12cR1 RAC Posts -- 5 : Relocating OCR and VoteDisk

Most default installation guides for Grid Infrastructure will have you creating a DATA Disk Group during the install.  This results in the OCR, the Vote Disk and MGMTDB being created in the same DATA Disk Group.

The proper installation is to have OCR and Vote Disk separated from DATA.  If you create a different Disk Group during the installation, you would have all three components (MGMTDB is new in 12c, did not exist in 11g) and you can have these components properly placed in a non-DATA Disk Group that you create as the default.

But what if they have already been located in DATA ?  Can you relocate them to another Disk Group ?



I start with creating a new Disk Group called OCRVOTE on an existing unused ASM Disk.

I have identified the ASM Disk on /dev/asm-disk4 as available and created a DiskGroup on it.  I have to mount the DiskGroup on the second node as well.  (If I don't mount the DiskGroup on the second node collabn2, I get errors
"PROT-30: The Oracle Cluster Registry location to be added is not usable
PROC-50: The Oracle Cluster Registry location to be added is inaccessible on nodes collabn2."
when attempting to add the OCR on the DiskGroup).

I first used OCRCHECK ("ocrcheck" at the commandline) to list the existing OCR location.  I then used root and OCRCONFIG -ADD to add +OCRVOTE as a location and verified it with OCRCHECK.  I then used OCRCONFIG -DELETE ("ocrconfig -add" and "ocrconfig -delete") to delete the old location.

I could have used "ocrconfig -replace" to replace the OCR location but I prefer ADD and DELETE.



How do I relocate the VoteDisk ?  Since I am using a single DiskGroup and External Redundancy with only 1 Failure Group, I have only 1 VoteDisk.

[root@collabn1 oracle]# crsctl query css votedisk

With ASM as  the location for VoteDisk, I cannot use CRSCTL ADD VOTEDISK  but have to use CRSCTL REPLACE VOTEDISK.

So, I have added a new DiskGroup called OCRVOTE and relocated both OCR and VoteDisk to this new DiskGroup (on disk /dev/asm-disk4).

Can I relocate +MGMTDB ?  I am open to suggestions.

12cR1 RAC Posts -- 4 : Adding a Disk of a different size

How does 12.1.0.2 ASM handle adding a disk of a different size to an existing DiskGroup ?

I currently have 4 disks of 5GB each in 2 DiskGroups

The DATA DiskGroup has 2 disks of 5GB each and the FRA DiskGroup has 1 disk of 5GB.  One disk (identified as DiskNumber=0) is not yet assigned.

What happens if I try to expand the DATA DiskGroup with a Disk of 10GB ?

According to Oracle Support Document 1938950.1, adding a disk of a different size to an existing DiskGroup fails with an error ORA-15410 in 12.1.0.2.  However, that seems to apply to NORMAL or HIGH Redundancy and COMPATIBLE.ASM 12.1.0.2.   Here, I have EXTERNAL Redundancy and COMPATIBLE.ASM 12.1.0.0.0

Do I recommend Disks of different sizes ?  Absolutely *not* in Production.  This is a "play" environment in Virtual Machines on my desktop that I can destroy and recreate anytime.  I can monitor disk usage as well.

12cR1 RAC Posts -- 3 : Convert PolicyManaged DB back to AdminManaged

In the previous post on 12cR1 RAC, I had converted my AdminManaged Database to PolicyManaged.

Here, I convert it back to AdminManaged.

First, I verify that the database is shutdown (note that I have only 1 node of the cluster currently up and running, I don't need both nodes and instances up).

[oracle@collabn1 ~]$ srvctl status database -d RAC
Instance RAC_1 is running on node collabn1
[oracle@collabn1 ~]$ srvctl stop database -d RAC
[oracle@collabn1 ~]$ ps -fuoracle |grep smon
oracle    3422     1  0 09:49 ?        00:00:00 asm_smon_+ASM1
oracle    4882     1  0 09:50 ?        00:00:00 mdb_smon_-MGMTDB
oracle   16889  9821  0 10:08 pts/0    00:00:00 grep smon
[oracle@collabn1 ~]$


Next, I remove the database from the Cluster Registry.

[oracle@collabn1 ~]$ srvctl config database -d RAC
Database unique name: RAC
Database name:
Oracle home: /u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/dbhome_1
Oracle user: oracle

[oracle@collabn1 ~]$ srvctl remove database -d RAC
Remove the database RAC? (y/[n]) y

PRCD-1120 : The resource for database RAC could not be found.
PRCR-1001 : Resource ora.rac.db does not exist
[oracle@collabn1 ~]$


I then remove the defined Server Pool that I used for this database.

[oracle@collabn1 ~]$ srvctl config srvpool
Server pool name: Free
Importance: 0, Min: 0, Max: -1
Category:
Candidate server names:
Server pool name: Generic
Importance: 0, Min: 0, Max: -1

[oracle@collabn1 ~]$ srvctl remove srvpool -serverpool MyPool

Category:
Candidate server names:
Server pool name: Generic
Importance: 0, Min: 0, Max: -1

[oracle@collabn1 ~]$


I then add the database back into the Cluster Registry.

[oracle@collabn1 ~]$ srvctl add database -d RAC \
> -oraclehome /u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/dbhome_1 \
> -pwfile +DATA/RAC/PASSWORD/pwdrac.277.931824933
[oracle@collabn1 ~]$ srvctl config database -d RAC
Database unique name: RAC
Database name:

Oracle user: oracle

Start concurrency:
Stop concurrency:

OSOPER group:
Database instances:
Configured nodes:

[oracle@collabn1 ~]$


I start the second node of the cluster before I configure the instances (Note : I have the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs pfiles created in advance).

[oracle@collabn1 ~]$ srvctl add instance -d RAC -i RAC1 -n collabn1
[oracle@collabn1 ~]$ srvctl add instance -d RAC -i RAC2 -n collabn2
[oracle@collabn1 ~]$ srvctl config database -d RAC
Database unique name: RAC
Database name:
Oracle home: /u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/dbhome_1
Oracle user: oracle

OSDBA group: dba
OSOPER group:
Database instances: RAC1,RAC2
Configured nodes: collabn1,collabn2

[oracle@collabn1 ~]$


I am now ready to start the database (instances).

[oracle@collabn1 ~]$ srvctl start database -d RAC
[oracle@collabn1 ~]$ srvctl status database -d RAC
Instance RAC1 is running on node collabn1
Instance RAC2 is running on node collabn2

Copying a Tablespace from NonCDB to a PDB (using TTS)

A Tablespace can be "transported"  from a NonCDB to a PDB as a way of copying the Tablespace.  Here I work with ASM as well.

First in the NonCDB :

[oracle@ora12102 Desktop]$ . oraenv
ORACLE_SID = [oracle] ? NONCDB
The Oracle base remains unchanged with value /u01/app/oracle
[oracle@ora12102 Desktop]$ sqlplus '/ as sysdba'

The key error is the failure on the ORDERS table creation because of a TimeZone mismatch !   So, there is a lesson to be learnt !

The view does NOT show how much of the input/output was for ArchiveLogs.  It clubs ArchiveLogs and the controlfile autobackup under the   single entry for "DB INCR".   Anyone reading this row from V$RMAN_BACKUP_JOB_DETAILS would NOT know if ArchiveLogs had been backed-up, would NOT know if a controlfile/spfile autobackup was created.  See Ibrahim's correction in the comments.
Furtheremore, if there is a failure (e.g. only the last ArchiveLog backupset failed ?), would you be able to identify what has successfully been backed up.  Also see my previous blog post.
