VMware and RAC

hi gurus,
we are trying to setup RAC on a vmware environment in a test environment to learn the rac configuration as
we dont have enough budget for multiple h/w. we would be using a windows machine to try this
experts who has done this kind of implementation please help me in,
a)does the freeware vmware GSX support oracle rac or we need to purchase ESX?
b)any case studies or documents related to rac config on vmware GSX/ESX
c)i guess, in the case of VMware we need not require any SAN/NAS, right?
many thanks,
charles

Hope you realize that Oracle Support policy, described in Metalink note 249212.1, may result in you being unsupported for specific issues. Basically you need to reproduce the issue outside of VMWare to get support.
A better variant might be to look at Oracle's VM.

  • RAC database cannot be connected after Grid and RAC DB have been installed

    Folks,
    Hello. I am installing Oracle 11gR2 RAC using 2 VMs (main VM rac1 and slave VM rac2) with Oracle Linux 5.6
    according to the website http://appsdbaworkshop.blogspot.com/2011/10/11gr2-rac-on-linux-56-using-vmware.html
    Grid and RAC database have been installed successfully for both VMs rac1 and rac2. I am using the slave VM rac2 to test Grid and RAC database.
    I have run the commands as below:

    Its output: cannot connect to the server at https://rac2.localdomain:1158/em
    As we see the outputs for commands above, Grid is running at the beginning but now is not running. SQLPLUS and SQLdeveloper cannot connect with database. Browser url cannot connect to the console https://rac2.localdomain:1158/em.
    My question is:
    Do any folks understand how to solve the above 4 problems ?
    Thanks.

  • Installed helpdesk to sles11sp1 vmware and won't startup

    Hi,
    I installed the service desk to sles11sp1 for vmware and it won't startup.
    I am also running zenworks configuration mgmt 11 RC3 on the same server.
    I installed with:
    java -install install.jar -console
    When prompted for a port I took the default 8700. It gave me a null and then prompted for a 1 to continue. So I selected 1 and continued.
    If I http://ip:8700 I get nothing.
    If I netstat -a -n|grep 8700 I get nothing.
    What do I need to do to get this to work? Also I thought I could get this service desk integrated with zenworks configuration management?

  • Windows 7 and a mac and vmware and internet connection challenges

    Hello
    I have a macbook pro that I bought this year. Loaded vmware and win xp on it. Tried to load win 7 on it and it went well. Now it seems I can't connect to the internet. I removed all the preloaded pc security to zero, so I believe this isn't the issue.
    Went to the device manager and see that the ethernet has issues. Looks like the drivers are out of date, or not functioning. When I looked on the mac side under utilities, I see its a broadcom 57765-BO ethernet card. I believe I got the correct one from broadcom, but it still didn't work? Its strange because the ethernet and wifi work on the mac side but not on the win 7 side?
    Any suggestions for making this work?
    Thanks
    Keith

    Are you saying you loaded Windows 7 using Fusion? If so, you should seek answers in the Fusion or Windows forums. Your issue has nothing to do with OSx or Apple. Neither does it have anything to do with Apple software compatibility with Windows.
    If you are running Windows in a virtual machine your Apple hardware is not relevant to your issue. Fusion creates virtual hardware. The best way to get support for virtual machines is to go to the virtual machine's web site and look in their support.
    If the Windows drivers are out of date, from within Windows update the drivers.

    Kaushal.(1) To be blunt you dont have enough RAM for starters. You might get aware with 2GB, you probably really need 3GB or perhaps 2.5GB might just do.
    (2) VMware is a company who produce several products, i assume you are talking about VMware server ... but I may be wrong.
    (3) I assume you are retaining a windows OS on your laptop., but again i could be wrong.
    Its not really in my nature to have Oracle Databases on external USB drives, but this stack will probably just work. (Simply because VMmare server will use a simply file for its virtual disk(s) on the USB)
    I would also not be surprised if you has issues with the Solaris graphics.
    In general I suspect your auggested setup may be at the least troublesome.
    What I have said above are opinions, it is not fully researched and I accept corrections.

  • Install CRS and RAC with different users

    I' m tring to install CRS and RAC with different users.
    It is supported but I don't find documentation.
    Have someone experience with this configuration ?
    My question are related to permission/own of voting and ocr file.
    in this configuration is CRS owner or DB owner that run srvctl commands ?
    Thanks !

