Protect single instance linux Oracle 11Gr2 with Clusterware 11Gr2 non-RAC

Hi All,
I saw this link, but it mentions RAC as a solution:
Using Oracle Clusterware to Protect A Single Instance Oracle Database 11g
I have seen various articles about protecting single instance with cold failover using clusterware, but they mention scripts and older versions of Clusterware. I am trying to figure out if possible to incorporate virtual ip's / scan listeners or if this is even a supported configuration...
I have set up clusterware 11gr2 using OCFS2. I basically just want to do a cold failover from one node to the other, and I do not wish to purchase a RAC license...
thanks much

Single instance app with native packaging

Is there any way to allow only one instance of the app to run with javafx2 native packaging? Like an attribute in the build.xml or something?
I'm using the .exe for windows and the .dmg for mac.
Appreciate your help.

There is no simple deployment build switch that I know of for achieving a single instance app.
A couple of ideas (none of which I have tried).
Perhaps you could use the SingleInstanceService:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/java/fxbest-1583679.html "Ensuring Only One Instance of the Application Is Started"
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/javaws/developersguide/examples.html#SingleInstanceService "SingleInstanceService"
It is a jnlp api based service though and I'm not sure if such a service would be available to a packaged app (maybe it would require including the jre/lib/javaws.jar file with your app or something like that).
You could write out a lock file when the app starts.
On unix (i.e. mac/linux) the lock could include the process pid for your app. On startup, check if there is a process with the lock pid currently running, if so, don't startup and perhaps send an interrupt signal to the existing app notifying it that the user tried to start a new instance.
On windows you could read and write the lock value value from the registry.
To get rid of the OS specific stuff surrounding this, perhaps this kind of lock logic could be implemented using the Java Preferences API:
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/preferences/index.html
Intellij Idea is open source and and seems to have this kind of functionality, so you could check how they do it.

Using Timesten with Clusterware

We try to develop new system using Oracle products. Can you answer me some questions - is it possible to use Oracle Timesten with Clusterware? Does it have any sense? So I guess that in this pair TimesTen can't have its advantages. Am I right or not?
Message was edited by:
user616685

One little addition here, please: Oracle internally we try to make Oracle Clusterware the standard Cluster HA solution for all Oracle applications. One result of those efforts is the "Siebel CRM Applications protected by Oracle Clusterware" TWP that was published recently.
Currently, we are working on more cases like this (each of them takes some testing effort). One of them is Times Ten. Concluding, yes, there are scenarios in which Clusterware can make Times Ten more available, as mentioned before.
However, I would be more interested in the scenarios you would like to cover!? Having a Cluster HA solution does not mean that any HA requirement is covered automatically. Therefore, could you provide more information about your environment and what you try to establish?
Thanks.

Hosting two portals on a single instance of enterprise portal server

Hi,
We have a requirement to host two different portals on a single instance of enterprise portal server. The URLs to the portals would be different. Also for logging into the portal, one portal would have only User ID and Password and
the other may have Retailer ID, User ID and Password for logging.
I am trying to understand what kind of an approach needs to be followed. There
is a single instance of Oracle server where PCD is stored.
How will authentication/authorization happen and how would the user data be stored for both the portals in a single instance of Oracle database.
Thanking you in advance,
Regards,
Veena

Hi,
in general, could do that by using a distinct role concept. With the "Collection of base rules" you can assign different portal desktops with different layouts to everyone based on criterias like groups, roles or users.
We have 4 very different portals running inside one instance. Every portal has its own standardized structure and is selected by logon groups, that points to roles, which points to desktops.
What will not work is a logon concept other than "userid, password". SAP, by default. only allows standard authentication with userid and password or ticket. Even if you use an LDAP that would have that distinction, you cannot query that property without modifying the system
If you want to use anything different, you have to write a new logon handler for the logon stack (using JAAS). This is tricky, but not outrageous difficult. We have implemented three different new steps in the logion stack, each handles a different case, from ip-based logon, ticket or LDAP query. It is possibly, all of them don't have more than 20 lines of java.
But, still tricky.
It is a broad theme and you can try it out with showcasing two different desktop themes belonging to two different roles. Than you can work your way through tge problems.
In terms of database, it makes no distinction. You work solely with the PCD, and that is stored in the database. We are using DB2 and I've never touched the DB at all.

