• Must I also patch grid infrastructure home with power supply?

  Hello

  I am building a new server to replace an old one with the following configuration:

  OLD Config: Oracle 11 g 2 EE (11.2.0.3) with POWER 16056266 block, on OEL 6.2 64-bit (file system)

  NEW Config: Oracle 11 g 2 EE (11.2.0.3) with power supply on OEL 6.2 64-bit, ASM (grid below) 16056266, 11.2.0.3

  If I understand correctly, grid Infra Software version cannot be less than that of RDBMS software. Because the RDBMS software must be patched with 16056266 power supply to match the existing server, I have a few questions:

  1. Should I ask a PSU 16056266 grid infrastructure home (I'm sure the answer is 'yes', but I want to ensure that)
  2. Is the same power supply for the RDBMS and grid infrastructure OR there is a download separate patch for grid below?
  3. I need to replace the existing 'OPatch"under grid infrastructure home with the latest [just like I do to patch House RDBMS]?

  Thanks in advance!

• Normal redundancy and physical disks

  Version of the grid: 11.2.0.3
  Platform: Oracle Enterprise Linux 6
  
  
  I'm a bit confused about the term "Two-way mirrored" in the documentation of the DSO.
  
  
  If I want to keep 1 tera bytes of business data in an ASM diskgroup with NORMAL redundancy.

  Should I need 2 physical Disks of 1TB each ?
  or 
  Should I need 3 physical Disks of 1TB each ?

  ASM is not a software RAID. ASM works based on file extensions and provides data redundancy by using the free space on drive failure of disk groups. By default, each disc is a group of failure. For a mirror (normal) 2 channels, you need at least 2 rupture discs groups; for the 3 - way (top), you need at least 3. You can also create a 2-way mirror with 3 drives, in which case data will be written alternating. Having ASM normal redundancy in your example you must have at least two drives of 1 TB, but you can also use 3 and will have more space. You can also use an external RAID and use no redundancy ASM (external), although ASM will give you better performance and flexibility because you can add disks to increase the space without having to rebuild your storage space.

• Is this normal in "normal redundancy?

  The GI version: 11.2.0.4 (RAC 3-node)

  OS: Oracle Linux 6.4

  Storage EMC Symmetrix VMAX

  I created a diskgroup with normal redundancy as shown below.

  10 each = 5000GB 500 GB LUN

  CREATE DISKGROUP DATA_DG1

  NORMAL REDUNDANCY

  DISC

  "ORCL:DATA_D1,"

  "ORCL:DATA_D2,"

  "ORCL:DATA_D3,"

  "ORCL:DATA_D4,"

  "ORCL:DATA_D5,"

  "ORCL:DATA_D6,"

  "ORCL:DATA_D7,"

  "ORCL:DATA_D8,"

  "ORCL:DATA_D9,"

  'ORCL:DATA_D10 '.

  ATTRIBUTE 'au_size' = "4 M";

  DiskGroup created.

  Given that it was normal, I was expecting half of gross space 5000 GB = 2.5 terabytes of usable space. But, the query below shows the output, I myself only 2.19 terabytes of usable (2249,86 GB) space. About 250GB short of what I expected. So where's my advantage 250 GB?

  SQL > select name, TYPE, 1024/1024/TOTAL_MB, FREE_MB/1024/1024, USABLE_FILE_MB/1024/1024 of v$ asm_diskgroup where name = 'DATA_DG1 ';

  NAME TYPE TOTAL_MB/1024/1024 FREE_MB/1024/1024 USABLE_FILE_MB/1024/1024

  ------------------------------ ------ ------------------ ----------------- ------------------------

  NORMAL DATA_DG1 4.8828125 4.8825531 2.19713593

  The amount of usable file space is equal to the amount of free disk space subtracted from the amount of disk space required to restore redundancy after failure divided by the level of redundancy of the disk group that is in your case.

  Run:

  select trunc((free_mb - required_mirror_free_mb) / 2) as useable from v$asm_diskgroup where name='DATA_DG1';

• Grid infrastructure 11.2.0.3 install fails with public & private subnet

  Specify Network Interface usage

  Name of the interface: eth1 subnet: 192.168.1.0 private
  
  By using advanced-> Installation
  No GNS->
  
  I'm getting an error [ins-41113] specified public and private interfaces are configured on the same subnet: 192.168.1.0 why it is a mistake because the Oracle e17212/typinst.htm Documentation says the following:
  
  A unique name of Acess customer (SCAN) for the group, including the following features:
  * Three IP; but I want to use only two static IP address, because I don't use DNS I use the file/etc/hosts.
  * On the same subnet as all other public IP addresses, VIP, and SCAN processes.
  
