Request help for confusion over Oracle single instance database

Hello all,
Following Oracle version was installed at the client site @ the moment
Oracle Database 11g Release 1 (11.1.0.6.0) for Microsoft Windows (x64) on Non-Clustered enviornment.
The clients are going to arrange another identical server and wants to configure it with 2 nodes windows cluster enviornement.
The current server where Oracle server was installed will become active node of the cluster.
The confusion is if we should install the following version on node 2
Oracle Clusterware 11g Release 1 (11.1.0.6.0) for Microsoft Windows (x64)
or
node 2 should also be installed with
Oracle Database 11g Release 1 (11.1.0.6.0) for Microsoft Windows (x64) version ?
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/111060-win64soft-099656.html
Any help for removing confusion would be appreciated
Thanks,

I think it's first needed to think about what kind of configuration you want; Failsafe, DataGuard or even RAC? But you talk about clustered and an active node, so I take it the object is to create a Failsafe cluster.
If you want to use FailSafe first read about it, for example use http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/windows/index-082893.html (Resources: Documentation)

  • Creating a RAC standby database for a single instance database

    Dear All,
    I have a task of migrating a 500GB single instance database to a two-node RAC database with a little downtime at hand. My migration strategy is to:
    1) Create a RAC physical standby for the Single Instance database
    2) Switchover to RAC standby.
    Primary and Standby OS and DB configurations:
    OS: Windows Server EE 2003 (64-bit)
    DB: Oracle 10g Database Release 2 (10.2.0.4)
    Oracle 10g Clusterware Release 2 (10.2.0.4)
    To create a RAC standby, I will:
    a) Install Clusterware (10.2.0.1)
    b) Install Database (10.2.0.1)
    c) Patch both Clusterware and Database (10.2.0.4)
    d) Create ASM instance for both the nodes (+ASM1 & +ASM2)
    e) create standby controlfile on primary
    f) Move standby controlfile, RMAN backup of primary, pfile, listener.ora, tnsnames.ora, password file to standby host-1
    g) make necessary changes to the pfile on standby host-1 like cluster_database, instance_name, thread, ...
    h) mount standby database and restore backup
    Kindly validate my steps and if there already exists such a document then please do provide me with a link.
    Regards

    Please refer to MAA whitet paper :

  • Oracle single instance rac installation

    hi,
    do I need minimum of 2 servers in order to carry out 11.2 oracle single instance RAC installation ? or that its possible with one node? and then can add more nodes in future?
    is there any article/documents on this?
    thanks

    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/rac.112/e10718/clonerac.htm#CHDGFHCA
    "The cloning process assumes that you successfully installed an Oracle Clusterware home and an Oracle home with Oracle RAC on at least one node. In addition, all root scripts must have run successfully on the node from which you are extending your cluster database."
    also
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/rac.112/e10717/intro.htm#BEIHEJGD
    "Overview of Cloning and Extending Oracle Clusterware in Grid Environments
    Cloning nodes is the preferred method of creating new clusters. The cloning process copies Oracle Clusterware software images to other nodes that have similar hardware and software. Use cloning to quickly create several clusters of the same configuration. Before using cloning, you must install an Oracle Clusterware home successfully on at least one node using the instructions in your platform-specific Oracle Clusterware installation guide.
    For new installations, or if you must install on only one cluster, Oracle recommends that you use the automated and interactive installation methods, such as Oracle Universal Installer or the Provisioning Pack feature of Oracle Enterprise Manager. These methods perform installation checks to ensure a successful installation. To add or delete Oracle Clusterware from nodes in the cluster, use the addNode.sh and rootcrs.pl scripts."
    it doesnt directly say its possible and I cant find full documentation on how to go about it ... but seem like its possible ?

    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)

  • Request help for purchasing HD webcams using iMac, OSX &Lion

    I am requesting help for purchasing a HD webcam using iMac, OSX &Lion.  Any suggestions would help.  The following is what I've done so far...
    I purchased Logitech's HD C910 webcam. It was a mess in requards to freezing up, no zoom and most of all no adjustments in: contrast, hue, color, etc. You're stuck just like a car with no engine or wheels who wants that.  The other Logitech products i.e. Pro 9000 is being discontinued with no software updates in the future  and the same with the other products. Most of the other manufactures do not provide software that is really compatible provideing true HD with full features. I'm willing to spend around $199,00 or so.  Any suggestions?

