RAC 10g
Dear All,
I am trying to find out any document regarding Step-By-Step Installation of RAC 10g with OCFS on Windows.
I appreciate if anyone can help on this.
Best regards,
Wessam
10g RAC installation guide for Windows is:
http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/install.102/b14207/toc.htm
And David is right, OCFS is supported on Windows:

So, please help me fix this issue
Thank youI had this problem and resolved it by transporting the file to the installation server with the correct ftp datatype (binary).
On page 54 of the install guide (..Server\Oracle_Business_Intelligence\doc\doc\bi.1013\b31765.pdf) that comes with the installation files, there is an instruction to make sure that any ftp activity is done in binary.
This may not have occured with the license.xml file if you use a tool which offers the "feature" of automatic datatype recognition.
Hope this helps. -
Error when adding a new node to RAC 10g
Hi all,
I have a RAC 10g environment test in Linux Red Hat Umbreakble 5 with two nodes. This RAC is fine on 2 nodes.
I want to add a new node (rac3) of the following way:
- The node 1 (rac1) is started and the instance ORCL1 is online.
- The node 2 (rac2) is offline. i.e the machine is off.
- The node 3 (rac3). The machine is on and already configured
So that when I execute the CRS_home\oui\bin\addnode.bat on node 1 and put the information of node 3 (Public node name, Private node name, Virtual host name) and press next I get the following message:
OUI-35000: Fatal cluster error encountered (PRKC-1071 Nodes rac2 did not respond to ping in 30 seconds) - Sure: The machine is off;
My question is: Can´t I add a new node on RAC if a node is off ?
Anybody can help me.
Thanks.
(Wander Brazil)Interesting question.
You might have better luck getting an answer if you ask where people discuss RAC, instead of asking where people report documentation issues. (Go to http://forums.oracle.com and scroll down to 'Grid Computing' to see RAC forums.) -
Hi all,
I have installed Oracle RAC 10g R2 on RHEL 5.5. I followed this document.

Edited by: user13405005 on Aug 29, 2011 11:40 PMHi,
don't worry about GSD. GSD is only used if you also run 9i databases in the cluster. Even though it should state as OFFLINE (not as unknown), I would not care about that.
However ONS should not be in the status UNKNOWN.
Can you do the following:
srvctl start nodeapps -n
To restart the ONS and see if it stays.
Also post the output on onsctl debug
(All from CRS Home).

Edited by: user12924280 on Apr 6, 2013 12:36 AMSince you didn't say "thank you", I assumed my time was of no value to you.
However, I shall try again.
There is no relationship between instance failure and VIP failover. How can there be? What if you are running ten instances on each node, and one fails? Would you want the VIP to relocate? And I've already told you how to test it: kill the node. Just reboot it. -

Hi all,
I goint to upgrade oracle rac 10g r2 10.2.0.3 to 10.2.0.4 on Solaris 9, in the README file(patchset) does not say that upgrade the OCR, but int he Doc ID 316889.1 to say; it is necessary to upgrade or nothing happens if Iit does not upgrade?

