OWB paris install on 10g rel1 RAC cluster

We are trying to install OWB paris on our 10.1.0.4 RAC cluster using OCFS. When launching OUI without setting oracle home the OUI prompts to install on both nodes, the install fails because it is trying to use the database oraInventory.
as below
Error in invoking target 'isqlldr' of makefile
'/u01/app/oracle/OraHome_2/rdbms/lib/ins_rdbms.mk'. See
'/u01/app/oracle/oraInventory/logs/installActions2005-07-11_10-28-24AM.log' for details.
Metalink suggested the following:
Note:317510.1
Create a seperate oraInventory folder and oraInst.loc file for OWB and specify the file oraInst.loc as parameter while invoking the installer.
Re-install the OWB in a new ORACLE_HOME i.e altogether in a new location and don't install on top of database ORACLE_HOME.
In addition to new location(ORACLE_HOME), create a new Inventory and inventory location file as follows.
1. Set the new location for installing OWB like
export ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/owb
ensure that the location /u01/app/oracle/product/ exists.
2. Create a diectory oraInventory inside the ORACLE_HOME
3. Create a file oraInst.loc pointing to oraInventory in $ORACLE_HOME by doing:
echo "inventory_loc=$ORACLE_HOME/oraInventory" > oraInst.loc
Note: the directory oraInventory and file oraInst.loc will be present under ORACLE_HOME
4. Invoke the installer by providing the parmater as
./runInstaller -invPtrLoc $ORACLE_HOME/oraInst.loc
When we do this, the OUI does not prompt to install on both nodes.. how can we work around this?, do we have to install owb on each individual node individually?

Hello.
I had the same problem as you did. But i managed to install OWB on both nodes with user equvalents set and by slightly modifying the steps from metalink as follows:
unset ORACLE_HOME (if it is set)
create owb directory
create oraInst.loc in owb
create oraInventory directory in owb
export ORACLE_HOME=/u01........./owb_1
./runInstaller
(note no command line parameters so it picks up the other node)
Basically if you specify the oraInst.loc it goes tot he oraInventory direct instead of doing checks (one of which for the cluster)
Hope this helps.
Thanks

How can i install oracle 10g on linux cluster

Dear all:
please advice How can i install oracle 10g on linux cluster service ..
thanks ,,

Without RAC, you can only have one instance manage the database. One instance = one set of processes communicating via IPC.
Unless you know of a way to have processes use memory-based IPC across nodes, you need to pick a node and install & run the database software on that node.

General Install question - 10g Server location on RAC

Hi,
We are trying to install 10g Server on a 2 node cluster using Sun Solaris 8.
We are using Oracle CRS and this is configured for 2 nodes.
For both nodes to see an 10g server install, do we perform a local install of the server twice on each node, or on a shared disk(raw device)visible to both nodes.
Also, if we then add a new node does the 10g server install propogate to the new node, or do we have to install the 10g server software prior to adding the node to the RAC.
Any help and guidance would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Simon Molloy

Installing Oracle 10g Forms and Reports in Cluster Mode

Dear All,
My OS version is RHEL 4
In our current setup we have oracle 10g database two node cluster and Application Server 10g to node cluster.
Currently our report server has been configured to run in standalone mode
I have been asked to configure oracle 10g forms and report server in cluster mode.
Please provide me with the documentation link to configure oracle 10g reports server in cluster mode.
Thanks and Regards

my main goal is load balancing only
Then what I've done in 2007 might be what you need. In that thread there is a link to Web Cache Administrator's Guide : there you'll find everything you need to configure the web cache as a load balancer, particularly chapter 8 Setup and Configuration.
Anyway, here briefly some configurations : we have two machines, say MachineA and MachineB. The DNS resolves MachineA to a virtual address, which is normally assigned to MachineA; if MachineA crashes, it gets assigned to MachineB.
Users URL looks like this : http://MachineA:<port>/forms/frmservlet?config=<some config>
MachineA's web cache distributes connection requests between MachineA and MachineB.
Of course we're now using 11g as well, but that's another thing.

Hello, it took a little searching, but I found this in a note in the GRID installation guide for Linux/UNIX:
Public IP addresses and virtual IP addresses must be in the same subnet.
In your case, you are using two different subnets for the VIPs.

10g R2 RAC on Solaris 10 error when running root.sh

hi, I am installing Oracle 10g rac on Solaris 10 with two nodes. In the end of the installation of RAC when a run root.sh I get the error bellow.

Failed to upgrade Oracle Cluster Registry configuration

I have done this install using a pair of T2000's and a 65XX SAN. The install doco is not straight forward. I had to compile a number of Metalink notes to eventually get the disk partitions sorted. Of particular help was Note:271621.1.
Since I am not a Solaris admin, the next bit is caveated as "This is how I did it" and maybe not how anyone else would have done it. These things were not explicitly noted, but gleaned through a bit of reading:
1) you need to throw away the first cylinder of each LUN. I did this by creating the first partition as a single cylinder.
2)then create s4 (or whichever slice you desire) as the rest of the space allocated to that LUN.
3) Repeat this for each LUN presented
4) I created a directory /san under which I then created the character mode (raw) interface for each of ocr, vote.
5) For asm, and for no other reason than being self documenting, I created /san/asm and created character mode interfaces to each of the LUN's for datadg and fradg
6) repeat steps 1-5 on the other box
I took quite some time (2 days) to extract all this and assemble it to a working system. But has always been stable.