    Well I found my own answer to the webcam concern that I had ....I bought the Logitech C-910...Yes, I know the Logitech states their software is not compatible with OS X ...That's OK, I only use the basics supplied by Logitech to open the cam...Logitech does supply HD settings which are useful.  I like the wide angle which is there to play around. Then I use a software program called "Webcams Settings" found at Apple's App Store. There is a small charge for this download but more than worth it to have a fully functioning system.  The best way to get there is obliviously via your "Dock." Click on the icon and type in "Webcam Settings" in the top right portion of the page and presto....you have all the goodies to play like a professional. i.e.:  zoom, pan, tilt, aperture. etc. of course your webcam camera(s) must have the capability to perform these options in order to use them.
      Note I have used my webcam for everything you can imagine and have a 60 foot cord (several cords linked together) to go outside (LOL) 'Just love the goodies with "Webcam Settings".  I take outstanding pics too if I do say so, please.  Funny, I rarely use my cam to Skype but knowing the option is there for me anytime I wish.  I my cam to photograph orchids and misc. even portraits and family play photos with my tripod in hand.   Just because there is a big road block in your path doesn't mean there aren't other avenues. In the corporate life it's called take a negative and make it a positive or else.......and if you have to gripe then you better have an idea on how to turn it around.  -So- I did Logitech and Apple.

  • How to restore a single instance database to RAC (10g) using RMAN ?

    Hi all,
    I have a single instance database configured using file system in a unique server, so now I need to restore this database using RMAN to a new RAC environment with two nodes and ASM also.
    Does anyone can help with this documentation or a link about any information about this restore using rman ?
    I tryied found on metalink but threres isn´t this specific case. Only how to convert single instance to 10g RAC, but without how to use with rman information.
    System: Windows 2003
    Oracle 10g R2
    Thanks.

    In essense you are really doing nothing more than restoring a backup on a new host. If you want a blow by blow detail of how to accomplish it take at http://www.oracledistilled.com/oracle-database/restore-database-to-another-host-using-rman
    In order to write the files to the ASM Disk groups you will use the SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE in your restore script. You will also need to create the ORACLE_BASE/admin/<DBSID> structure on all of node. Once you get the database completely restore you will need to edit the SPFILE to include the proper value for the CLUSTER* parameters and each the node specific parameters. Sorry that it is kind of higher level than what you are probably looking for but the link above and what I put here should get you were want to go.

  • Configuring multiple services in a single instance database

    Dear All,
    I would like to create multiple service names for a single instance oracle database (10.2.0.3 on IBM - AIX 6.1). I tried searching on the net, reading documentation, and also on the metalink but couldn't find anything relevant to single instance database.
    Say I have two users, userA and userB, for which I would like to use two services (ServA and ServB) to connect to the same single instance database.
    Any help in this direction is appreciated.

    Thanks for your quick solution.
    By the time you answered I was able to locate it in the documentation. I have tested it and its working perfectly. Here's the documenation link.
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14237/initparams188.htm#i1133481
    It is very hard to believe you didn't find this in the documentation, and my suspicion is you didn't search for it at all.It is very hard to believe that you don't trust others and end up in suspicion. I wish you were sitting next to me while I was searching for the link/document.It is because the vast majority of doc questions are asked by people who don't read the docs at all.
    Now, I'm curious about your requirement. While it can be done, it is pretty unusual. That always leads me to want to step back from the technical question and ask What business problem is this solving?

  • Can we use Grid Infrastructure 11.2 to protect a single instance database?

    Hi all,
    I would like to use Oracle Grid Infrastructure to protect a single-instance database.
    I found these docs:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/products/clusterware/overview/em-db-failover-128585.pdf (for 10.2)
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/products/clusterware/overview/si-db-failover-11g-134623.pdf (for 11.1)
    I was unable to find a similar document for GI 11.2 . Do you know if such a document exists?
    At the moment I only know that the GI is free if used for an Oracle Product, but I am not shure whether it can be used to protext external applications or single-instance databases
    Andrea

    Hi,
    while this still works (the scripts for failover you find in the demo folder $GI_HOME7/crs/demo/coldfailover), the document does not exists, since with 11gR2 there is a supported solution called RAC ONE Node, hence rendering the manual setup obsolete.
    For more information see:

  • Do we require HBA card for single instance database.

    Hi All,
    I have doubt that we are going to implement a single instance with ASM.
    Db version will 11gR2 as it is asm. My concern HBA is required for single instance oracle database.
    Please suggest.
    Thanks and Regards,

    The question is : do you want your user to be able ti use their application offline ?
    If yes, then you may provide them a local database and use a JDBC type4 driver. (The application is fetch directly from the server when first connected and then is able to lauch the applicaiton off-line) Such a network listen is allowed by the JNLP security model without any application sign !
    If no, then why not having a single database and some user debedant table that store the user specific data (as usual), and using a login dialog-bon (or an auto-logon mechanism) to restric identify and access your database thru some business logic via RMI or any ligh-webservice technology.
    Anyway you have plenty of solutions ..... it only depends of what are the exact needs.