  Please advise because I was able to install the 11.2.0.2 grid Infrastructure using the same configuration with no problems. Now that I'm using Oracle 11.2.0.3 I encounter this problem.

  Levi,

  Thank you.

  I changed the subnet on each CCR node so that the public and the private sector have their own path to the distinctive network offering significant performance improvements.
  Node 1 eth0 192.168.1.12
  Node 1 eth1 192.168.2.13

  Node 2 eth0 192.168.1.14
  Node 2 eth1 192.168.1.15

  And then silence grid Infrastructure 11.2.0.3 successfully installed.

  Once again thank you very much!

• Where should you install Oracle database and grid Infrastructure in order to comply with OFA?

  I downloaded two files compressed to the Oracle database installation, and both zipped install files for the grid Infrastructure.  The book I'm following for installation is said to use a directory of the database and a directory for the grid Infrastructure, but it does not explain where they should be located in OFA.  Probably they should both close up somewhere in the same Base of Oracle (since all Oracle related on a single file system should go in the same basis, according to my understanding), but it is not clear where they need to be installed over the other.  For example, the grid Infrastructure is a separate product that gets its own Oracle Home?  Anyone can shed some light on this process?

  Also, does it matter where the zipped files are uncompressed?  For example, use one of these files after the installation process, or OFA only cares location after installation?

  Yes, they go in separate oracle_home.  This should be explained in the respective Setup Guide.  This will be a CAR or a standalone ASM?  I have

  It does not matter where you unzip the installation files.  They are only used for the installation.

• Grid Infrastructure 11.2 Install - network

  Hello

  I need some clarification on the installation of grid Infrastructure (RAC).

  How the network (IPs) is the installer...

  Public, private, VIP and SCAN

  In my setup here is what I currently have, just an example:

  # Public

  17.0.0.32 linux1.domain.com linux1

  17.0.0.34 linux2.domain.com linux2

  # Private

  17.0.2.32 linux1 - priv.domain.com linux1-priv

  17.0.2.34 linux2 - priv.domain.com linux2.priv

  # VIP

  17.0.4.32 linux1 - vip.domain.com linux1-vip

  17.0.4.34 vip.domain.com - linux2 linux2-vip

  # SCAN

  17.0.0.125 linux-scan

  When you use this configuration of network, I got the below error:

  [INS-40931] The following nodes have interface that are configured on a

  different subnet from the subnet SCAN:

  [linux1 - vip.domain.com, linux2 - vip.domain.com].

  Note:

  I have other servers configured like this, but don't use do not scan and they work; Although they are version 11.1.

  My question is, having VIP on the same subnet public IP address with security problems, such as my network guy's doubt this.

  I have proposed, he created the below:

  17.0.0.35 linux1 - vip.domain.com linux1-vip

  17.0.0.36 vip.domain.com - linux2 linux2-vip

  Is this right according to install 11.2?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  As I said that I asked network make VIP on the same subnet as the IP SCAN and the Public.

  That's all.

  Now, it looks like this:

  17.0.0.35 linux1 - vip.domain.com linux1-vip

  17.0.0.36 linux2 - linux2-vip vip.domain.com

  Thank you.

  Hello

  I have encountered this same problem when I install and upgrade at the same time.

  I do this step:

  1 delete the Instance Service + ASM using oradim
  2. remove the CSSD, using "localconfig.bat", in my case not work... so I forced remove with the utility 'sc' to windows.
  3. restart the server
  4. Add the CSSD, using 'localconfig.bat '.
  5 Add the ASM instance using "oradim.
  6a started earpiece and ASM and all Disksgroups.

  So I performed installation and upgrade ASM and listeners arrived... the program YES care of everything.

  When to remove a service in Windows env, you must restart the server to ensure good cleaning of all disabled services Oracle and/or disassembled elements always reside in memory.

  The OracleOHservice is started and the check said that the service is online but a css check crsctl return failure CRS-4530 Communications communicating with the synchronization of Services Cluster demon.

• How can I set the DSO AU to 8 MB during install/config grid Infrastructure?

  Hello
  
  How can I set the DSO AU to 8 MB during install/config grid Infrastructure? Storage installer screens do not have the ability to set a caliber of more big to ASM when creating initial DATA DG, just go with the value defaults to THE (1 MB). Our SAN provider did studies and for ASM a framework to THE 8 MB instead of the default 1 MB will give better performance. Is there a template that I can change preinstall so the installer will create the DG with a frame of 8 MB DATA?
  
  
  Thank you
  Tom

  Hello

  You can not change it to the default diskgroup created during installation of GI.

