Oratab entry

one of my RAC node, I see the following entry in oratab file.
<instance>:/u00/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/database:N:11.1.0:oracle:/u00/app/11.2.0.2/grid/network/admin
This format is new to me, Please explain me what is this format (mapping instance with grid home)
Thank you.

It's normal because on your oratab now exists information about your database instance and clusterware instance.

  • Wrong oratab entry

    I am on a RAC 10.2.0.4 db Standard Edition on RHEL 5.3. Two nodes. The db uses an ASM 11.1.0.7 instance and CRS 11.1.0.7.
    I have launched dbca and created a database like I had done with other 3 databases before.
    My /etc/oratab file does not contain the instance name but the database name. Moreover the oraenv utility does not set the environment correctly.
    I think this issue might be due to the fact I had a wrong ORACLE_SID variable set when I launched dbca.
    How can I fix this issue?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    it is normal that in a RAC environment only the database entry is in oratab, not the instance name. (That has nothing to do to have set ORACLE_SID before, since this should have been overwritten by DBCA when creating the database).
    In my RAC environments for oraenv I always add (not change!) these entries to the oratab, to have an easy possibility to set the oraenv.
    In generall oratab entries are not used actively other than in dbstart, which is not active in RAC environments anyway. So there should not be any sideeffects.

  • Manually adding oratab entry

    DB Version:11.1.0.6.0
    OS : AIX
    This is related to threadi had started earlier.
    Create a second database from an existing ORACLE_HOME
    I'll just give you a background:
    We have a database running for an OLTP test environment. We needed to create another database for Datawarehousing needs. The init.ora parameter are going to be different for this. So we had to create another database from the same ORACLE_HOME of the oltp database.
    Since we were having some issues with dbca due to some JAVA related errors I manually created the DB using 'CREATE DATABASE' statement.
    The database got created succefully. But the entry for this db is not there in oratab file. So, i am going to add this entry manually. This should be fine. Right?

  • Asterick in /etc/oratab entry?

    I am having problems finding documentation on this. What does the *, asterick in the /etc/oratab file do? Ex: *:/u01/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1:Y
    Please advise.

Since it is unlikely that you will be able to put in a meaningful SID='*', you can consider that a comment.
    In a pinch, you could read the /usr/local/bin/oraenv script.

    Sorry I don't want to simply post my script here at OTN. I spent several months working on it and put a lot of thoughts into. I may at some time in the future share it, but it will have to be under different circumstances.
    But This will not work as i need to source both SID and HOME
    Why not? Simply query the appropriate information. SID and HOME are both stored in /etc/oratab. You simply need to fetch or search the appropriate column and return $1 or $2 from the line, which contain the SID or HOME information.
    Get SID and HOME for +ASM:
    $ var=`awk -F':' '$1 ~ /+ASM/ { print $1,$2 }' /etc/oratab`
    $ echo $var
    +ASM /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/grid
    Convert result into a variable array using space as delimeter and export each value:
    $ var=(${var// / })
    $ export a1=`echo ${var[0]}`
    $ export a2=`echo ${var[1]}`
    $ echo $a1
    +ASM
    $ echo $a2
    /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/grid
    If you want to do this for other ASM instances, simply specify the instance name. You can also write a procedure to walk through a list of possible search strings using "for item in "ASM+ ASM1+ ASM2+" do; etc.", if you want to get fancy.

  • Automatic startup of database in Unix

    I would like my database to startup automatically whenever the server starts up. Where do I put the startup scripts in Unix?

    It depends on which flavor of unix you are using. In Linux you put all start/kill scripts in the /etc/init.d directory and then create a link in the appropriate run level directory (/etc/rd?.d where ? is the run level). Oracle start scripts are usually placed in the run level 3 directory (/etc/rc3.d). Kill scripts are usually placed in the /etc/rc6.d directory.
    To make a long story short, copy the $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbora script to /etc/init.d, 2) create a symbolic link from that to /etc/rc3.d/S99dbora and /etc/rc6.d/K99dbora. All scripts in the /etc/rc3.d directory that begin with S will be run in alpha order when the OS enters run level 3.
    Don't forget to set your /etc/oratab entry to 'Y' so that it starts your database.

    Thank you all.