Solaris x86 with Oracle RAC 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.3.0
Hello,
Maybe you can help me (new on RMAN backup) in doing this.
I have configured a single Oracle 10g database to have backup with RMAN with following steps:
1. $ mkdir $ORACLE_BASE/rman_scripts
2. $ mkdir $ORACLE_BASE/logs
3. $ mkdir $ORACLE_BASE/tracking
4. $ mkdir $ORACLE_BASE/c_backup
5. $ sqlplus sys/<password> as sysdba
6. SQL> alter system set db_recovery_file_dest_size = 50G scope=both;
7. SQL> alter system set db_recovery_file_dest='${ ORACLE_BASE}/flash_recovery_ area' scope=both;
8. SQL> alter system set log_archive_dest_10='location= use_db_recovery_file_dest';
9. SQL> shutdown immediate
10. SQL> startup nomount
11. SQL> alter database archivelog;
12. SQL> alter database open;
13. SQL> alter database enable block change tracking using file '${ORACLE_BASE}/tracking/rman_ change_track.f';
14. $ rman target /
15. RMAN> CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK
TO '/var/opt/oracle/flash_ recovery_area/ORCL/c_backup/% F';
16. RMAN> CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
17. RMAN> CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION ON;
18. RMAN> CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 7 DAYS;
19. RMAN> exit
I need to configure incremental backup with RMAN on a two node Solaris x86 with Oracle RAC 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.3.0 installation.
We also use ASM to store database files, and have Oracle software installed on separate file systems (two Oracle roots for Node1 and Node2).
I have following questions:
1) where to put Flash Recovery Area (FRA)?
I saw recommendations to put FRA on the ASM, is this the best way to do it?
2) Can I put FRA on another file system (not on the ASM) which is available only from Node1? This way I can save space on the ASM.
3) Is it possible/recommended to run RMAN from Node1 only?
Below is the script used to run RMAN on the normal Oracle database (without RAC) which I need to change :
=============================================================================================
2.0 Oracle backup script: /opt/app/oracle/rman_scripts/backup.sh
Use this for daily backups, possiblly as a cron job.
Once a week run this: /opt/app/oracle/rman_scripts/backup.sh FULL
All other days of the week: /opt/app/oracle/rman_scripts/backup.sh INCREMENTAL
Note: You may have to change ORACLE_SID, ORACLE_BASE below to match your database.
=============================================================================================
#!/usr/bin/ksh
ORACLE_SID=orcl
ORACLE_BASE=/opt/app/oracle
ORACLE_HOME=${ORACLE_BASE}/product/10.2.0/db_1
PATH=${ORACLE_HOME}/bin:/usr/bin
LOGDIR=${ORACLE_BASE}/logs
LOGFILE=${LOGDIR}/rman.log
if [[ $# < 1 ]]
then
echo "usage: backup.sh FULL|INCREMENTAL"
exit;
fi
BACKUPTYPE=${1}
full='FULL'
incremental='INCREMENTAL'
if [[ $BACKUPTYPE == $full ]]
then
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/rman target / nocatalog log ${LOGFILE} append << eof
run {
backup database;
SQL 'alter system archive log current';
backup archivelog all;
delete noprompt obsolete;
exit;
eof
echo ''
fi
if [[ $BACKUPTYPE == $incremental ]]
then
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/rman target / nocatalog log ${LOGFILE} append << eof
run {
backup database;
backup incremental level 1 database;
SQL 'alter system archive log current';
backup archivelog all;
delete noprompt obsolete;
exit;
eof
echo ''
fiHi [email protected],
Q1) where to put Flash Recovery Area (FRA)?
A1) With RAC: on the shared storage
I saw recommendations to put FRA on the ASM, is this the best way to do it?
If you want your backups to be available for both nodes you have to use shared storage or tape using an mml library.
So if you want to use the FRA for rman backups and the database is on ASM just make ASM the standard for the FRA as well.
Q2) Can I put FRA on another file system (not on the ASM) which is available only from Node1? This way I can save space on the ASM.
A2) Than you cannot recover in case Node1 is down. Best would be to send your storage admin to a training course so he can manage the clustered raw devices needed for ASM.
Q3) Is it possible/recommended to run RMAN from Node1 only?
A3) No see A2.

