Rac 1节点监听突然OFFLINE原因不明10.2+raw+aix5.3

环境：rac10.2+raw+aix5.3
1节点的监听突然OFFLINE，2节点正常

当时的状态是，库实例正常，vip未飘移，crs_stat显示只有1节点的监听OFFLINE(TARGET ONLINE),但该监听进程还在
lsnrctl>start LISTENER_MYDB1 等待，命令不返回
最后kill监听（大概02:30左右），然后发现监听被自动重启，恢复正常
到今天为止（11.20）问题再未重现
在故障的时间段，监听日志没有任何输出：
故障前都是正常的连接established信息
之后就是监听重启的信息
那么这个监听为什么会OFFLINE，是某种BUG？

How to create DIR/File on a raw device in RAC environment.

Hi all,
I use a shell script to create DIR and File on a raw device also it creates schema and tablespaces.
I am facing problem in creating DIR and Files on raw device.
One more thing, can multiple tablespaces be created on a raw device.
Thanks & regards,
Sanjeev

Thanks for the response. Please help me further.
About the Script - It asks for the path for creating DIR and uses shell command to create DIR. Later same path and DIR name is used to create Oracle DIR. Now in place of absolute path raw device name is passed. The same script is also used for creating tablespaces and schema.
There is second script that is .sql script that creates external table in the newly created schema. All this has been working fine on single instance Oracle server. we have tested many times but fails in RAC environment when we use raw device.
Question is - If I use filesystem will the external table's flat files and Directories be accessible to all the instances.
I have one application written in java that would be clustered and running on these oracle servers. This application would be accessing those external tables and their flat files. Will there be a problem accessing these flat files accross the instances.
Regards,
Sanjeev.

Reinstall DB and ASM using existing RAW devices in RAC

Hi,
We have two Database servers in Cluster environment DB1 and DB2 using CX300(SAN) as Storage device.Recently we had upgraded the OS kernel on DB1 from RHEL 3 to RHEL 4 and DB2 is still running on RHEL 3. Due to some application problems we wanted the DB1 to be rollbacked to RHEL 3
DB1-has ASM1 instance and DB2 has ASM2 instance running.Similary SID1 and SID2 on both of them.
Since we want to roll back to RHEL 3 it is a clean install on DB1. So my problem is I had never done this kind of reinstallation of DB and ASM using existing raw devices.
Can Someone sent me out some instructions and steps on how to do the reinstall without disturbing RAC,DB2 and Data on RAW/CX300(SAN) device.
I am basically a system admin not a complete Oracle DBA.I will be grateful for your help.
Thanks,
Shiva

It means, before proceeding a proper database backup must be taken, then it has to be started from scratch. RHEL3 is certified with 10gR1 and 10gR2, you should be aware of the patchsets available for the oracle version.
I suggest you to read the Clusterware and RDBMS installation guides:
Oracle® Database Release Notes

Raw devices versus Cluster File Systems in RAC 10gR2

Hi,
Does anyone using cluster file systems in a RAC 10gR2 installation, specifically IBMs GPFS?
Ive visited a company that is running RAC 10gR2 in AIX over raw devices. Why someone would choose to use raw devices , with all the problems to administer , when all the modern file systems are so powerful? Is there any issues when using cluster file systems + RAC? Is there considerable performance benefits when using raw devices with RAC ?
I´ve always used Oracle stand alone instances over file systems (since version 7) , and performance was always very good. I´ve tested raw devices almost 10 years ago , and even in that time (the hardware today is much better - SAN , 15K rpm disks , huge caches - and the file systems software today is much better) the cost to administer it does not compensate the benefits (only 5% more faster than file systems in Oracle 7).
So , besides any limitations imposed by RAC , why use raw devices nowadays ?
Regards,
Antonio Belloni

