Andrew,

Help me out here because I can't figure out how you are seeing the same SID on two different nodes for RAC One Node.

[oracle_at_odabase1 ~]$ srvctl config database -d racone Database unique name: racone
Database name: racone
Type: RACOneNode
Instance name prefix: racone
Candidate servers: odabase1,odabase2
Database is administrator managed
[oracle_at_odabase1 ~]$ export ORACLE_SID=racone [oracle_at_odabase1 ~]$ sqlplus / as sysdba