Oracle RAC 10g on Solaris 10 in a non-global zone
I need to run Oracle RAC 10g on Solaris 10 in a non-global zone as I must cap the CPUs used for Oracle licensing limitations. My question is a simple one, but one for which I'm getting conflicting information depending upon whom I ask.
If I want to run RAC in a non-global zone on two nodes, does this require the use of Solaris Cluster?
I know there are good reasons to use Solaris Cluster, but the company for which I work cannot afford the additional expense of Solaris Cluster at this time. Is it possible to run Oracle RAC 10g in a capped container without Solaris Cluster or is Solaris Cluster absolutely required?
Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide.AFAIK, Oracle 10g RAC is not supported in solaris containers.
It is however supported in Solaris zone clusters...in order to use it, you would have to use Sun Cluster 3.2 (iinm). -

Which file decide instance name in RAC 10g ?
Which file decide instance name in RAC 10g ?
How does RAC know which instance should start from which machine?
Thanks.The spfile is NOT the correct answer, actually.
1. The instance name for any Oracle instance, whether in a RAC or not, is derived from the value for the ORACLE_SID parameter which is in force at the time the startup command is issued. If you were to:
export ORACLE_SID=SALES
sqlplus / as sysdba
startup...you would just have created an instance called SALES.
2. The spfile (or init.ora if you're not using an spfile) contains a parameter called INSTANCE_NAME. That defaults to whatever ORACLE_SID is set to as an environment variable when the instance is started, hence point 1 above. But you can force an instance to acquire a non-SID name by deliberately setting it to something different. That's unusual to do, though, except in a RAC context where you want to subvert the default load balancing mechanism.
2b. The spfile (or init.ora) also contains a parameter called DB_NAME -but that is the name of the database, not the name of the instance, and is therefore irrelevant for the purposes of working out how instances get their names,
3. Neither of the above answers has got anything to do with RAC knowing what instance runs on which machine. That is the job of the Oracle Cluster Registry file (OCR), for which you have to provide about 100MB of space on a shared hard drive during the RAC installation itself.
You populate that file by running DBCA to create your RAC instances (and DBCA then automatically updates the OCR to record the fact that it created instance X1 on Node A and X2 on Node B, and therefore that's what will happen in the future unless you change things).
Or you can update the OCR yourself by using the SRVCTL utility. You'd do something like: srvctl add instance -d DB1 -i X3 -n C (add an instance called X3 to run on Node C as part of database DB1).
A little more details about the OCR is available in Section 13 of this article, for example: http://www.dizwell.com/prod/node/26?page=0%2C5 -
Do we need to install microsoft cluster software for RAC 10G
Hi all,
Our company wants to install ORACLE 10G RAC on windows 2003 R2. Based on the pre-requisites I asked network guys to provide me the shared disk storage from SAN, but they insist that this storage will not be accessible until we have windows clustering software running on top of the two nodes. I want to use oracle clusterware for clustering.
Please let me know how does it work. Do i need to have windows cluster s/w first then install oracle clusterware on these nodes.
Help is as always appreciated
Regards
AijazHi Aijaz,
You don't need any clusterware beyond Oracle clustware, but if is a requirement to your company you can use another Clusterware to install RAC, if they are supported, check on metalink. The Clusterware from Oracle provide all you need to deploy a Real Application Cluster production environment.
With additional documentation, take a look on http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/install.102/b14207/intro.htm#sthref21 for explain more about Oracle Clusteware

Compatibility with Oracle RAC 10g and E-business 11i ?
Hi netpros,
I am currently helping the sales guys with a tender. The customer requires the solution to be compatible for delivering Oracle RAC 10g and e-business 11i. we are proposing a combination of Cat6509E for the core with Infiniband server switches. Are these devices OK for use with Oracle. I have not much experience with Data centers and so any help is much appreciated.Hi,
It just so happens Cisco have a paper on exactly this subject (Oracle and e-business 11i) here:
http://www.cisco.com/application/pdf/en/us/guest/netsol/ns50/c649/ccmigration_09186a00807688ce.pdf
The design is somewhat OTT as it includes everything which Cisco thinks may be even vaguely useful, including ACE and FWSM modules. However, it's very useful as a comparison document and does include some good design tips, and the references at the end are also worth following up.
I wouldn't want to get into the whole Infiniband vs Fiber Channel argument (the doc uses MDS switches) but both work just fine in the DC environment.
HTH
Andrew.