    Yes it is ... check out the RAC FAQ on metalink, and just as Chris metioned the users will need to have the oinstall group as their primary..
    "Is it supported to install CRS and RAC as different users.
    Yes, CRS and RAC can be installed as different users. The CRS user and the RAC user must both have "oinstall" as their primary group, and the RAC user should be a member of the OSDBA group.

  • Load balancing in Tuxedo 9.1 and RAC

    Hello to all,
    I have some doubts on the way of balancing load in tuxedo 9.1 and RAC (Oracle 10gR2).
    Before, without RAC our configuration was the following one:
    GRP_A: service A001, service A002
    GRP_B: service B001, service B002
    Both groups were attacking the same BBDD, Now with the configuration in RAC we have the following thing:
    We have two intances RAC: ORARAC1 and ORARAC2
    TUXRACGROUPS=GRP_A1, GRP_B1; GRP_A2, GRP_B2
    The groups GRP_A1 = GRP_A2 and GRP_B1 = GRP_B2, but the groups GRP_A1 and GRP_B1 use the instance ORARAC1 and GRP_A2 and GRP_B2 use the instance ORARAC. Summarizing:
    GRP_A1: service A001, service A002 (ORARAC1)
    GRP_B1: service B001, service B002 (ORARAC1)
    GRP_A2: service A001, service A002 (ORARAC2)
    GRP_B2: service B001, service B002 (ORARAC2)
    Have formed the variable TUXRACGROUPS=GRP_A1, GRP_B1; GRP_A2, GRP_B2
    How is Tuxedo balancing the traffic?
    1) Does not balance load between RACGROUPS?
    2) Does it use RAC.. as favourite?
    3) Does the RACGROUPS balance when it's overlaeded or always?
    3) Does the same algorithm uses that LDBAL?, if this is affirmative, is it necessary to have formed in the ubb LDABL=Y?
    4) Tuxedo uses an algorithm of round-robin?
    5) others
    I have looked for information but I have not found any information that could help to understanding it.
    Thanks in advance
    P.D.: Excuse my english :(

    There is Oracle RAC routing information available at
    http://e-docs.bea.com/tuxedo/tux91/ads/adorac.htm#248431
    If you are not running in a transaction, then the TUXRACGROUPS environment
    variable will not be relevant and routing will be handled as it would be if
    this environment variable were not set.
    Assuming that GRP_A1 and GRP_A2 are the only groups that offer services A001
    and A002 and GRP_B1 and GRP_B2 are the only groups that offer services B001
    and B002, routing of service requests made within a transaction will be
    handled as follows:
    - Any call to A001 or A002 made within a transaction with an even GTRID
    counter value will be handled by GRP_A1. (The GTRID counter value is the
    last of the 3 hexadecimal numbers printed in the ULOG for messages printed
    within that transaction.)
    - Any call to A001 or A002 made within a transaction with an odd GTRID
    counter value will be handled by GRP_A2.
    - Any call to B001 or B002 made within a transaction with an even GTRID
    counter value will be handled by GRP_B1.
    -Any call to B001 or B002 made within a transaction with an odd GTRID
    counter value will be handled by GRP_B2.

  • Differences between VMware and Oracle VM

    Hi guys,
    I am sure that some people have used VMware and moving to OVM or vice versa.
    I am curious to get some feedback resulting from comparing both products -VMware and OVM- (pros and cons).
    I am preparing some documentation so I thought of getting some feedback from experts and users.
    Thanks.

