BACKGROUND:
GRID/RAC:10.2.0.1 => 10.2.0.4
SCENARIO:
1.When install Grid 10.2.0.1, there was an error when run root.sh such as below:
…
Oracle CRS stack installed and running under init(1M)
Running vipca(silent) for configuring nodeapps
The given interface(s), “lan0” is not public. Public interfaces should be used to configure virtual IPs.
Due to the public NIC used a IP address “10.211.*.*” which considered as private network. So manually add nodeapps:
# /app/grid/bin/srvctl add nodeapps -n node1 -o /app/grid -A 10.211.161.130/255.255.255.0/lan0
2. Unfortunately I used a wrong netmask and again used public physical IP but not a virtual IP. So vip, listener and nodeapps were
offline. Modify the nodeapps and restart it.
# /app/grid/bin/srvctl modify nodeapps -n node1 -A 10.211.163.80/255.255.240.0/lan0
# /app/grid/bin/srvctl start nodeapps -n node1
To know what is the nodeapps configuration in particular for VIP, issue the command:
# /app/grid/bin/srvctl config nodeapps -n node1 -a -l -g -s
VIP exists.: /node1-v.us.oracle.com/10.211.163.80/255.255.240.0/lan0
GSD exists.
ONS daemon exists.
Listener exists.
3. Hit an issue again.
CRS-1006: No more members to consider
CRS-0215: Could not start resource ‘ora.node1.vip’.
Stop nodeapps and modify script $ORA_CRS_HOME/bin/racgvip to change the value of variable FAIL_WHEN_DEFAULTGW_NOT_FOUND=0 . Then
start nodeapps.
4.The listener still cannot start.
TNS-12542: TNS:address already in use
TNS-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
TNS-00512: Address already in use
HPUX Error: 226: Address already in use
Use $ORA_RAC_HOME/bin/netca to delete and add a listener again.
5.Then we can see all the resources are online now:
# /app/grid/bin/crs_stat -t
Name Type Target State Host
