Oracle Grid Infrastructure(Cluster)

Dear Guru's;
I'm installing Oracle Grid 11gr2 on windows 2003 server.I installed successfully without domain controller. But when i try to install with Active Domain controller i faced following error
INS-20802 Grid Infrastructure Failed
Cause:Plugin failed
Please guide me how to resolve it...
Thank you for your guidance...

Sir,
Thanks for ur reply..
Before adding domain IPV6 is in disable state only. I didn't check after adding domain. Is there any possibility of IPV6
enables after domain addition. And also i have installed directly from local admin account. How to give admin rights to domain account to use for cluster.
Thanks for advice.
Expecting your reply..I don't know if IPV6 was enabled by AD installation. I pointed this issue due this happen with me (i.e IPV6 enabled). Check if it's enable, if yes, disable it.
I do not know if it is supported to install Oracle Clusterware on the same server where is installed/configred AD. But I don't recommend do that. Both provide service of high availability that should be installed on separate host.

  • RAC - Oracle Grid Infrastructure configure failed

    Hi, am trying to install 2 node RAC on Oracle VMs. Before the installation during the -preinst check there were few issues which were resolved (ex user equivalence). After that during the installation process of the Grid it failed at step "Configure Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a cluster". After it failed at this step, subsequent steps too failed which I asked OUI to ignore and then I ran both the post installation scripts. And then ran post crsinst which failed. Pasting below the output of the root.sh script, post crsinst and other checks.

    before installation have u configure the private interconnect on both the nodes to same network adapter..
    for example on node 1 if the private interconnect is on eth0 then on the node 2 it should use eth0 only...
    for private interconnect use the hostonly option on both the nodes in the network configuration page of the vmware or virtual box..
    and for public network it can be bridged
    more over if you are installing on the laptop its good to configure the SSH using the OUI.. rather than doing it manually.. as it saves time
    the private and the public networks should not have same range of ip address. like if public address are like 192.168.2.222/255.255.255.0 and private address have to be different like 10.10.1.2/255.0.0.0 (this is just an example)
    have to configured the NTP.
    any ways try installing the oracle rac on virtual box follow the steps given the below website they are pretty straight forward...

  • How do I define 2 disk groups for ocr and voting disks at the oracle grid infrastructure installation window

    Hello,
    It may sound too easy to someone but I need to ask it anyway.
    I am in the middle of building Oracle RAC 11.2.0.3 on Linux. I have 2 storage and I created three LUNs in each of storage so 6 LUNs in total look in both of servers. If I choose NORMAL as a redundancy level, is it right to choose my 6 disks those are created for OCR_VOTE at the grid installation? Or should I choose only 3 of them and configure mirroring at latter stage?
    The reason why I am asking this is that I didn't find any place to create asm disk group for ocr and voting disks at the oracle grid infrastructure installation window. In fact, I would to like to create two disk groups in which one of groups contains three disks those were brought from storage 1 and the second one contains rest three 3 disk that come from the last storage.
    I believe that you will understand the manner and help me on choosing proper way.
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    You have 2 Storage H/W.
    You will need to configure a Quorum ASMDisk to store a Voting Disk.
    Because if you lose 1/2 or more of all of your voting disks, then nodes get evicted from the cluster, or nodes kick themselves out of the cluster.
    You must have the odd number of voting disk (i.e 1,3 or 5)  one voting disk per ASM DISK, So 1 Storage will hold more voting disk than another storage.
    (e.g 3 Voting Disk - 2 voting stored in stg-A and 1 voting disk store in stg-B)
    If fail the storage that hold the major number of  Voting disk the whole cluster (all nodes) goes down. Does not matter if you have a other storage online.
    It will happen:

  • Oracle Grid Infrastructure / RAC Provisioning

    Using the OEM GC Provisioning and Automated Patching Pack, you are able to provision a complete Oracle RAC Cluster, including the Grid Infrastructure and creation of an ASM Instance and a RAC Database.
    In this paper I show an example of how I was able to do the provisioning of Grd Infrastructure and Oracle RAC on a 2 node OracleVM Cluster.

    Good one mate, I have recently installed OEM 11g on 2 nodes, and I am expected to set this (provisioning) up on OEM 11g soon, documents like this come in definitely handy, have seen your site too, looks very good and informative, thanks and keep writing.