    The word is (from the Product Manager of Oracle VM) their engineering team is focusing on product release currently.
    Avi, I am VERY happy to see you say storage management was a big item in OVM 3.0, as that is likely a good sign for other improvements (that would make the product more competitive with VMWare shops).
    My quick "cons" between OVM 2.2.1 and VMware are:
    OVM lacks the concept of centralized ISO image management (this could easily be resolved by implementing Server Pool level NFS mounts), in 2.2.x you need to upload (SCP or HTTP) an ISO to a OVM host, and "register" it.
    OVM lacks the above mentioned SR selection when you create a VM (and related, a way to migrate VM's or images between SRs (Storage vMotion type feature).
    OVM lacks snapshotting entirely. If you want a clone of a VM, you shut it down and suck up the downtime to clone the VM
    OVM lacks a straight forward and flexible P2V mechanism, its a block level clone, doesnt inject drivers (SCSI, etc), doesnt give you the ability to resize drives, or any of the standard features in VMwares Converter product.
    OVM lacks detailed VM image management, such as a simple method to resize (expand) an VM image. Right now we have to use dd at command line to expand a VM.img file, which is not user friendly.
    OVM lacks the granular permission granting that you can do with VMware, for example, if a user account is a User, that user has rights to basically delete a VM if they wanted to. This is problematic as you may want to give a user rights to power cycle a VM, but not delete it!
    OVM lacks easy network management (such as NIC teaming/bonding, vlan configuration etc), its a very command line intensive operation, again, very user unfriendly.
    OVM lacks easy SAN connectivity management, same as the above, huge command line intensive operation, no tie-in to OVM manager at all.
    Some of the Pros:
    OVM is free to use, plus inexpensive support (primary reason we use it!)
    OVM is the only VM product that Oracle will openly support its products on.
    OVM is very scalable, management many guests on many servers in many server pools, single frame of management at no extra cost.
    OVM is based on open source software (Xen), you can tinker in the OS, look at logs, install monitoring tools (zabbix, etc) that you could not do easily in VMware
    Theres other issues we've ran across over the last year or so, but them all aside, I prefer it over VMware, but I am also a very seasoned Linux guy, I have my doubts that if you took a Windows sysadmin and asked them to setup a Oracle VM Cluster, it probably wouldn't fly.
    I am not bias, I've built and managed equal sized environments in both VMware and OVM, so my above mentioned PROS and CONS are purely based on usage of the products.

  • Oracle libraries in 10.2.0 and RAC 10.2.0

    hi
    are the libraries different between oracle 10.2.0 and RAC 10.2.0. we are upgarding to RAC and i am trying to findout if i have to recompile my c++ binaries using RAC 10.2.0

    yes we have a standalone version of 10g being converted to RAC mode..
    old version
    Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production
    With the Partitioning, OLAP and Data Mining options
    converted to
    Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production
    With the Partitioning, Real Application Clusters, OLAP and Data Mining options
    i understand the binaries would be different, but are the libraries different too?

  • VMware and Siebel in Production – We have a first customer!

    Hi All,
    Wanted to pass this along since it may be a first. When we checked just over a year ago neither Siebel nor VMware could produce a single Siebel customer running VMware in production. We knew of a few VMware web servers in production and a few VMware Dev/Test installations but not any full VMware enterprises.
    When this customer decided to go full VMware in production about a year ago as part of their Siebel 8.0 upgrade we were a little concerned since we knew they were going to be one of the very first.
    I am happy to report that after two months of live production usage with 14 servers in the enterprise everything worked out very well! All 14 server are VMware and even Avaya CTI is VMware.
    We know of one customer who recently decided against VMware in production since they were a little scared. I wanted to pass along the word that it worked great for our customer.
    Did anyone else beat us to production with VMware? Just wondering if this is a first.
    Take care,

  • Grid And RAC in oracle 10g

    Hi Experts,
    I'm new to Grid And RAC implementation.
    Is there any good links which I can learn the basics and implementation methods of Grid.???

    Grid computing is a concept. Wikipedia has a fairly decent description at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid_computing and there is even an infocenter on the concept at http://www.gridcomputing.com/
    Oracle leans toward the 'Utility Computing' idea in that wiki. This is especially true in the Oracle Application Server (subject for a different forum). In that mode of Grid, you add or drop out instances of programs as demanded by the load, just like you would add or drop electrical generators on the power grid.
    Taking generators off line permits maintenance, reduces wear and tear when the beasts are idle, and allows the minimum number of fully-loaded generators (and therefore minimum support personnel, support expenses) to be used as compared to lots of partially used ones - why not do that with computers as well?
    In the database world, Oracle provides RAC as a coordinated cluster of database instances. The cluster may be grown or shrunk, not without some care, in a fashion similar to the power generators.
    And just as with the electrical generators, people have to design the new instance, manage how and when it is added to or taken off the cluster, even figure out how to balance the load across the various units. Once designed, and put in place, it is relatively easy to add or remove an instance from the RAC, and (if done correctly) there is a minimum disruption to running applications.
    Be aware that the analogy is less-than-perfect.
    I recommend getting the Apress book Pro Oracle Database 10g RAC on Linux: Installation, Administration, and Performance as the basic manual for understanding and learning RAC. Read that and then use the demos and examples from Howard's site at http://www.dizwell.com and Jeff's setups at http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/tech_dba.html#linux And finally, go through the RAC material at http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/grid/index.html

  • 11g R2 and RAC One Node

    Hi,
    what is realy the advantage and difference between RAC and RAC One Node, since finaly we should switch to another server if a node/instance crashes.
    On IT Tips by Burleson Consulting it is said :
    What makes Oracle RAC One Node special is that it performs quick clone of the instance to a new node.
    Which for me means switch to another server on the RAC.
    Thanks for the explanations.

