Protect the single instance Oracle 11 g 2 with Clusterware linux No 11 GR 2 RAC

Hi all

I saw this link, but he mentions CARS as a solution:

Use of Oracle Clusterware to protect a single Instance Oracle Database 11g

I have seen various articles on protection one instance with cold recovery using clusterware, but they mention the scripts and the old versions of Clusterware. I'm trying to figure if possible to incorporate the virtual IP / scanning of listeners or if it is still a supported configuration...



I implemented the 11 GR 2 using OCFS2 clusterware. Basically I just want cold failover from one node to another, and I don't want to buy a CAR license...

Thank you very much

Hi Vcovco,

You must understand, that a VIP (host) works correctly for Oracle in conjunction with a listener to listen on the virtual IP address.
Now, if a VIP (host) fails over to another node, the local listener won't. So even if you can ping the VIP no client can make connections. This VIP, since there is no listener listening on this VIP on the foreign host. (But the client will get a denunciation pronto to browse more through his address list).
However, SCAN VIPs work differently, because they have an earpiece connected to them, which will also fail over to another node. This is why permits be accepted, if current running on the other node (as the listener moves with the SWEEP VIP).

That is why in the past, you had to create a VIP 'user' and a 'user' listener, that there will be a changeover of the two (not like the Oracle of VIP welcome). A VIP SCAN done exactly that, it is not necessary for a 'user' VIP and the listener (However it still work!).

a.) every DBA should make backups using RMAN in the meantime...
(b) there is also a copy of asmcd command

With regard to the advantages over OCFS2
-best performance (almost RAW)
-easier to extend (no need to resize)
-no hot spots if storage is extended, because storage is automatically rebalanced.
See here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/asm/db-tuning-guesswork-173710.pdf
-consolidation easier
To name a few.

Another thing no one mentions:
With OCFS2, you have a second clusterware running on the server. OCFS2 has its own mechanism of fencing.
We must therefore consider some things more 'correlate' fencing OCFS2 and fencing OCW. Not that differently, they decide on what node restart.

So my advice is: keep it simple. Use only the 1 clusterware.

And last but not least: ASM now has a system of files ACFS

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

    Hi all

    I would use Oracle Grid Infrastructure to protect a single instance database.
    I found these documents:

    I was unable to find a similar document for 11.2 GI. Do you know if such a document exists?

    At the moment I only know that the IM is free if used for Oracle products, but I'm not shure if it can be used for external applications one-time protext or databases

    Andrea

    Hello

    While it is still working (failover scripts you find in the demo folder $GI_HOME7/src/demo/coldfailover), the document does not exist, because with 11 GR 2, there is a solution to support called RAC ONE node, so make the manual configuration of obsolete.

  • Single Instance Oracle 11.2.0.4.7 with GRID + ASM - AMT headphone attack Poison Fix?

    I'm under a single Instance Oracle 11.2.0.4.7 with GRID + ASM database on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.7. I'm trying to fix the infamous TNS Listener Poison attack vulnerability. I tried to implement the COST using this guide (Doc ID 1453883.1) but it doesn't seem to work as it still appears on a scan of the retina. I can't get a remote listener to register to test the vulnerability, and it does not appear in the log listener xml as a registration or denied. Don't know what I'm doing wrong.


    I added this to my listener.ora:

    SECURE_REGISTER_LISTENER_PROD = (CPI, TCP)

    The Alternative fix to the COST must turn off dynamic registration but I can do it when executing grid with the DSO with only a single instance database?

    How can I fix with my setup?

  • Primary database is RAC and physical intelligence is the single instance

    Hi all

    I use Oracle RAC 11.2.0.3 as primary database, we will begin to use the Oracle Data Guard.
    I am designing my infrastructure and planing to use single instance Oracle 11.2.0.3 my stand physical database.

    My question is it possible to have my sleep as single instance database while the primary is RAC?
    is it possible to build my Oracle database single instance ensures from the primary database to the RAC, RMAN backup?
    Are there restrictions (or all of the points to consider) as my primary database is CARS while the physics of Eve is the only Oracle instance?

    in the link below
    [http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28294/concepts.htm#i1039416]
    It was mentioned that primary can be CARS or simple and even the day before, but my question is possible to have primary as CARS all on standby as single instance? or it should be like each other?
    The primary database can be either a single-instance Oracle database or an Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) database.
    Similar to a primary database, a standby database can be either a single-instance Oracle database or an Oracle RAC database.

  • Running the Single Instance and RAC on the same server of different homes.

    Hi guys,.

    I already have 4 node RAC12c installed on OLE 6.

    I'm planing on some of my other 12 single instance databases on other migration for RAC nodes.

    Please correct me here if I am wrong...

    My understanding is that, to be able to use DBCA or rconfig for conversion of database instance RAC, the only instance and RAC cluster must run on the same server or machine node.

    Thanks to this understanding... Am planing on the installation of a binary single instance on one of my cluster node node1 say and then use RMAN to duplicate the single instance or just an RMAN restore from the node of the instance that is unique to this node1. Am capable of this plan must then use DBCA or rconfig to convert the CARS database.

    Now, my question is can I run a single instance and RAC on the same server for different homes with different database ports?

    2. for these unique instance that runs on the server RAC 1 node, can I use the RAC database listener that runs from the House of the grid or I have to create another auditor?