  • Oracle grid infrastructure for a standalone server download

    Hi there,
    I am trying to install Oracle 11g but it says if I want to use ASM and oracle Restart then I must intsall Oracle grid infrastructure for a standalone server.
    I am doing this installation on my home pc running Windows 7 to make sure it work, however, I downloaded Database 11g Enterprise/Standard Editions but i cannot find any download for Oracle grid infrastructure for a standalone server.
    Can anyone please help as i am confused here??
    I even went to the /stage directory of my 11g download and there is no folder called cluster or grid or anything.
    Thanks in advance!!

    When you go to OTN to download the software, click on the "See All" link next to the platform you are downloading and you'll see the links for GRID.
    However, you do not need to install GRID if you don't plan on using ASM and Restart.

  • Oracle documentation for Installation for Oracle Grid Infrastructure

    Hi
    I want to install 11g Release 2 "Oracle Grid Infrastrucure" on Aix system without Cluster/RAC option. The requirement is to configure ASM on an Standalone system without any Cluster and RAC. Is there any documentation available for this installation.
    I have already checked the below link which provide information on Installation for Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a Cluster.
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e10814/toc.htm
    Please let know if there is any documentation for Installation for Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a standalone system.

    Hi there. Well, the installation of Grid Infrastructure would ask you that what kind of installation you want to do, single instance or cluster? If you would choose single instance installation, it would not be much different from doing any other oracle installation. The key factor to do it and why its mandatory is because from 11.2 onwards, ASM can't be managed from DBCA but from its own tool only, ASMCA and that runs from Grid Home. So I don't think that not finding the docs should be a show stopper for you. I haven't done it on AIX so I am not sure that I can be of some help about it. I have done it on OEL 5 and it didn't throw any issues for me.

  • Oracle Grid Infrastructure: Active/passive Clusters

    Full blown RAC instances are still relatively rare. Maybe the high costs are one of the main reasons for this. Anyway, many SAP/Oracle installations don't really require a fault tolerant database. A simple automatic failover in an active/passive cluster would be sufficient.
    In the book "Oracle Database 11g RAC on Linux"  I found a very interessting comment on page 28:
    A little known fact is that using Oracle Grid Infrastructure makes it very simple to set up a cost effective active/passive cluster. Leveraging the Grid Infrastructure API and Oracleu2019s Automatic Storage Management as a cluster logical volume manager makes it easy to constantly monitor a single instance Oracle database. In case of a node failure, the database will automatically be relocated to the standby node. Depending on the fast_start_mttr_target initialization parameter and the size of the recovery set, the failover to the standby node can be very quick; however, users will be disconnected from the database as part of the failover process.
    Now I have two questions:
    1. If I want to create a proof of concept, where do I start? I already had a look at the Oracle 11g documentation, but in the documentation "cluster" equals "RAC".
    2. It is not sufficient to perform only a database failover. We need to handle the SAP system as well. Is it supported by SAP to put /usr/sap/SID and /sapmnt/SID into ASM 11.2 and present them e.g. as ASM cluster file systems?
    Regards,
    Mark

    Hello Stefan,
    we are both on one line. I would also prefer a simple active-passive cluster setup to a full blown RAC or even a RAC One Node. especially if the license fee for Clusterware is significantly lower than for RAC. However, Oracle staff makes it really clear that Oracle does not want customers to implement active-passive clusters based on Clusterware without RAC. They even say this active-passive cluster is no longer supported on 11.2. by Oracle! Of course it worked fine with 11.1 and there is no reason why it should be technically no longer possible with 11.2. WIth this adverse winds from Oracle blowing in our face, it doesn't make sense to implement such a active-passive cluster any more, however elegent it might have been technically.
    So let's see what the alternatives are and when RAC One Node will be available (and at what price!).
    Regards,
    Mark

