RAC ASM instance creation

Can we configure ASM instance on all nodes in RAC at the same time?

Thanks for your reply.
Do we have centralized ASM instance for all nodes?
If yes does it should be created on shared device or something else???Normally database will reside in SHARED STORAGE and ASM & RBDMS instances willbe in stand alone systems..
ASM diskgorup will be sharable to all the instances... not the instance can be sharable
Hope you understood.
Thanks

ASM Instance Creation

Hi,
I need to just create a new ASM instance on solaris without RAC,can anyone share docs of what are the pre-reuquiite and the details of creation of ASM Instance.
Regards,
Hussain

The ASM OS prereqs are the same as the DB prereqs - e.g kernel parameters, OS packages.
Really difficult to give advice if you won't say what version of the OS, what version of the database, what storage etc.
Some basic docs here :-

Error at ASM instance creation - PRKS-1009

Hello all,
I am in the process of creating a 2 Node RAC database, on VMWare.
OS - RHEL 4 Oracle 10g
I have successfully installed the cluster. After this i was in the process of installing Oracle 10g Binaries.. which installed almost fine, until the time when i had to setup ASM storage options in the DBCA.
Unfortunately, my bad luck the computer rebooted after an automatic (windows update) *Remember i am using RHEL on VMWare server).
I had to unintall the binaries using the Oracle GUI... after that i removed all the files from db_1 folder.
I re-initiated the process of installing the db binaries, until the time i came to the asm option, there i got a prompt asking me to re-create the asm instance, which for which i clicked ok... here.. i got an error.
PRKS-1009 Failed to start ASM Instance "+ASM2" on node "rac2".
[CRS-1028: Dependency analysis failed because of.
[CRS-0233: Resource 'ora.rac2.ASM2.asm' has placement error.
There is one more issue i have, i am unable to use crs_stat command, each time it throws an error saying crs_stat command not found!!
Please guide...

Hello all,
I have managed to solve this problem.
The asm instances were running in the background even after uninstalling the binaries.
I removed the asm instances.
before that i stopped the asm instances.
/crs_stat -t
Stop instance name
crs_stop <output from crs_stat> asm 1
crs_stop <output from crs_stat> asm 2
srvctl remove asm -n rac1 -i +ASM1 -f
srvctl remove asm -n rac2 -i +ASM1 -f
then re-create the asm instance
Thanks!!

Convert ASM single instance to RAC ASM instance...

Hi, all
Im installing OracleDatabase with RAC and I got an error on the Database Configuration Assistant that says "The ASM instance configured on the local node is a single instance. To manage this instance as a single-instance ASM restart DBCA and select the single instance database option. To manage this instance as RAC ASM, convert it to RAC ASM first".
How I can convert it??
Thanks

See the link below for converting a single instance ASM to RAC ASM. The link is to the Oracle® Database Oracle Clusterware and Oracle Real Application Clusters Installation Guide for Linux. If your platform is not Linux, check the Install Guide for your OS.

Hi,
I believe your OCR is corrupted....so restore the OCR from most recent backup (before error ).
Using crs_* commands on resources with the prefix ora.* (resources provided by Oracle) remains unsupported.
After restore OCR... remove ASM with "srvctl" command:

ASM instance deletion and converting to RAC

My RAC setup is little complex, i created 2 RAC servers, after that i created 2 new RAC servers, but the shared disk is same, in old RAC i created RAC ASM, which is running fine, in new i make want to create new RAC ASM instance, but when i got to dbca ASM instance page, its seeing all the old ASM Diskgroups. I created ASM single instance , at new 403 box now i want to delete this to convert it to RAC ASM. How i should proceed, So that my old RAC ASM should not be effected,

Hi;
To create ASM instance you should have OS authentication enabled. To connect as user with SYSASM system privilege refer installation guide on how to enable OS athentication for SYSASMDid you check installation guide for this error, it refers to guide.
Also check [this site|http://neworacledba.blogspot.com/2008/05/sysasm-privilege-for-asm.html] and if its not help try [this search|http://www.google.com.tr/search?hl=tr&source=hp&q=how+to+enable+OS+athentication+for+SYSASM&meta=&aq=f&oq=]
Hope it helps

Single-Instance ASM to RAC ASM !!