  Only option you have is to make an installation by default, create a new diskgroup and move all the files needed.
  If you can read German see here for a tip on how to do it:

• Grid infrastructure to install 11 GR 2 - size of the invalid entry

  HW/SW platform: Win 7 under a machine Virtualbox 3.2.10 with Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.5 x86_64 2 prompt guests to support the DB instance in a RAC configuration two.
  
  Here's the question:
  
  During the installation of 11 GR 2 grid Infrastructure of zip file downloaded on a Virtualbox (Linux) guest host, the process stops with the error ' Invalid input size (expected 729772, but has 729794 bytes).» After several attempts of difficulty (see below), I get the same error that only he throws different byts sizes if it seems to fail at different points in the process of randomly. So far that all take great - HW/SW/network all the pre-reqs without error (took a piece of work to get there!).
  
  I scoured Metalink, Google docs. Google shows a large number of cases where this sort of thing happened with different configs but no coherent solution is presented, nor caused already discussed. Based on my results, I tried several things but am now at a total loss for what to do. Here's what I spent the last two days, in order to work around the problem:
  
  -a confirmed the value cksum and bytes are correct before decompression.
  -installed and used a different download manager and pulled down a new copy of the file zip both my PC and directly on the Linux (PCS used in binary mode when copying the files in Win7 for Linux).
  -downloaded a third party utility zip to try.
  -reran the installation of many times (cleaned of all directories before each series)
  -created a symbolic link to point to the utility unzip in/usr/bin rather than Oracle provides with the software in case that was the problem.
  
  Anyone can shed light on this issue? This could be the cause of this rpoblem? Maybe someone has had experience of this type of fixing problem and can share what's the root casue.
  
  Here's what's installation log file (the last lines). It indicates the prcoess stopped at the first command of fastcopy...:

• Problem of decommissioning of 11204 11203 grid Infrastructure

  Hi gurus,

  I have a 2 RAC running on CentOS 64 bit 5.911203 node. In order to update to 11204, first I upgraded GI to 11204, and now I am trying to downgrade the back, just to have a restoration plan in place, before also moving the DB. My downgrade did not ($OLD_GRID_HOME/bin/crsctl start crs does nothing), so I'll try again because I think that I made a mistake when executing $NEW_GRID_HOME/crs/install/rootcrs.pl (I had executed it without the lastnode - on both nodes, and then I ran again in the node of the OCR) (, this time using the parameter - lastnode).

  Everything is fine when I am running on node 2 (node no - OCR):

  # /u01/app/11.2.0/grid_2/perl/bin/perl /u01/app/11.2.0/grid_2/crs/install/rootcrs.pl-downgrade - oldcrshome /u01/app/11.2.0/grid-version 11.2.0.3.0

  Downgraded successfully Oracle Clusterware stack on this node

  But when I run it on node 1, in aid of lastnode (because that is the crux of the OCR), I get an error:

  Not a version valid grid Infrastructure. The version is /u01/app/11.2.0/grid_2/crs/install/crsconfig_lib.pm line 9882.

  Unfortunately, this error will return no results in google or MOS! ("Invalid... "), and this file (crsconfig_lib.pm) does not seem to help too, because in this line, I see only this:

  validity of version #check

  If (scalar (@ver)! = 5) {}

  Die ("not a grid Infrastructure valid version. The resulting version is @ver");

  }

  trace ("version active CRS got: '.comes ('. ', @ver) '");

  return @ver;

  I also tried it with the - force parameter, but doesn't seem to change anything.

  Any help with this downgrade will be highly appreciated.

  Its at this point, I normally abandon on the downgrade and then completely remove GI and start from a new installation of the lower version. If you need information on the withdrawal of the GI, let me know.

  See you soon,.

• ASMCA need to Oracle Grid Infrastructure Configuration ASM - 11 GR 2 on SLES11

  I try to install 11 GR 2 ASM on a new server SLES11. So far I have correctly installed the database software, but the bad now when it comes to install the grid Infrastructure.
  Partitioning and stamping the discs as ASM disks worked fine, oracleasm listdisks give me my disknames as output.
  
  So far so good - in the setup of the network infrastructure, I chose "install and configure the network for a stand-alone server infrastructure."
  The installation worked, I executed the script root.sh without any problems - but ASMCA configuration failed with the following error:
  
  NEWS: Read: error detection of Oracle Grid Infrastructure. ASMCA needs Oracle Grid Infrastructure Configuration ASM.
  
  Unfortunately I couldn't find much about it on the internet - I'm very stuck here...
  
  Any ideas?

  Hello

  There must be a variable set of environment that should not be there.
  You can connect with your normal user (without the oraenv) and do a 'env' and provide your environment variables.

  I suppose that you have set a parameter of ORA_NLS or something similar, that should not be there.