    Thank you in advance and also let me know if I can use DBCA or rconfig when the only instance and rac database are on separate nodes.

    K

    Fix. And that's what I would normally do. In general, I would have just an ORACLE_HOME directory that can be used by the punctual and RAC databases at the same time.

    See you soon,.

    3. If the storage is on the San (for example) then is it possible to set up a shell script

    Hello

    Rupture can occur in any level

    1 oracle FailSafe with SAN?

    --> Do check if you have failure in storage, your security will do nothing to bring back data

    --> Seen failsafe, will be only the insurance when MS cluster moving the disc and services to different node, configured services starts.

    2. What is the security integrated on linux centos/oel solution?

    --> Under linux, you need to set the scripts to run, and you can check the option on the cluster OS

    3. If the storage is on the San (for example) then it is possible to configure a shell script that detects if data source is down for 5 minutes, mount SAN stored the files of database on the remote computer and

    change the ip in the application, so it will never connect to the source ip address

    --> This you will get a cluster of BONES...

    Points to note:

    ================

    --> If there is power failure sudden, we can expect there may be lost writing in your data block, which will bring the inconsistency to your data file and redo

    --> Here, there is problem with your drive?

    --> If there is problem with your complete domain controller (how will you mount FS to a remote server?)

    Note what we are discussing was HA and you try to keep an idle server all the time (you have a server with more RAM & CPU)

    Why you can't check an option of CARS, can also have the cluster extension...

    And to avoid the loss of data and to meet the RPO and RTO in all time (same DC came down, storage failure, server crash), you may need to use Oracle data guard...

  • "Rolling upgrade" method is applicable to the single instance of database?

    Hello

    I did a google search, but all the documents I found refer to the deployment of upgrade for JRC and DG Environment. Rolling upgrade can be used to upgrade, say Oracle 10.2.0.4 to 10.2.0.5? Or in general, the method "rolling upgrade" applicable to database specific environments? If Yes, could someone post a URL? I want to learn this in order to minimize downtime for upgrades of database.

    Thanks in advance!

    As far as I KNOW, rolling upgrade applies only to CARS or DG scenarios. It does not apply to single autonomous databases.

  • Parameters for the single instance of DCOM for multiple users on the same machine

    I have a DCOM on a Windows 2008 R2, Enterprise Edition machine. I would like to be able to open an instance of the DCOM and have it accessible by multiple users on the same machine, i.e. users connected to Windows accounts.

    What settings will do? In the tab 'identity' in dcomconfg for my DCOM object settings, I tried "interactive user", 'the user running' and 'this user', all three lead to the same result: start a new instance DCOM on easch Windows of the connected customer accounts, despite the existence of bodies being already running on other accounts. This baffles me, especially with the third alternative, 'this user', which should certainly lead to all proceedings being started by this specific account? This is not the case.

  • HTTP session and app spring within the single instance of tcServer can connect to separate the GemFire instances?

    In a JVM tcServer, we use the session HTTP GemFire module and also have our own spring application using GemFire.

    Is it valid for the session module to connect to an instance of GemFire via cache.xml and have the Spring application context to connect to an instance of completely separate GemFire (different benchmarks & cache server)?

    To do this, you must ensure that the use of the application of your spring Gemfire is isolated from the session management. Essentially, all you need is to group the jar with your application of spring gemfire. Chargers classes separate webapp then takes care of separation Gemfire contexts.

    Hello

    Technically, there is nothing wrong in what you do. Since your log message, it seems, has already CSS configured on your system and is not in a working state.
    I would recommend, reconfiguration of the CSS.

    Complete the following as root user.

  • 10.2.0.4 patch on the database ensure single instance

    Hi all

    We have a production base 10.2.0.3 running with CARS having 2 nodes on Solaris 10. We have fixed this
    databases for 10.2.0.4 (two nodes) on production without any problem.

    We have a database of physical standby (10.2.0.3) with 2 nodes on solaris 10. But we stopped node2 sometimes
    back and currently is a database of pending of the single instance. New whe trying to apply the patch to frame watch
    It shows that the two nodes during installation and the installation fails when he tries to look for node2.

    What is the solution for this problem? Any document on how patch on the day before the only instance of database when
    the production runs in the CARS.

    I think you're basically saying that you have a 2 RAC cluster with node 1 down (possibly permanently) and you want to just patch 1 nodes?

    It's not too surprising the installer is by train to connect the other node when in your inventory is you have a 2 cluster nodes.

    Have you tried to run the installer with the option - local?

    This should just patch your local node. Of course the dictionary changes will be applied through MRP from the primary database.

  • On RAC primary DB and a single Instance as physical Standby...

    It's my 11g Data Guard scenario:

    BECAUSE primary database 11g.

    Single Instance Oracle 11g.

    My first question is:

    If each node of the RAC has 3 online redo log, should I create 4 or 7 journal watch over the database pending?

    If restore database Standby long after the day I do full backup and I've got ti registry manually archived newspapers, what I do for a node of the RAC archived logs of the two?

    Thank you very much.

    In form 7
    You must register for both nodes. Remember that you have a LGWR instance, so a redolog thread instance and the two wires together are all changes to the database.
    Please make sure that in this configuration of the archived redo logs are on a shared disk.