How to install Oracle 10g with its grid functionality on Linux?

Well, I thought changing the subject line might help to convey the meaning of what I want better. Here's my earlier post from a few hours earlier.
Hi,
I need carry out TPC-C benchmarking test for Oracle 10g (using one, two and four servers; basically using the grid in case of multiple servers). I have installed oracle 10g (with default options) on all the four servers, but beyond that I have no idea as to how can I invoke the grid option in order to carry out the tests-by my statement, I mean do I need to choose grid option while installing Oracle or is it the case that I specify the grid option in the code that I write for carrying out the tests. The OS is LInux (Scientific Linux).
An unrelated problem-one of the servers is 64 bit while others are 32 bit, and proper versions of oracle have been installed. Neglecting the obvious fact that this will make comparisons difficult does anyone anticipate any other problem?
Many Thanks!
Steve
*******************************************************************************************************

Do you think that the installation of RAC can be done
in a week? yes, as long as you know what you are doing and can catch the concept quickly and good at following instructions.
Moreover, we do not have a cluster-all we
have are four servers that are separate. Do you know
if the name Real Application Clusters implies that
the servers have to be in a cluster?
The basic idea of RAC is all these hosts need to share same set of storage. The most popular such storage are SAN and NAS.

10g R2 RAC on Solaris 10 with EMC Storage

We are in the process of setting up 3/4 node RAC with the following components:
Oracle 10g R2 RAC
Oracle Clusterware / Sun Cluster / Veritas Cluster
Sun Solaris 10
EMC storage
ASM/Cluster FS
I would appreciate if some one can through some light on:
* ) Veritas cluster / Sun Cluster is must component or Can I use Oracle clusterware ? what are the advantages and disadvantages of using Oracl clusterware compare with varitas cluster or sun cluster
* ) Is cluster filesystem a compulsory component or Can I use ASM instead of Cluster File system.
* ) If I don't use cluster filesystem where to put CRS repository and voting disk ?
* ) What is best option for Oracle_Home, is it shared oracle home or sepereate oracle_home on each node ?
* ) Are there any known risks invovled in using ASM. How is the I/O performance with ASM on EMC with Solaris ? Are there any best practices
* ) Is GigE okay for interconnect or do I need to go for Infiniband ?
* ) Is there any notes on Best practices for the above components
*) Do I need to consider fail over option for NIC's (interconnect and public), if yes, how to do that ?
*) Are there any other risks do I need to consider ?
Thanks

Hi,
I see lot of good input. I have done few RAC installs on sun/solaris/emc ...
Here are few things to consider.
* ) Veritas cluster / Sun Cluster is must component or Can I use Oracle clusterware ? what are the advantages and disadvantages of using Oracl clusterware compare with varitas cluster or sun cluster
Just stay with Oracle Clusterware. If there are any issues then you only have to deal with one vendor and there will be no finger pointing. In any case Oracle Clusterware is needed even if you install Veritas/Sun.
* ) Is cluster filesystem a compulsory component or Can I use ASM instead of Cluster File system.
For the database you can use ASM. The only time I have considered a cluster filesystem is if external tables were in use.
When you use ASM you need to partition the disk with 1 meg offset or start at cyclinder 1.
* ) If I don't use cluster filesystem where to put CRS repository and voting disk ?
OCR and Voting Disk go on raw devices.
* ) What is best option for Oracle_Home, is it shared oracle home or sepereate oracle_home on each node ?
Install ORACLE_HOME, ASM_HOME and CRS_HOME locally on each server.
* ) Are there any known risks invovled in using ASM. How is the I/O performance with ASM on EMC with Solaris ? Are there any best practices
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/asm/pdf/asm-on-emc-5_3.pdf
We have always installed 2 HBAs and used powerpath.
* ) Is GigE okay for interconnect or do I need to go for Infiniband ?
For a majority of cases gigE is sufficient.
* ) Is there any notes on Best practices for the above components
Have redundancy at each level.
*) Do I need to consider fail over option for NIC's (interconnect and public), if yes, how to do that ?
You can use IPMP. Use large send/receive buffers. Enable Jumbo Frames.
We had to apply some patches.

OWB Paris: Recommend version of the Database

Hello everybody.
I would like to know which version of the database is recomended to be used with OWB Paris. We want to use the module of this tool that allows to audit the data quality and we don't know if it's necessary to install an specific version of the database (10gR2) or it can be used with 9i.
Thanks in advance

What versions of Oracle database can I use with OWB 10gR2 Beta 3?
- Oracle Database 10gR2
- Oracle Database 10gR1 with 10.1.0.4 patchset applied.
- Oracle9i Database (9.2). Note that some OWB features are only supported on Oracle Database 10g, as detailed in the Release Notes. Oracle Database 10gR1 is strongly recommended for OWB Paris Beta.

SOA with Oracle 2 node RAC cluster

Hi All,
Just a simple doubt, I have successfully installed and configured SOA suite 11.1.1.3 & BAM in one wls Domain 10.3.3 in a linux box and could access all the application like BAM console, BPEL console etc .... also could see all my data-sources deployed in the Data Sources with a single node database.
1. Now I have to RE-configure this whole SOA suite with RAC (2 node database cluster) what changes or configuration needed to implement SOA suite with RAC database?
2. Do I need to create a "Multi Data Source" to configure RAC with SOA suite..?
Thanks