Hi,
spontaneously, my question would be: How did you eliminate the influence of the Linux File System Cache on ext3? OCFS2 is accessed with the o_direct flag - there will be no caching. The same holds true for RAW devices. This could have an influence on your test and I did not see a configuration step to avoid it.
What I saw, though, is "counter test": "I have tried comparing simple file copies from an OS level and the speed differences are not apparent - so the issue only manifests itself when the data is read via an oracle db." and I have no good answer to that one.
Maybe this paper has: http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/linux/pdf/Linux-FS-Performance-Comparison.pdf - it's a bit older, but explains some of the interdependencies.
Last question: While you spent a lot of effort on proving that this one query is slower on OCFS2 or RAW than on ext3 for the initial read (that's why you flushed the buffer cache before each run), how realistic is this scenario when this system goes into production? I mean, how many times will this query be read completely from disk as opposed to use some block from the buffer? If you consider that, what impact does the "IO read time from disk" have on the overall performance of the system? If you do not isolate the test to just a read, how do writes compare?
Just some questions. Thanks.

Question about a file system storage option for RAC on 10g

Hello everyone,
I am in the beginning of connecting our storage and switches, and building RAC on them but there is a little argument between our specialists.
We have two database servers(10g with OEL 5) to be clustered and two visible disk groups to each of those nodes. So question is can we choose only one disk group as a shared storage leaving the rest one as the redundant copy during database a creation window while installing the database. Because some of us argue that oracle database has a built-in capability to decide on what level of RAID we store our data.
Thank you for your help.

"some of us argue that oracle database has a built-in capability to decide on what level of RAID we store our data".
That statement is not true. Oracle has optional multiplexing for control files, redo logs, and archive logs but this is not enabled by default and Oracle will not automatically enable it. If you want redundancy of tables, indexes, temp, and undo you must provide this because Oracle does not offer it standard or as an option. You can achieve redundancy with RAID at the array level, or host based mirroring (like ASM redundancy groups or Linux mdadm). This can also depend on your file system because, I think, OCFS2 does not support host based mirroring (so you cannot use mdadm or lvm to mirror the storage if you are using OCFS2).
Redundancy is not required, but it is recommended if you are using hard disks because they are prone to failures. You can configure RAID 10 across all disks in the array and present this as one big LUN to the database server. If you have two storage arrays and you want to mirror the data across the two arrays, then present all of the devices as JBOD and use Linux mdadm to create your RAID group.
RAC requires shared storage. Maybe you have a NAS or SAN device, and you will present LUNs to the Oracle database servers. That is no problem. The problem is making those LUNs usable by Oracle RAC. When I used Oracle 10g RAC, I used the Linux raw device facility to manage these LUNs and make them ready for Oracle RAC. However, raw has been desupported. Today I would use either ASM or OCFS2. This has nothing to do with redundancy, this is just because you are using RAC.

crs is not started in any of the nodes. I would like to know if anybody faced this kind of a problem when using QFS on diskgroup. When one disk is failed, the oracle is not supposed to go offline as the other disk is working, and also my qfs configuration is to mirror these two disks !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Many thanks in advance
Ushas Symon

I'm not sure why you say QFS is mirroring these disks!?!? Shared QFS has no inherent mirroring capability. It relies on the underlying volume manager (VM) or array to do that for it. If you need to mirror you storage, you do it at the VM level by creating a mirrored metadevice.

How to create Shared RAW disk on solaris 10?

Hi,
I have built two solaris machine using VMware. I am going to configuare RAC. how to create shared RAW disk for ocr,votedisk and asm?
OS version = 5.10 32 bit
Thanks

use openfiler ( software based SAN) if do not have shared disk storage system, this is an appliance kinda software can behave as SAN storage, it can be installed on VM as a guest machine and rest configuration remain same as storage and your RAC deployment.
http://www.openfiler.com/community/download
alternativly you can follow below method

ASM Configuration on oracle 10.2 RAC

hi all
os : sun sparc solaris 10
db : 10.2 rac database
clusterware configured using raw devices.
we have no other option than configuring asm on raw devices.
could u tell me narrows steps how to do it manually as well as using dbca

Hi
I've do mine last week but it's in HPUX not sun and not with raw device but i think it's the same
Steps:
1- Launch dbca
2- Choose configure ASm
3- Select all the nodes
4- Choose Create Initiialization parameter file and click on ASM parameters and in the asm_diskstring parameter specify the disk you want to use in asm group example
vg01/vol1,vg01/vol2, ... Don't specify first the disk group
5- Create new disk group
6- choose the disk candidate for the group
7- Finished