  • ASMCA needs Oracle Grid Infrastructure to configure ASM

    Hi,
    I am trying to install ASM 11gR2 on RHEL5. I am using VMWare Workstation for this.
    I have already installed Oracle database software and Grid Infrastructure on this machine.While installing Grid Infrastructure, I chose install Grid Infrastructure software only.
    Once this was successfull I am trying to create ASM instance using asmca.
    Regarding the disks, I am using raw devices. I created a virtual disk which I have partitioned but haven't formatted it. Done this to create raw device
    [root@localhost sysconfig]# /bin/raw /dev/raw/raw1 /dev/sdb
    /dev/raw/raw1: bound to major 8, minor 16
    and have added
    ACTION=="add",KERNEL=="sdb",RUN+="/bin/raw /dev/raw/raw1 %N"
    to /etc/udev/rules.d/60-raw.rules
    Then I tried creating the disk but it failed. So I did the following steps to fix it
    [root@dhcppc2 Softwares]# /etc/init.d/oracleasm createdisk VOL1 /dev/sdb
    Marking disk "VOL1" as an ASM disk: [FAILED]
    [oracle@oracle11gR2 grid]$ tail -f /var/log/oracleasm
    Device "/dev/sdb" is not a partition
    To fix this
    [root@localhost ~]# /usr/sbin/asmtool -C -l /dev/oracleasm -n VOL1 -s /dev/sdb -a force=yes
    asmtool: Device "/dev/sdb" is not a partition
    asmtool: Continuing anyway
    Now I am able to view the asmdisk through listdisks option.
    Have set following environment variables before running asmca
    [oracle@oracle11gR2 ~]$ export ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/Grid
    [oracle@oracle11gR2 ~]$ export PATH=/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/Grid/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/home/oracle/bin
    When I am running ASMCA I am facing this error - Oralce Grid Infrastrcture is not configured properly. ASMCA needs Oracle Grid Infrastructure to configure ASM
    Any thoughts?

    Hi Aman,
    Thanks for the reply.
    Is it possible to configure 11gR2 ASM on single instance databases ? I have done the config with 10g but I am struggling with the Grid Infrastructure. For eg: when I do deinstall of Grid Infrstructure

    I don't see any commands to run but the deinstall blindly says that
    "Press Enter after you finish running the above commands"
    and while looking at the net I found out it might be something similar to this
    /u01/Softwares/oracle11gR2/deinstall/perl/bin/perl -I/u01/Softwares/oracle11gR2/deinstall/perl/lib -I/u01/Softwares/oracle11gR2/deinstall/crs/install /u01/Softwares/oracle11gR2/deinstall/crs/install/rootcrs.pl -force -delete -paramfile /u01/Softwares/oracle11gR2/deinstall/response/deinstall_Ora11g_gridinfrahome1.rsp
    Should I run the previous command as root.
    Am I doing things in the right way or am I missing something here?

  • I cannot find Oracle Grid Infrastructure Patch Set 2 for windows x64

    So maybe i'm stupid, but i've searched metalink every way i can think of to find the patches mentioned in the following preinstall instructions for 11.2.0.2 for windows
    "To upgrade Oracle Grid Infrastructure release 11.2.0.1 to Oracle Grid Infrastructure release 11.2.0.2, you must first do at least one of the following:
    * Patch the Oracle Grid Infrastructure release 11.2.0.1 home with the patch 9413827 and patch 9706490.
    * Install Oracle Grid Infrastructure Patch Set 1 (GI PSU1) or Oracle Grid Infrastructure Patch Set 2 (GI PSU2)."
    I've searched in Patches and Updates and https://updates.oracle.com.
    I've got a 2 node 11gR2 (11.2.0.1) RAC on Windows 2k8 that i want to patch to 11.2.0.2 before implementing as production. I can find all the Unix flavored patches, but not the Windows Patch.
    Feel free to make fun of me for using Windoze or not knowing how to use metalink, whatever you like, as long as you include a url to the Patch I'm looking for.
    thanks
    John

    The first thing that i tried was the out-of-place upgrade, which failed 3/4 of the way through. This left me with a circumstance where i couldn't use srvctl to administer my RAC because of version mismatched files. The RAC appeared to be up but administering it was impossible no matter what home i set. I deinstalled 11.2.0.2 grid and the 2nd node of my RAC was broken and couldn't see the ASM instance at all. i actually had to modify the windows registry to get the 2nd node to behave properly.
    That's when i read more carefully the installation instructions for the upgrade and came across the text i included.
    "To upgrade Oracle Grid Infrastructure release 11.2.0.1 to Oracle Grid Infrastructure release 11.2.0.2, you must first do at least one of the following:
    Patch the Oracle Grid Infrastructure release 11.2.0.1 home with the patch 9413827 and patch 9706490.
    Install Oracle Grid Infrastructure Patch Set 1 (GI PSU1) or Oracle Grid Infrastructure Patch Set 2 (GI PSU2).
    Adding nodes to a cluster during a rolling upgrade is not supported.#
    Oracle Clusterware and Oracle ASM upgrades are always out-of-place upgrades. With Oracle Grid Infrastructure 11g release 2 (11.2), you cannot perform an in-place upgrade of Oracle Clusterware and Oracle ASM to existing homes."
    This mentions both the out-of-place upgrade and the need for the intermediate patches to be installed first. I'm not sure what to believe at this point. I read the above instructions as saying the intermediate patches need to be installed BEFORE the out-of-place upgrade would be successful, but i can't say that i understand why that would be the case.
    Has someone done a successful upgrade on Windows from 11.2.0.1 directly to 11.2.0.2?
    I appreciate y'all's help.
    thanks,
    JR