10.2.0.4 patch on single instance standby database

Hi All,
We have production database 10.2.0.3 running with RAC having 2 nodes on Solaris 10. We have patched this
databases to 10.2.0.4 (both nodes) on production without any issue.
We have a physical standby database (10.2.0.3) with 2 nodes on solaris 10. But we have stopped node2 sometime
back and currently it's a single instance standby database. Whe nwe are trying to apply patch to standby dataabse
it's showing both node during installation and installation fails when it tries to search for node2.
What's the solution for this problem? Any document on how to patch the single instance standby database when
production is running in RAC.

I think you are basically saying that you have a 2 node RAC cluster with 1 node down (possibly permanently) and you want to just patch 1 of the nodes?
It's not overly a surprise the installer is trying to patch the other node, when as far as your inventory is concerned you have a 2 node cluster.
Have you tried running the installer with the -local option?
This should just patch your local node. Obviously the dictionary changes will get applied via MRP from the primary db.

Move single instance db to RAC10g2 - the best choice ?

Hello,
We need to move our old, single instance 10.2 DB to new, two node RAC installation. DB size is about 500GB. What could be a best method for this ?

Option 1) Best method would be using RMAN to take backup from old server and restore it into new server. I'm assuming version of oracle to be same i.e 10.2 and OS is also same.
The effort is required a little bit higher then you do for IMPORT/EXPORT of database using DataPump.
Option 2) Use physical standby database setup if migration time is supposed to be very low. I hope you know how to achieve this
Option 3) Use goldan gate to migrate data from old to new, if migration time is nearly zero.
And ofcourse you would be doing following:
1) Install and configure Cluster
2) Install oracle database software

CloudControl 12c: when adding cluster-database single instances are missing

Hello ,
I'e have installed the agent 12c on every single host of our RAC. When adding a database to CloudControl 12c just the RAC-instance gets discovered - but not the single database instances on each host.
Due to this when clicking targets -> databases I just see the cluster-database - but not every single instance of the database.
Compared to another RAC database this is totally different behaviour.
Any help will be appreciated
Rgds
JH

Hello ,
maybe I should try to explain the issue a little bit clearer...
We have one RAC database called PROD02. When clicking "targets -> databases" I see the following:
PROD02 of type Cluster Database
PROD021 of type Database Instance
PROD022 of type Database Instance
That's the way it shoudl be - that's the way I expected it...
For the newly cofgured RAC database, called PREP02, it looks different when clicking "targets -> databases"
PREP02 of type Cluster Database
The single instances don't show up. Of course I see the single instances when clicking on "PREP02" under the item "Instances".
Now I wonder why these two RAC databases are differently displayed when clicking "targets -> databases". When trying to add the single instances (clicking "Add" under "targets -> databases") and selecting then either "only on the host <hostname>" or "on all hosts in the cluster" no single instances are found or displayed...

Converting Single Instance database into Oracle Fail-Safe on Linux

Hi All,
We have single instance Oracle10g database running on Linux RHEL4. We are looking to convert this database into Oracle Fail-Safe (Active-Passive). Does any one have document for Oracle fail-safe setup?
Regards,
Tushar

Tushar,
you can't use software for windows on Linux.
However, there's number of ways to implement high-availability solution on Linux Oracle.
You can go with Active-Active (RAC) - which means that you'll have two servers attached to the same database at the same time. You can use either, and if one goes down(due to power failure for instance), the second will still be available.
You can go with Active-Passive (Data Guard) - which means that you'll have one of the nodes being active and the second passive, but synchronized with the first one, so in case of failure of the first node you can activate the second one.
You can also go with linux clustering - which is most similar to MCS + fail-safe - you'll have two nodes clustered with linux clustering software (RH cluseter suite for instance) and connected to shared storage. One node is active, and in case of crash database instance will be automatically started on the second node. This is beneficial because you can use your resources more efficiently. In case if you have two databases you can run each of them on dedicated server and then, in case of node failure move to another one. However, the setup of such configuration is quite cumbersome.

Oracle single instance 10.2.0.4 on AIX 5.3 with GPFS

Hi there,
Is there anybody ever that has been used oracle SINGLE instance with only all data files & its archival on AIX GPFS filesystem ? I am currently supporting on this environment, and would like to know whether there is any concern or issue.
Thank you,

Pl post details of exact versions of OS and database. By "SINGLE", do you mean a non-RAC database ? I believe it is supported - more details in MOS Doc 282036.1 (Minimum Software Versions and Patches Required to Support Oracle Products on IBM Power Systems)
