RAC problem..

My database is running in oracle 10g RAC,today I lost spfile of one machine running the one node of cluster now that node in not starting up,I have no backup of that spfile or pfile or alert log file.plz tell me what should I do to up the node of that cluster

It may take some work but copy the spfile from one node to a pfile. Then edit the file as needed (be very careful here). Now startup the instance using the pfile and copy it back to spfile.
I suggest taking a backup of your spfile more often. :)

  • Installing Oracle RAC problem: Could not determine /tmp mount point

    Folks,
    Hello. I am installing Oracle 11gR2 RAC using 2 Virtual Machines (rac1 and rac2 whose OS are Oracle Linux 5.6) in VMPlayer and according to the tutorial
    http://appsdbaworkshop.blogspot.com/2011/10/11gr2-rac-on-linux-56-using-vmware.html
    I am installing Grid infrastructure. I am on step 7 of 10 (verify Grid installation enviroment) and get this error:
    "Free Space: Rac2: /tmp"
    Cause: Could not determine mount point for location specified.
    Action: Ensure location specified is available.
    Expected value: n/a
    Actual value: n/a
    I have checked the free space using the command:
    [root@Rac2 /]# df -k /tmp
    Output:
    Filesystem     1k-blocks     used     Available     Use%     Mounted on
    /dev/sda1     30470144     7826952     21070432     28%     /
    As you see above, the free space is enough, but could not determine mount point for /tmp.
    Do any folks understand how to determine the mount point for directory /tmp ?
    Thanks.

    Folks,
    Hello. I have found the file ./bash_profile under /home/ora11g/ and the file is invisible. However, I edit the file using the command:
    [ora11g@Rac2 ~]$ vi /home/ora11g/.bash_profile
    I add the 2 lines into the file as below:
    TMP=/tmp; export TMP
    TMPDIR=$TMP; export TMPDIR
    I save the file .bash_profile and reboot Oracle Linux 5.6 and check again on step 7 of 10 in the Installer, but the problem is still not solved.
    Can any folk help to solve the strange problem "could not determine mount point for /tmp" ?
    Thanks.

  • Oracle RAC Problem

    I have a problem when i try to install oracle RAC on 2 x86 solaris machines
    when i run the script :
    ./clusvfy to check the two nodes ... i got an error message that says :
    USER EQUIVELANCE UNAVAILABLE ON ALL THE NODES
    if anyone could help me i would be grateful

    Yes you can, but I would strongly suggest using ssh with private key files, very easy to set up hundreds of guides out there here is a nice short one:
    http://blogs.translucentcode.org/mick/archives/000230.html
    If you still want to use rsh then use google but it is a similar set up to ssh and using ssh wont send your password over the network in clear text.

  • Oracle 11gR2 RAC problem with resource state

    Hi all,
    I installed Oracle 11gR2 grid infrastructure with 2 nodes and I installed DB 11gR2.
    S.O: HP-UX
    I actived both DB instance in each node.
    For an hardware problem node 1 become unstable (continuos auto reboot).
    I found that the problem was RAM.
    However I note that database resource is in a particular state and i don't able to reset it.
    Performing command crsctl status resource ora.orcl.db this is the result
    ora.orcl.db
    1 OFFLINE UNKNOWN node1 Startup Initiated
    2 ONLINE ONLINE node2 Open
    That UNKNOWN state is really abstruse.
    I tryed to perform crsctl stop resource ora.orcl.db -n node1 and the result is

    CRS-2662: Resource 'ora.orcl.db' is disabled on server 'node1'
    CRS-4000: Command Start failed, or completed with errors.
    How do I do to reset that UNKNOWN state?
    Thanks in advance.
    Bye
    Alessandro

    I tryed srvctl enable instance -d orcl -i ORCL_1
    but the results is
    srvctl enable instance command is not supported for configuration using server pool.
    I tryed to delete service ora.orcl.db and recreate it.
    Now I have
    NAME=ora.orcl.db
    TYPE=ora.database.type
    TARGET=ONLINE , ONLINE
    STATE=UNKNOWN on node1, OFFLINE
    So Targets are both ONLINE, but if I write crsctl start resource ora.orcl.db

