Subject: Conversion from NON-RAC to RAC using Mounted FS.... Basic Qs  

Folks  

Request a review of the following Steps for Conversion of NON RAC Database to RAC using Mounted Filesystems.

Am NOT able to find the same in the Oracle 10g Documentation  

Configuration

Solaris 10 , Oracle 10.2

NON-RAC Database existing on UFS

RAC Database to exist on Veritas SFRAC ver 5  

Qs How will the names (with paths) for the Redologfiles of the 2nd instance be specified? Is it's creation to be Coupled with Step 3 below?  

Any Links, Docs on Conversion will help.  

Thanks indeed    

STEPS - For 2 node / instance RAC  

1. In the initRACOL1.ora Set the following parameter (1 Time) in addition to the required RAC parameters mentioned below in Appendix

_no_recovery_through_resetlogs=TRUE  

2. RE-Create the Controlfile  

"startup nomount" & Run the Trace SQL file for RE-Creating the Controlfile  

3. Add the 2nd thread

SQL>ALTER DATABASE ENABLE PUBLIC THREAD 2;   4. Remove the following from initRACOL1.ora  

_no_recovery_through_resetlogs=TRUE    

APPENDIX   Sample initRACOL1.ora  

*.db_name = RACOL

*.cluster_database=true

*.cluster_database_instances=2

*.service_names='RACOL' # is same as db_name
 

RACOL1.instance_name=RACOL1

RACOL1.thread=1

RACOL1.instance_number=1

RACOL1.undo_tablespace=UNDO_TABLESPACE1  

RACOL2.instance_name=RACOL2

RACOL2.thread=2

RACOL2.instance_number=2

RACOL2.undo_tablespace=UNDO_TABLESPACE2  

RACOL1.LOCAL_LISTENER='LISTENER_RAC1' RACOL2.LOCAL_LISTENER='LISTENER_RAC2'
