Oracle Grid Cluster Installation With NFS - page 3

Prev< 1 2 3 4 5 >Next

CLUSTER VERIFY

So far, what we had prepared for the Oracle Grid cluster installation are:

The required network setup

Public node VIPs
Private IP configuration for cluster interconnect
SCAN IP configured at host file

Setup of OS Group and the Grid user (oragrid)
The NFS repository for the OCR data and Vote data.
The SSH key authentication for the Grid user.

Now, it is time to run the cluster verify script (runcluvfy.sh) to validate all our prep work.

Checking node connectivity...

Checking hosts config file...

Verification of the hosts config file successful

Node connectivity passed for subnet "172.16.33.0" with node(s) s11node2,s11node1

TCP connectivity check passed for subnet "172.16.33.0"

Node connectivity passed for subnet "192.168.65.0" with node(s) s11node2,s11node1

Starting check for consistency of primary group of root user

Check for consistency of root user's primary group passed

Starting Clock synchronization checks using Network Time Protocol(NTP)...

NTP Configuration file check started...

No NTP Daemons or Services were found to be running

Clock synchronization check using Network Time Protocol(NTP) passed

Core file name pattern consistency check passed.

User "oragrid" is not part of "root" group. Check passed

Default user file creation mask check passed

Checking consistency of file "/etc/resolv.conf" across nodes

File "/etc/resolv.conf" does not have both domain and search entries defined

domain entry in file "/etc/resolv.conf" is consistent across nodes

All nodes have one domain entry defined in file "/etc/resolv.conf"

Checking all nodes to make sure that domain is "vlabs.net private.net" as found on node "s11node2"

All nodes of the cluster have same value for 'domain'

search entry in file "/etc/resolv.conf" is consistent across nodes

The DNS response time for an unreachable node is within acceptable limit on all nodes

File "/etc/resolv.conf" is consistent across nodes

Time zone consistency check passed

Pre-check for cluster services setup was unsuccessful on all the nodes.

oragrid@s11node1:~/install/grid$

NOTE: At this point you would notice that there was a failure on group check which is ok since I named the OS groups different from the default. The swap space warning can also be ignored.

RUN ORACLE GRID INSTALLER

If you are using an SSH terminal within a Microsoft Windows environment connecting to the primary node s11node1, make sure that you have an X11 forwarding enabled to display the Unix X Windows GUI. Details to set this up is found on my article - X11 Forwarding In Solaris 11. In my case, my terminal is running in Solaris Gnome environment, so there is no need for X11 forwarding setup.

Now, let’s run the 11g Grid installer and the Download Software window should appear.

oragrid@s11node1:~/install/grid$ ./runInstaller

Starting Oracle Universal Installer...

Checking Temp space: must be greater than 180 MB. Actual 4839 MB Passed

Checking swap space: must be greater than 150 MB. Actual 5500 MB Passed

Checking monitor: must be configured to display at least 256 colors. Actual 16777216 Passed

Preparing to launch Oracle Universal Installer from /tmp/OraInstall2015-04-16_10-58-46AM. Please wait ...
