release.

Solaris 10 and Hitachi LUN mapping with Oracle 10g RAC and ASM?

Hi all,
I am working on an Oracle 10g RAC and ASM installation with Sun E6900 servers attached to a Hitachi SAN for shared storage with Sun Solaris 10 as the server OS. We are using Oracle 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3) RAC clusterware
for the clustering software and raw devices for shared storage and Veritas VxFs 4.1 filesystem.
My question is this:
How do I map the raw devices and LUNs on the Hitachi SAN to Solaris 10 OS and Oracle 10g RAC ASM?
I am aware that with an Oracle 10g RAC and ASM instance, one needs to configure the ASM instance initialization parameter file to set the asm_diskstring setting to recognize the LUNs that are presented to the host.
I know that Sun Solaris 10 uses /dev/rdsk/CwTxDySz naming convention at the OS level for disks. However, how would I map this to Oracle 10g ASM settings?
I cannot find this critical piece of information ANYWHERE!!!!
Thanks for your help!

You don't seem to state categorically that you are using Solaris Cluster, so I'll assume it since this is mainly a forum about Solaris Cluster (and IMHO, Solaris Cluster with Clusterware is better than Clusterware on its own).
Clusterware has to see the same device names from all cluster nodes. This is why Solaris Cluster (SC) is a positive benefit over Clusterware because SC provides an automatically managed, consistent name space. Clusterware on its own forces you to manage either the symbolic links (or worse mknods) to create a consistent namespace!
So, given the SC consistent namespace you simple add the raw devices into the ASM configuration, i.e. /dev/did/rdsk/dXsY. If you are using Solaris Volume Manager, you would use /dev/md/<setname>/rdsk/dXXX and if you were using CVM/VxVM you would use /dev/vx/rdsk/<dg_name>/<dev_name>.
Of course, if you genuinely are using Clusterware on its own, then you have somewhat of a management issue! ... time to think about installing SC?

Does managing Oracle 10g RAC with ASM require full root access?

We currently have three entirely separate support areas, Unix, Storage and DBA. We're now considering using Oracle 10g RAC with ASM and as part of the assessment trying to work out if we can still draw similar support boundaries. I know that installing RAC and configuring ASM requires root access but will DBA continue to need root access to manage & support RAC? If so, does anyone know if the commands they need can be RBAC'd or if we just need to share root access going forwards. I've had a look at a number of docs including http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/rac.102/b14197/toc.htm. which is fairly informative but none of them seem to mention the requirement for root access on Solaris. I'm guessing they just assume that it's available, but that's not generally the case in our environment.
All advice / info welcome!

I would have thought that the only reason you would need root access once RAC and ASM had been set up would be to add more disks to the ASM configuration. This would be needed to change the ownership on the raw LUNs or to make additions to metasets (SVM/Oban) or diskgroups (VxVM/CVM). Beyond that, I can't imagine needing root access.
I'm sure others will chime in if they can think of other reasons!

Tim

How to install Oracle Label Security in Oracle Database 10g EE

Hello All
I just want to know how to install Oracle Label Security in Oracle 10g Database EE.
I read in Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control Installation and Basic Configuration that Label Security must be installed before installing Enterprise Manager Grid Control.
I have Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1.0.1) on my Windows XP System, and I patch it to 10.1.0.3.

Sorry about my English.

Options is to connect to Oracle Policy Manager or use Oracle Internet Directory (OID)to administer Oracle Label Security.

AUDIT IN Oracle Database 10g Express

I configured Oracle Database 10g Express R2 for auditing,
ALTER SYSTEM SET audit_trail=db SCOPE=SPFILE;
AUDIT SELECT TABLE, UPDATE TABLE;
but...in dba_audit_trail ,
ACTION_NAME is always SESSION REC
but...i think its possible to record specific action like select,update..etc
thanx

Yes, regular auditing features are available at Oracle XE. Once you have configured your audit trail, just issue the audit command to start auditing focused areas.

Oracle Database 10g: Administration Workshop I Part 1 CD

On the first learning CD for Database 10g Administration, there is an incorrectly displayed question.
Oracle Database 10g Workshop -> Installing an Oracle Database -> Installation Using OUI -> Page 21
Question is: To Locally manage the databases stored on one or multiple computers, you select:
A. the Configure the Database with Enterprise Manager check box on the Management Options page.
B. etc.
C. etc.
D. the Raw Devices option button on the Store Options page.
When the correct answer (A) is selected, the dialogue displayed states:
'That is incorrect. The Raw Devices option is used to manage the storage devices outside the OS file system. Try again'
As if D was selected instead of A. If D is selected, the message is:
That is correct. The Configure the Database with Enterprise Manager option enables you to locally manage the databases stored in one or multiple computers.
It seems as though the links next to question A and D are flipped.

Hello,
I have used it and couple of others workshop in CD format and it is worth buying. Make sure you have a database setup where you can play all the excercise available in workshop. Beside that I have also attended instructer led training, though self-study course material pretty much same but you can't replace an experienced instructor and his insights. I recommend if you can at least one instrcuter led training beside your self-study course it will be really helpful to you.