  • Oracle Grid Infrastructure 11g Release 2 (11.2.0.3.0)

    Hi,
    I want to download Oracle Grid Infrastructure 11g Release 2 (11.2.0.3.0) for installation on Oracle Solaris 11 as Oracle Grid Infrastructure 11g Release 2 (11.2.0.1.0) cannot be installed on Solaris 11,
    I know its available but cannot find the link to download it, is it not available for download from OTN network ?
    If you happen to know the link please let me know or is there a way I can install 11.2.0.1.0 on Solaris 11.
    Thank you for you help.
    Rgds
    Terry

    11/10/11: Patch Set 11.2.0.3 for Linux, Solaris, Windows, AIX and HP-UX Itanium is now available on support.oracle.com.
    You have to ask support to send you the cloud link where you can download the binaries OR you can ask them to send you the media also.
    It says right on the above link

  • Oracle Grid Infrastructure Query !!

    Hi
    I have a requirement to install Oracle Grid Infrastructure software on SUN SPARC v11. I would like to know, Whether the Oracle Database 11g Release 2 Grid Infrastructure (11.2.0.1.0) for Solaris Operating System (x86-64)  ) is compatible with Oracle 11.2.0.4 Database version ?
    From where can I download the link for the same ?
    Regards,
    Chan

    I would like to know, Whether the Oracle Database 11g Release 2 Grid Infrastructure (11.2.0.1.0) for Solaris Operating System (x86-64)  ) is compatible with Oracle 11.2.0.4 Database version ?
    No, it is not compatible. You cannot have database version that is higher than the GI version. If you want to run an Oracle 11.2.0.4 database, then GI needs to be *at least* 11.2.0.4 as well. It can be 12.1 if needed/desired.
    From where can I download the link for the same ?
    From My Oracle Support, you can download the 11.2.0.4 version of both the database and GI software. This link shows you how to obtain the patchset.
    Obtain Database Patchsets » Peasland Database Blog
    Files 1of7 and 2of7 are the 11.2.0.4 version of the database. File 3of7 is the 11.2.0.4 version of GI.

    Check the logfiles under $GRID_HOME/log/<node_name>/cssd/
    I had seen the same problem and the following resolved the problem for me.
    [root@rac1 ~]# rm -f /usr/tmp/.oracle/* /tmp/.oracle/* /var/tmp/.oracle/*
    [root@rac1 ~]# > $ORA_CRS_HOME/log/<node_name>/cssd/<node_name>.pid

  • Install Oracle Grid Infrastructure 11g Release 2 - Yes or No???

    Hello,
    We are setting up a new OEM Grid 12c system on Linux x86-64. We want to use it to manage several stand-alone, non-RAC, non-ASM database machines. The docs are unclear - do we have to install Oracle Grid Infrastructure 11g Release 2 on any of the database machines, including the machine that will support the OEM repository database, or not? Again, no plans to run Oracle Restart or Oracle ASM or Oracle RAC on that machine or any others.
    The docs are not clear and we need a definitive answer.
    Thank you, TL

    Hello, OTN gurus.
    Thanks for your attention to my original post. However, I am asking about a specific installation package called "Oracle Grid Infrastructure", which is separate from OEM Grid 12c and Oracle Database, and is supposed to be installed in its own home directory before the Oracle database software is installed in its oracle_home. "Oracle Grid Infrastructure" is also supposed to be installed in a different oracle_home from the OEM 12c Agent and a different oracle_home from Oracle Database, under specific conditions.
    The docs say that you need Oracle Grid Infrastructure installed first in order to implement Oracle Restart and Oracle ASM for the Database. Other docs say you also need it for OEM Grid software. The docs are confusing on this point. I do not need Oracle Restart or Oracle ASM. I want to avoid installing this separate product, called Oracle Grid Infrastructure if I can. Does anyone know if a simple environment of Oracle Database 11gR2 (11.2.0.3), managed by OEM 12c OMS and Agents, requires "Oracle Grid Infrastructure"?
    Thanks, TL