  • Installing Oracle 11gR2 RAC Problem: ASM disks

    Folks,
    Hello. I am installing Oracle 11gR2 RAC using 2 Virtual Machines (rac1 and rac2 whose OS are Oracle Linux 5.6) in VMPlayer and according to the tutorial
    http://appsdbaworkshop.blogspot.com/2011/10/11gr2-rac-on-linux-56-using-vmware.html
    At the first time, I create VM rac1. While its OS Oracle Linux 5.6 is booting, initializing ASMLib Driver OK. I create 5 ASM disks successfully using the command:
    [root@rac1 /]# /etc/init.d/oracleasm createdisk ASMDISK1 /dev/sdb1
    Output: Marking disk "ASMDISK1" as an ASM disk: OK
    Because the hard disk space of rac1 is not enough to install Database, I create VM rac1 again with bigger hard disk space (30GB). I do everything the same with that at the first time. But this time, While OS Oracle Linux 5.6 is booting, initializing ASMLib Driver failed. I create 5 ASM disks using the same command:
    [root@rac1 /]# /etc/init.d/oracleasm createdisk ASMDISK1 /dev/sdb1
    Output: Marking disk "ASMDISK1" as an ASM disk: failed
    But when I use the command:
    [root@rac1 /]# /etc/init.d/oracleasm listdisks
    Output: ASMDISK1 ASMDISK2 ASMDISK3 ASMDISK4 ASMDISK5
    My questions are:
    First, can the 5 disks "ASMDISK1 ASMDISK2 ASMDISK3 ASMDISK4 ASMDISK5" be used correctly in spite of Marking disk "ASMDISK1(2 3 4 5)" as an ASM disk failed ?
    Second, how to fix OS Oracle Linux 5.6 so that initializing ASMLib Driver OK while booting ?
    Thanks.

  • Installing RAC Problem: Oracle Clusterware 10g is present on remote node

    Folks,
    Hello.
    I am installing Oracle 11gR2 RAC using 2 Virtual Machines (rac1 and rac2 whose OS are Oracle Linux 5.6) in VMPlayer.
    I have been installing Grid Infrastructure using runInstaller in the first VM rac1 from step 1 to step 9 of 10.
    On the step 9 of 10 in the Wizard, accidentally, I touch the Mouse, and the Wizard is gone.
    The directory for installing Grid in the 2 VMs is the same: /u01
    In order to make sure everything is correct, I delete entire directory /u01 in the 2 VMs and install Grid in rac1 again.
    But get the error message as follows:
    [INS-40915] The Installer has detected the presence of Oracle Clusterware 10g on the remote node rac2.localdomain.
    Cause: Oracle Clusterware 10g is present on remote node rac2.localdomain but not on the local node.
    Action: To upgrade the Oracle Clusterware 10g Installation to this release, run Installer on a node where Oracle Clusterware 10 installation is located. To create a new cluster, choose a set of nodes that are not part of an existing cluster.
    Regarding the above error message, I do not install any Oracle Clusterware 10g in rac2 because it's the first time when I install Grid using rac1 and rac2.
    My question is:
    Do any folk understand how to remove something in rac2 to solve the above issue so that I can install Grid again ?
    Thanks.

    Folks,
    Hello. Thanks a lot for replying.
    The tutorial http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e22489/rem_orcl.htm#CBHEFHAC is about the regular procedure to deinstall Grid Clusterware and Database.
    I have just installed Grid and have not installed the Database. I have removed ORACLE HOME /u01 completely in both VMs. There is no way to follow the regular procedure to deinstall at this time.
    I do not install any Oracle Clusterware 10g in the VM rac2 because it's the first time when I install Grid using VM rac1 and rac2.
    When install Grid again. I get the error message:
    "[INS-40915] The Installer has detected the presence of Oracle Clusterware 10g on the remote node rac2.localdomain."
    This is strange! It seems that we need to remove some files in the VM rac2 like /etc/oracle that I am not sure.
    My questions are:
    First, where is 10g directory to remove ?
    Second, what files left on the system to clean up ?
    Third, what does " Follow 239998.1" means regarding asanqa's replying to me ?
    Thanks.