At the moment i am in process to create a RAC ASM instance on two nodes. When i was creating ASM instance it gave me error that unable to connect to crsd on Node2.
So i manually added asm instance using srvctl on node2. It is registered with CRS but it is not online. I tried starting up by using crs_start or srvctl start asm but asm resource is down on both the nodes.
I have started up manually both the ASM instance and created some Diskgroups, Now i have to create a RAC enabled DB for which it is showing convert single-instance ASM to RAC ASM.
What needs to be done.

Hi
because the service ASM was added individually the crs stack is unable to recognise the clustering of ASM. In fact this has just made the ASM on two nodes function as two seperate ASM instances. They were never clustered. So i think convertion is one option. I came here while looking for one such doc. My 10.2.0.1 RAC install on windows 2003 went on a toss.. while dbca was trying to set up the clustered ASM and configure the instance, the primary node crashed and when it was recovered, i could notice the ASM instance is created on one node only.. When i try to invoke dbca again, neither am allowed to create an ASM instance for RAC/convert the existing one to RAC. Until now what I have found is that if such case arise, the quicker way is to revert everything back, clean up the server of clusterware and re install every thing... but before am looking for my options..
does any body have an idea? please share
sarat.

Trying to create ASM instance, thinks one already exists?

I've got a problem with creating the ASM instance. Basically, I've reinstalled (v11.1.0.6) clusterware, and two database software installs (one for asm, one for db) due to a san swap. Now, I believe that there is still a hangover to the original installation. When creating the ASM instance through DBCA on Windows, I get the following:
DBCA could not startup the ASM instance configured on this node. To proceed with ASM diskgroup management you need the ASM instance to be up and running. Do you want to recreate the ASM instance on this node?
Yes
Enter password
DBCA will now create and start the ASM instance. After the ASM instance is started, you can create disk groups to be used as storage for your database.
OK
ASM Instance Creation...
Encountered file error when copying listeners from home=D:\oracle\product\11.1.0\asm_2
OK
The operation will be stopped. Re-run DBCA after successfully running NetCA.
I have a listener running (listener_rac), I have a similar problem with netca as it says I already have a listener called listener, which I do not, however, I have created listener_rac instead.
I feel trhat the problem is that ASM1 (for node 1) or ASM2 (for node 2) already exists. However, I can not find either of these. I can create an ASM instance in single node mode, however, this creates an instance +ASM, which does not conflict.
How do I find the non-existent instance, and remove it? (not in registry or services)
Alternatively, any other ideas as to what is happening?
Thank you for your time.

I have a listener running (listener_rac), I have a similar problem with netca as it says I already have a listener called listener, which I do not, however, I have created listener_rac insteadDBCA created your listener... you can check on listener status
srvctl status nodeapps -n node01
Listener is running on node: node01
srvctl status nodeapps -n node02
Listener is running on node: node02
if not start, start it by
Usage: srvctl start listener -n <node_name> [-l <lsnr_name_list>]
srvctl start listener -n node01
by the way, you cam use "netca" delete/recreate (listener_rac)
After that, point to ASM:
I feel trhat the problem is that ASM1 (for node 1) or ASM2 (for node 2) already exists. However, I can not find either of these. What did you see?
crs_stat
srvctl status asm -n node01
srvctl status asm -n node02
if you see asm on node01/node2... you can start them if thet offline
srvctl start asm -n node01
srvctl start asm -n node02
and then.. use "DBCA" to help create ASM diskgroups.
I can create an ASM instance in single node mode, however, this creates an instance +ASM, which does not conflict.that can conflict.. don't start it (+ASM)
How do I find the non-existent instance, and remove it? (not in registry or services)
Alternatively, any other ideas as to what is happening?use "crs_stat" command
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/rac.111/b28255/crsref.htm#CWADD6025
and use "srvctl"

How do we clone a database from RAC/ASM to RAC/ASM?

