<description>&#60;p&#62;Hi,&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I am getting problem while starting the CRS. Below is the necessary details:&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;1) I am using oracle 11g R2 RAC, with 2 node named RAC1 and RAC2&#60;br /&#62;
2) I have 3 diskgroup named DATA, DATA1, DATA2&#60;br /&#62;
3) OCR and voting disks are stored on ASM diskgroup&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;On node RAC1, CRS is started and /etc/oracle/ocr.loc is having the below entry:&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;ocrconfig_loc=+DATA&#60;br /&#62;
ocrmirrorconfig_loc=+DATA1&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;On node RAC2, CRS is stopped and /etc/oracle/ocr.loc is having the below entry:&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;ocrconfig_loc=+DATA&#60;br /&#62;
ocrmirrorconfig_loc=+DATA2&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Please note the difference in &#34;ocrmirrorconfig_loc&#34;. The difference was occured because I updated the OCR location on RAC1 when RAC2 was down.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Now I am trying to repair the OCR on the RAC2 using below command. This command must be run as root user when HA service is started but CRS must be stopped.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;ocrconfig -repair -replace +DAT2 -replacement +DATA1&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;but this showing error &#34;PROT-21: Invalid parameter&#34;, because to run this command diskgroup must be mounted. But diskgroup cannot be mounted until the CRS start. SO this is a conflicting situation.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Please suggest how to overcome from this problem ?&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Please let me know if you required any other details.
&#60;/p&#62;</description>

<description>&#60;p&#62;Hi,&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I have a two node RAC Cluster Setup (10R2) and I want to execute sql queries from a shell script, to be run as root.&#60;br /&#62;
I have the foll test.sh script&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;#! /bin/bash&#60;br /&#62;
echo &#34;In BASH&#34;&#60;br /&#62;
sqlplus / &#38;lt;&#38;lt;+ENDOFSQL+&#60;br /&#62;
select name, path from v$asm_disk;&#60;br /&#62;
exit&#60;br /&#62;
+ENDOFSQL+&#60;br /&#62;
echo &#34;Back to Bash&#34;&#60;br /&#62;
exit&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;and I get the foll O/P&#60;br /&#62;
In BASH&#60;/p&#62;

&#60;p&#62;What permissions should for this?&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;2) Also I need to know the node names of the nodes that form the clustre. I add the foll lines to my script&#60;br /&#62;

echo $NODE_NAMES&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;ad I get O/P&#60;br /&#62;

Is it possible to store these space separated node names in diff variables that can then be used. (the number of nodes are variable)&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Any suggestion/advise is appreciated. Thanks

<description>&#60;p&#62;Hi&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I have a 2node RAC Setup 10gR2.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I have three ASM Volumes configured, out of devices sdb2, sdb3, sdb4&#60;br /&#62;
/etc/init.d/oracleasm createdisk VOL1 /dev/sdb2&#60;br /&#62;
/etc/init.d/oracleasm createdisk VOL2 /dev/sdb3&#60;br /&#62;
/etc/init.d/oracleasm createdisk VOL3 /dev/sdb4.&#60;br /&#62;
where VOL1 &#38;amp; VOL2 belong to the Disk Group ORCL_DATA1 and Vol3 to the group FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I want to use the multipath disks namely /dev/multipath/sdb2, /dev/multipath/sdb3 and /dev/multipath/sdb4 for asm volumes.&#60;br /&#62;
I created the multipath disks on node1 and edited the file /etc/sysconfig/oracleasm and set ORACLEASM_SCANORDER=&#34;multipath&#34; and&#60;br /&#62;
ORACLEASM_SCANEXCLUDE=&#34;sdb2 sdb3 sdb4&#34;.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;After a Reboot, the crs_stat shows&#60;br /&#62;

&#60;p&#62;I am new to the multipathing concept. Plz advise, on what (above) steps are wrong and what additional things are to be taken care of.&#60;br /&#62;
And the causes/solutions to the errors.

<description>&#60;p&#62;Hi wisers,&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I have a project implementation with oracle RAC,&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;the necessities are, Oracle 8, oracle 9 and Oracle 10,&#60;br /&#62;
because we have deferents front ends,&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;But we need considerate make this implementation in&#60;br /&#62;
oracle rac,&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I think that, the solution is oracle rac in virtualization,&#60;br /&#62;
but yours have another propose,&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Best regards,&#60;/p&#62;