Best practice for oracle 10.2 RAC with ASM

Did any one tried/installed Oracle 10.2 RAC with ASM and CRS ?
What is the best practice?
1. separate home for CRS, ASM and Oracle Database?
2. separate home for CRS and same home for ASM and Oracle Darabase?
we set up the test environment with separate CRS, ASM and Oracle database homes, but we have tons of issues with the listener, spfile and tnsnames.ora files. So, seeking advise from the gurus who implimeted/tested the same ?

I am getting ready to install the 10gR2 database software (10gR2 Clusterware was just installed ) and I want to have a home for ASM and another for database as you suggest. I have been told that 10gR2 was to have a smaller set of binaries that can be used for the ASM home ... but I am not sure how I go about installing it. The first look at the installer does not seem to make it obvious...Is it a custom build option?

Can't succesfully install Oracle Database 10g Express Edition on Ubuntu

Hi,
I've been trying to install Oracle Database 10g xe on Ubuntu 10.04 and when I execute the .deb package (oracle-xe-universal_10.2.0.1-1.0_i386.deb) I get a quick installation that doesn't ask me for any configuration settings. When the installation is finished I don't get any menu in my Applications menu named "Oracle Database 10g Express Edition" as specified in Getting Started Guide (I only get some items grouped into an category called "Other" (Backup Database, Get Started, Get Started With Oracle Database 10g Express Edition, Go To Online Forum, Read Documentation, Read Online Help, Register For Online Forum, Restore Database, Run SQL Command Line, Start Database and Stop Database). As a consequence I can't access the Oracle Database Home Page.
In addition when I click on Start Database I get the following message: "Operation failed. josep is not member of 'dba' group".
I've tried to re-download the packages and to configure it by editing /etc/init.d/oracle-xe but this doesn't solve my problem.
can you give me some help?
Thabk you in advance!

Migration Oracle 9iR2 - Oracle Database 10g Express Edition, please, help

Good day!
Now I study examples from tutorial book "Oracle 9iR2 Data Warehousing"
(translated to Russian) written by Lilian Hobbs, Susan Hilson, Shilpa Lawande. However my Oracle is "Oracle Database 10g Express Edition" and ( as I thought ) for this reason I can't perform these examples.
Please, help me, if it no hard.
First example founded on using "Oracle Database Configuration Assistant"
and "Oracle Enterprise Manager Console". However, I not found them at
"Oracle Database 10g Express Edition".
Now I use only "Oracle Application Express" ( and SQL ). Please, tell me,
if "Application Express" has enough functionality with comparision to
"Oracle Database Configuration Assistant" and "Oracle Enterprise Manager Console"
and how I need to do ? (It must, because 10 > 9)
Second example founded on using SQL. First 80% SQL-commanfs of this executed succesfully. But command "CREATE TABLE easydw.purchases" has error message
"PARTITIONing is not available." Really, in "2 Day Developer Guide"
(SQL Reserved Words ) PARTITION is not exist.
Can I CREATE TABLE easydw.purchases by "Oracle Database 10g Express Edition"
(with PARTITIONing by other means of SQL )?
There is full text of this SQL-Command:
CREATE TABLE easydw.purchases
(product_id varchar2(8)
constraint not_null_product_id NOT NULL
constraint fk_product_id
REFERENCES product(product_id),
time_key date
constraint not_null_time NOT NULL
constraint fk_time
REFERENCES time(time_key),
customer_id varchar2(10)
constraint not_null_customer_id NOT NULL
constraint fk_customer_id
REFERENCES customer(customer_id),
purchase_date date,
purchase_time number(4,0),
purchase_price number(6,2),
shipping_charge number (5,2),
today_special_offer varchar2(1)
constraint special_offer
CHECK (today_special_offer IN ('Y','N')) )
PARTITION by RANGE (time_key )
partition purchases_jan2002
values less than (TO_DATE('01-02-2002', 'DD-MM-YYYY'))
pctfree 0 pctused 99
storage (initial 64k next 16k pctincrease 0)
tablespace purchases_jan2002,
partition purchases_feb2002
values less than (TO_DATE('01-03-2002', 'DD-MM-YYYY'))
pctfree 0 pctused 99
storage (initial 64k next 16k pctincrease 0)
tablespace purchases_feb2002,
partition purchases_mar2002
values less than (TO_DATE('01-04-2002', 'DD-MM-YYYY'))
pctfree 0 pctused 99
storage (initial 64k next 16k pctincrease 0)
tablespace purchasee_mar2002 );
Naturally, I also shall continue try find solution.
Winni.

Winni,
Partitioning is only available with Oracle Enterprise Edition.
Here is a list of features by edition:
http://www.oracle.com/database/product_editions.html
DBCA is not needed with Express edition because you can only have one XE database per server, and all options are pre-configured.
Enterprise Manager Console is not included with XE - only with the other editions.
You can get most of the functionality through SQL, Application Express and SQL Developer.