    - can be easily extended to multiple nodes.
    - you can use "Oracle Restart" which restarts your resources automatically
    - suppose you have several rac installation among your single databases you can manage a single node like you do with rac installations

  • Which difference parallel database and RAC database

    Hi Experts,
    I saw some document about parallel database and RAC database.
    My boss confused these two product.
    which difference between parallel database and RAC database?
    does parallel database is a "old RAC"?
    Thanks
    Jim

    RAC is the new name with many features for old depreciated Oracle Parallel Server (OPS).
    It was avialable till 8i, since 9i it is called RAC.

  • Map new Ethnic and Race categories to Old - IT 77

    Hi experts,
    We currently have old ethnic origins and race still displayed and assigned in IT 77. we need to map new ones and update IT 77.
    I understand that the program RPURACU0 maps new ethnic and race categories to old. Once i execute this program, do i need to perform any other additional configuration steps before i run EEO and AAP reports? (I read the forum and it said something about T588M update and Screen 2010... can someone explain what to do here)
    I am not an expert with EEO and AAP reports, but need to validate and execute the reports.
    Please help.
    Points will be awarded generously.
    Thanks
    Ana

    Hi Anna,
    Yes. There's no need to implement the SAP note as you system is apparently up to date already.
    The Alt. Screen and Next Screen for Module Pool MP007700_CE variable key "10" should be both 2010.
    After you've done this configuration, go to PA20 and check a US' employee's IT77.
    You should have the additional field Ethnicity (NEW). (which should be blank) below the field Ethnic Origin.
    You will also have a new way to maintain race data.
    Then you should run the program RPURACU0.
    The mapping should be as follows:
    Old Ethnic Origin: White/Not Hispanic origin
    Ethnicity: Not Hispanic/Latino
    Race: White
    Old Ethnic Origin: Black/Not Hispanic origin
    Ethnicity: Not Hispanic/Latino
    Race: Black
    Old Ethnic Origin: Hispanic
    Ethnicity: Hispanic/Latino
    Race:
    Old Ethnic Origin: Asian or Pacific Islander
    Ethnicity: Not Hispanic/Latino
    Race: ?
    Old Ethnic Origin: Amer.Ind./Alaskan Native
    Ethnicity: Not Hispanic/Latino
    Race: Amer.Ind./Alaskan Native
    Old Ethnic Origin: Native Hawaiian
    Ethnicity: Not Hispanic/Latino
    Race: Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander
    Old Ethnic Origin: Hispanic White Only
    Ethnicity: Hispanic/Latino
    Race: White
    Old Ethnic Origin: Hispanic All Other
    Ethnicity: Hispanic/Latino
    Race:
    All the old Ethnic Origins can be mapped to the new Race and Ethnic categories except for Asian or Pacific Islander.
    You have to do a separate run for employees that have Asian and Pacific Islander ethnic origin.
    Can you give me the program name of the AAP report you are using?
    We used Ad Hoc query to report the new Ethnicity codes, so I'm not sure if it will be reflected in the standard (?) program you are using.

  • E-recruiting  - Gender and race

    Hi all,
    what are the SAP fields for Gender and Race in E-recruit!
    Regards,
    Bharat

    Hi,
    the gender field is stored in the business partner data of the candidate. The candidate can either maintain it directly in its personal data or you can link it to the form of address so it is set automatically.
    To get the value you use cl_hrrcf_candidate_bupa_bl. There is a method to retrieve candidate personal data. Within the person data there is the gender. I think it's field bu_***_id. Only tricky thing is that the information is differently stored in table BUT000 than it is represented in the retrieval method, but this is no serious problem.
    Maintaining the race information is not part of the standard sap delivery. Attempts to get this by a dev. request will probably fail as they will point to EEO issuses similar as they do for nationality since years. SAP seem not to understand that in a global world the US approach of hiring is not the only existing and what is not allowed in one country is necessary in another one. At least we are lucky they did not design E-Recruiting according to french EEO law - we would have no name and no address.
    So if you need race information on the candidate you will have to enhance the system. Best by adding a customer field for the race in the CI Include of infotype 5102 (table HRP5102).
    Best Regards