  • Installing RAC on External Network Attached Storage

    Is it possible to use External Network Attached Storage device to install Oracle RAC?
    It is much cheapter than to buy SAN or other devices.. All I am thinking it buying a External NAS enclosure and put a couple of hard disks in it and use it as NAS to store RAC database..
    any suggestions?
    Thanks
    Data Sheet

    Since you only want to learn ... Google for RAC SCSI or RAC Firewire
    Based on my experience, my suggestions and observations around RAC are simple
    1) Go straight to 10g, do not bother with 9i;
    2) If you are a competent Oracle10g DBA, RAC knowledge is a mininal upgrade in effort;
    3) 99.9% of the 'RAC problem' is from the hardware configuration.
    I find that the RAC configuration issues are different for each operating system and storage subsystem combination I seen, and they have almost nothing to do with RAC. They are mainly about system, network and disk administration and making them able to handle a shared disk configuration. Once the stable shared disk configuration is achieved RAC is almost self-installing.
    So, going cheap just to learn RAC is not going to provide much headway in the long run.
    However, being able to say you've seen it is possibly worth while, and that can be accomplished very inexpensively using SCSI or Firewire disks. Do the web search - there are a lot of cookbooks.
    Note though that Jonathan Lewis recently said, and I paraphrase: "A 2-, or even 3- node RAC is not really interesting. 2-node is a boundary condition, and 3 node falls back to boundary condition quickly. Detailed investgation doesn't happen until you have 4 or more nodes." And that requires a real configuration. Which is going to cost.
    And no - I do not know anything about Z-SAN.

  • Problems with MOTU Audio Setup and Mavericks.

    Hi!
    after installing the latest update of MOTU Audio Drivers (v1.6.59200 | Nov. 12, 2013) for some sessions Motu Audio Setup has worked correctly.
    Now, after a week or so, it detects the interfaces (by the way a 828vMk II + 8pre, both FW) when I power them, so it fires up as usual; but when launched is not showing any device connected.
    I tried to thrash the Audio Devices preference panels, but no result.
    Shall I wait for a new MOTU update or is there any other workaround I could try?
    Thanks in advance for help
    Massimo

    I had the same problem. The fix after multiple configurations is as follows.
    1) Reset the PRAM and shutdown - this will clear the FW settings
    2) Boot the systems but with on ONE Motu828 powered on.
    3) After the system is up and you can see the one device - power the second device on it the Motu Audio Setup program should see both.
    there is some kind of FW race problem. Also, go to preference, turn OFF IPV4 stack from the FW device in NW setting. If I do not do this, I cannot get the system to see the devices and it basically is in some sort of "hung" state.

  • Video problem L305 & Suse 11.0

    Hi,
    After installing successfully, Suse 11.0 with Gnome on a L305-S5933 cannot display any GUI screens, only various color bars jumping around...

    JDK 1.5.0_16 should work just fine for Thread Analyzer.
    Did you run your program under "collect -r on"?
    Please, take a look at "collect" man page to make sure you specified all necessary options:
    http://docs.sun.com/source/820-4180/man1/collect.1.html
    Also you have to compile your program with additional option to enable data race detection:
    -xinstrument=datarace
    Please, take a look at this option in the man page:
    1. C compiler
    http://docs.sun.com/source/820-4180/man1/cc.1.html
    2. C++ compiler
    http://docs.sun.com/source/820-4180/man1/CC.1.html
    3. Fortran compiler
    http://docs.sun.com/source/820-4180/man1/f90.1.html
    If you did not pass "-xinstrument=..." option to compiler,
    and did not pass "-r on" option to collect, you can view
    the results of your experiment in "analyzer", but it will not
    show data race problems, because they are not collected.
    Thanks.