    Hm ... please have a look into ML-Note:337737.1 (I'm just mentioning the combinations with an 11g database) - I noticed that you don't have a RAC installation but nevertheless you'll have CSS running for your ASM instance.
    CRS........ASM............DB......Certified
    11.1_____11.1_____11.1_____Y
    11.1.____10.2______11.1_____Y
    11.1_____10.1.0.3__11.1_____Y
    So upgrading the ASM instance first should solve this issue. Upgrading ASM means: you'll shutdown your database running in ASM and upgrade the ASM instance with the DBUA. It'll take just a few minutes because there's no data dictionary in ASM.
    Kind regards

  • RMAN full database restoration

    Hi All,
    I'm doing a test of rman backup. I took full backup of my database (controle file, datafiles and archivelog file). I dropped my database from dbca GUI.
    Can i restore my full backup from RMAN in this case. I mean i want to restore my full backup, wht should i do. Should i create new database in the same name of my old database and recover from rman like in export utility or not. What is the issue. Note that i didn't backed up redolofile, password file and parameter file and they are already removed when i dropped the database from DBCA.
    If any one have an idea in this case. Note that i took also export full backup if no issue from RMAN i'll restore it from export backup.
    Thanks for your help
    regards
    raitsarevo

    And tell us OS and database version (RMAN 8i is not the same as RMAN 9i,10g,11g,...).
    Dropping the database through DBCA is not the same as losing it through media failure, that means RMAN can't do the whole work. It does not recreate oratab entries (Unix/Linux) or services (Windows). Delete through DBCA will also remove entries from the sqlnet configuration files, RMAN is not aware of this.

  • 10G RAC Database Configuration Querry??

    Hi All,
    I have installed the 10GR3 Grid and deployed the Agent to a system which has 10GR2 RAC Database with CRS installed.
    1) When i try to configure the cluster database, should we use the VIP TNS entries as the Connect string or the Physical Node TNS Address.
    2) After i have configured it i do not see Listener shown for either monitoring nor i am able to add manually.
    3) Will any CRS components be monitored through Grid? For Me i dont find any though the CRS HOME oratab entry is enabled.
    Please share your ideas and experience.. on this..

    Friends,
    OS: RHEL AS 3.0
    DB: Oracle 9iR2
    when ever my rhel server is starting/restarting oracle database is starting up automatically.
    There is no crontab job either in the root user or in the oracle user.
    Also, i checked in the oratab entry that also fine.
    i checked in /etc/rc3.d there also nothing related to oracle.
    what might be the reason?where i have to check for this?
    thanks

    is there any script related to oracle start/stop under /etc/init.d/

  • Database auto-startup script

    Hi Team,
    How can I check whether the auto startup script is scheduled for the database after the server reboot
    OS version:Linux server1 2.6.18-194.11.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue Jul 24 05:45:06 EDT 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
    DB version :11.2.0.2
    /etc/oratab entry is set to Y.
    But the database did not startup after the server reboot. How to verify that the auto startup script is available?

  • Standby database upgrade process

    Hi
    I have a 11gR1 database with dataguard setup.I have successfully upgraded the primary database to 11gR2 using dbua.
    Although 11gR2 software is installed on standby server,I realized archivelogs were not shipped to standby server during the database upgrade.
    When I switch logfile in primary, I see below errors in standby alertlog:
    RFS: 'Attach' request version mismatchWhat is the best way to sort out standby database regarding database upgrade ?
    Do I need to manually add oratab entry, new pfile, etc in standby server ?
    or
    Do I have to rebuild DR ?

    Both primary and standby compatible parameter is 11.1.0.0.0
    However, rman is giving this error:
    rman target sys/sys@orcl auxiliary sys/sys@orcl_std
    Recovery Manager: Release 11.2.0.3.0 - Production on Sun Dec 11 08:53:34 2011

    connected to target database: ORCL (DBID=1297219823)
    Recovery Manager incompatible with AUXILIARY database: RMAN 8.0.4.0 to 11.1.0.7 required
    RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
    RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
    RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
    RMAN-00554: initialization of internal recovery manager package failed
    RMAN-06429: AUXILIARY database is not compatible with this version of RMANLike I said, after the database upgrade pirmary became 11.2.0.3, standby is still 11.1
    I upgraded primary with dbua.
    Do I need to mount standby from new 11.2 home , copy pwd file, add oratab entry etc ?
    These were done automatically on primary via dbua