SAN for ocr and vote file for Linux RAC

Hi Experts,
Based on Oracle document, i have to create 2 devices for the OCR and 3 for the VOTE in RAC.
However, my boss think SAN maybe mirroe OCR and Vote file. It is enough for 1 location in SAN storage. It does not matter how many driver sidplay for user.
Actually it is only one SAN in back side.
Any Explain for OCR/VOTE file in SAN?
Thnaks
JIm

The idea to have these multiplex copy is to reduce the single point of failure, non the less, that's reason you build RAC in the first place isn't?
So if it's possible you'd better have redundancy on physical disk level (LUN etc) then logic level (volume, partition etc) then file level.
Well I agree modern SAN are pretty reliable and had built in redundancy on physical and logic level, but if you only have single vote disk and OCR, your RAC is going to fail right away when vote disk and OCR has problem. The chances are if your OCR and Vote disk has logical corruption, the corruption is going to populated to your mirrors. Even if your mirror is good you still need to get mirror copy to replace working copy and restart cluster during the time your RAC is offline.
With more than one OCR and voting disk, your RAC is likely to survive single OCR/vote disk failure, so you can fix the problem while RAC online.

또한, crs로만 묶을 경우 ASM을 꼭 사용해야 되는지 알고 싶습니다
raw를 이용할려고 하는데 아직 잘 모르겠군요
조언 부탁드립니다.

10g 부터는 3rd 제품없이 crs만 설치하셔도 됩니다.
그런데 현업에서는 불안한지 crs만 설치는 잘 안하더군요
asm은 선택사항입니다. 써도 되고 안써도 되고..
아직 까지는 asm을 잘 안씁니다.

If anybody have any documents, scripts or links for this information. please send me on [email protected]

RAC uses lun from both EVA and XP array

Hi,
i Have created a RAC database on EVA array raw volume. Now i am trying to create a new tablespace for the same RAC database on XP raw volume but it hangs.
Is it possible to configure the database to use lun from different different array say EVA and Xp.Single database uses lun from different arrays?

Why? Because the kernel does not expose different I/O routines depending on whether the device is a LUN, local SATA drive, local SCSI drive, remote network drive, etc. It exposes a single set of I/O routines that are device agnostic.
Oracle calls these standard kernel I/O routines to create a data file, read data and write data. If these work, no problem. Oracle is not concerned about the exact device used by the kernel to perform that I/O. Nor does it know the type of device being written to. E.g. a LUN on the storage array is typically exposed as a SCSI device by the kernel - s/w using that device will be oblivious to the fact that it is actually a LUN on a storage array.
PS. Just note that the right devices and combination of devices must be used to optimise performance. It will be not so bright to create an ASM striped diskgroup on 3 devices where 1 is a different device type all together and a lot slower than the other 2.

CRS on Raw Device

Hi,
I am trying to install RAC on RHEL3.0 using Raw device. I followed the "Pre-installation" instruction and started CRS installation. I entered "/dev/raw/raw6" when asked to enter "OCR" location. I got an error "An error has occurred while trying to execute the query"
Anybody can help please?

I found the following error in /tmp/crsctl.xxxxx:
Failure in CSS initialization opening OCR.
It is running the command "crsctl check boot". Anyone help? thanks!

From Mac Mini to a portable.......

Now I've got used to my Mac Mini and am loving the change from Windows.
I would like to know which laptop to go for? Without double posting in both laptop forums, thought I'd ask here as quite a few of you are Mac experts and I only really use this forum!
I will be using it to keep photographs I take at bike race meetings, convert them from RAW to JPG using Photoshop.
So, which one shall I go for? I'm not too bothered about getting one with a huge screen as I've a spare 15" TFT should I wish to take that.
I was thinking, 1Gb RAM, 100GB drive and from there I'm a bit lost! iBook or Powerbook?
Would like to stay less than a £1000 but would go over but don't want to go too high!
Thanks in advance!
Carl.

The current iBooks are really nice, and will handle abuse a tad better than the PowerBook (although it's pretty darn sturdy too). One thing worth noting - iBooks only do video mirroring, so if you want to be able to hook it up to a second display (and actually use both screens), go for the PowerBook.