  • Using a POP mail account in mac mail

    My friend has an AT&T sbcglobal POP mail account he has added to his mac mail app. Since it is POP mail it is not always received in his mac mail box if AT&T Yahoo account receives it first. I guess he can prevent the Yahoo mail box from downloading the messages if he signs out of the Yahoo account.But he also has an iPhone. So will he still have the race problem between the computer & the iPhone on which gets the mail first?
    Appreciate any suggestions on how this can be solved?

    For POP:
    The following mail server settings will work with all AT&T email domains: @ameritech.net, @att.net, @bellsouth.net, @flash.net, @nvbell.net, @pacbell.net, @prodigy.net, @sbcglobal.net, @snet.net, @swbell.net, @wans.net.
    Email Program Settings Field:
    Enter:
    Incoming (POP)
    inbound.att.net
    Outgoing (SMTP)
    outbound.att.net(requires authentication)
    Incoming mail server:
    POP3
    Incoming/Outgoing User Name:
    Full AT&T email address, including domain (e.g., [email protected], [email protected])
    Incoming mail port #:
    995, secure connection (SSL) checked
    Outgoing mail port #
    465, secure connection (SSL) checked
    I assume the settings you are refering to gives that delay for marking the messages as read when highlighted for that period of time. Probably for scrolling through the list without changing the unread status. Lion doesn't have that selection, so I can't test that at the moment.

  • Standby media recovery waiting for inactive thread

    Hi,
    Please let me know any idea on this scenario. Thanks.
    Environment:
    Oracle 11.2.0.2
    primary: 3 node RAC
    standby: 3 node RAC
    Problem:
    there is thread 5 (not registered instance or did not show in srvctl) that generates archivelog. but the lag apply stopped because of this when the instance (of thread 5) is shutdown.
    question: somehow an instance is registered in the cluster but in srvctl only 3 instance is running. it should have 4 instance but 1 is not running. How can I remove the thread 5 so when someone startup then shutdown instance#4 it will not create archivelog that will stopped the apply of archivelog in standby.
    note: this is perf environment server so someone and "other" DBA is accessing this environment which I am not aware what are they doing with the cluster.
    looking in alert log file: - it is waiting for thread 5 sequence 510. But the instance is down so log is not shipped to standby database and this resulted to lag in other threads.

  • GOOP VI "set modified data" locks LabVIEW for seconds

    I use GOOP.
    Sometimes the VI "set modified data" (from now on SMD) of one of my GOOP classes is locked for about 15 seconds, while CPU raises to 100%.
    It happens when SMD is called from a certain VI. It does not happen every time SMD is called from this VI.
    As I have understood GOOP, the VI "get data to modify" tries to access/lock the data members - which might take a while if the the data members are currently locked by another VI - but SMD only sets the data members and removes the lock, which should always be possible (at least if the data set has been locked by this VI, which - yes! - is the case).
    Other VIs are running in parallell, maybe they could cause the CPU to raise to 100% but I find it strange th
    at it only happens when SMD is called from this particular VI.
    I think I need a better understanding for how SMD really works.
    Regards

    Hi,
    Your description of how "get data to modify" (from now on called GDM) and "set modified data" works is correct and you have fully understand how it all works. The only VI that actually may wait is the "get data to modify" (happens if the data for the object is locked by something running in parallell as you describe). The GDM is however reentrant so that it really will be able to wait for seconds (specified by the timeout) and also letting other process wait as well using the GDM. The SDM is not reentrant (does not have to) and should really execute fast (set data and unlock) and never hold execution, just as you describe.
    Are you absolutly sure that it is the SMD that cause the CPU to freak out? Maybe the fact that you unlock the data releases ano
    ther part of your program that were "hanging on the lock" and the problem is actually in another part of the program. Do you have some exceptional large size of your data? Do you somehow elaborate with VI priorities and/or reentrant VIs. This might sometimes really cause strange situations. The situation you describe looks more like a "race" problem.
    The SDM problem you describe is new to me and I have never encounted it. Would it be possible for you to attach some LV code example showing the phenomenon?