Is there a best practice or recommended recipe for cloning from a RAC/ASM instance to another RAC/ASM instance? We've done single instance cloning in the past with RMAN and it looks like grid control does something similar -- until we try to clone from one Exadata cluster to another. Surely this is now a common procedure...?
much thanks,
Gary

Hi,
I would not use cloning with 11.2. anymore.
Though this will work (you have to take care of copying some more stuff though, like the gpnp profile), simply using the "addnode.sh" which works in silent mode in 11.2. is a lot easier.
Re: Any issues to add 3rd node to 11gr2 grid with 11.2.0.2 and 10.2.0.4 homes?

ASM instances on 2 node Oracle RAC 10g r2 on Red Hat 4 u1

Hi all
I'm experiencing a problem in configuring diskgroups under +ASM instances on a two node Oracle RAC.
I followed the official guide and also official documents from metalink site, but i'm stuck with the visibility of asm disks.
I created fake disks on nfs with Netapp certified storage binding them to block device with the usual trick "losetup /dev/loopX /nfs/disk1 " ,
run "oracleasm createdisk DISKX /dev/loopX" on one node and
"oracleasm scandisks" on the other one.
With "oracleasm listdisks" i can see the disks at OS level in both nodes , but , when i try to create and mount diskgroup in the ASM instances , on the instance on which i create the diskgroup all is well, but the other one doesn't see the disks at all, and diskgroup mount fails with :
ERROR: no PST quorum in group 1: required 2, found 0
Tue Sep 20 16:22:32 2005
NOTE: cache dismounting group 1/0x6F88595E (DG1)
NOTE: dbwr not being msg'd to dismount
ERROR: diskgroup DG1 was not mounted
any help would be appreciated
thanks a lot.

Yes you are right , I have to make to sure stock budget doesn't get credited.
If you remember in one of my other threads, i wanted to derive commitment item from Matl grp, it was for this purpose. I will derive commitment through matl group at the time of procurement / GR etc and assign a dummy commitment item to stock a/cs. Where as i will derive a consumption commiment item from consumption GLs.
Thank you

Asm, instance and service failing to start 10g rac redhat el5

Shutting down ASM instance in 11.2 RAC

DB version : 11.2.0.2
Platform : Solaris 10 / AIX 6.1
2-node RAC
Since OCR and Voting Disks are stored in ASM Diskgroups (11.2) , is it OK to shutdown ASM instance in any or both of the nodes ? ie.
Will CRS in a node go down if you shutdown ASM instance in that Node ?

Will CRS in a node go down if you shutdown ASM instance in that Node ?Yes. You will have to first stop the Oracle Clusterware stack on the node on which you need to stop the Oracle ASM instance.
Either use "crsctl stop cluster -n node_name" or "crsctl stop crs" for this purpose.
Since you are using OCR and VOTING DISK on ASM, it's not possible stop only ASM and keep cluster running.

Configure ASM Instance in RAC cluster - problem

Linux RH4 with Oracle 11.1.0.6
I previously had ASM working in a RAC environment, but have uninstalled on all 3 nodes following Oracle guidelines.
When I attempt to re-configure ASM it states that an ASM instance is located in nodes 2 and 3. Previous ASM software has been removed, and there are no entries in the /etc/oratab files on any of the nodes.
How do I locate and then remove these instances on nodes 2 and 3
Thanks

Steps in Note 311350.1 have been followed, and there are no occurances of ASM appearing in the crs_stat output. Also the fact that the ASM software has also been removed from all of the various, where are these ASM instances being started?
I am unable to proceed past the "Select Configuration Screen" which gives you the option to 1)Create Database, 2)Configure ASM or 3) Install Software only.
When I select option 2 and enter ASM SYS password, I get the error message that ASM instances are present in the other nodes.
Would appreciate any help in how I can progress past this stage.
Thanks

Rename asm instance in RAC

Hello,

I need to rename one of the ASM instances
How can this be done ?
the situation is as follows , I needed to take one of the server out of the cluster and then bring him back in .
when I have added him , he got a new ASM instance name (was ASM1 now it got ASM3 , 2 node rac) ,
thanks
