Enter OS Information: h Enter the appropriate User Name, Organization, and Product ID. i Enter all other necessary information. j Install SNMP (default). NOTE: If you have the Dell OpenManage CD and want to install it during your OS install, select Install Server Administrator. The Server Administrator can be installed anytime after the OS is installed. Installation Summary: k Eject CD/DVD Automatically (default).
CAUTION: Do not leave the administrator password blank. NOTE: To configure the public network properly, the computer name and public host name must be identical. NOTE: Record the password that you created in this step. You will need this information in step 14. When the installation procedure completes, the Welcome to Windows window appears. 12 Shut down the system, reconnect all external storage devices, and restart the system. 13 In the Welcome to Windows window, press to continue.
22 Run install_drivers.bat NOTE: This procedure may take several minutes to complete. 23 Press any key to continue. 24 Check the logs to verify that all drivers were installed correctly. NOTE: Log information can be found at: C:\Dell_Resource_CD\logs 25 When installation is complete, remove the CD from the CD drive. 26 Reboot your system. Verifying the Temporary Directory Paths Verify that the paths to the Temp and Tmp directories have been set correctly.
• HBA drivers. • PowerVault MD3000 Resource CD (when using the PowerVault MD3000 as backend storage) The storage must be configured with a minimum of four virtual disks/LUNs (two for the redundant Voting Disk and Oracle Cluster Registry and two for the database and Flash Recovery area) assigned to cluster nodes.

NOTE: Oracle RAC 10g R2 is a complex database configuration that requires an ordered list of procedures. To configure networking and storage in a minimal amount of time, perform the following procedures in order. Configuring the Public and Private Networks NOTE: Each node requires a unique public and private internet protocol (IP) address and an additional public IP address to serve as the virtual IP address for the client connections and connection failover.
Table 1-7. Network Configuration Example for a Two-Node Cluster Host Name Type IP Address Registered In rac1 Public 155.16.170.1 %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts rac2 Public 155.16.170.2 %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts rac1-vip Virtual 155.16.170.201 %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts rac2-vip Virtual 155.16.170.202 %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts rac1-priv Private 10.10.10.1 %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts rac2-priv Private 10.10.10.

PowerPath Installation • PROBLEM: PowerPath installation fails. – CAUSE: Unknown installation error. – RESOLUTION: Reboot the system on which the PowerPath installation fails. NIC Teaming • PROBLEM: Broadcom NIC teaming fails. – CAUSE: The following steps may result in a NIC teaming failure: • One of the Broadcom NICs that was used in the NIC teaming fails or is disabled. Due to the availability of the second NIC, the private network is still active on this node through the second NIC.
NOTE: Though the suggested solutions may fix the above mentioned issue, be aware of the implications or issues that may arise from enabling Port Fast Learning or turning off Spanning Tree on your switches. Installing Oracle Clusterware • PROBLEM: During Clusterware installation you get the error message: The specified nodes are not clusterable. – CAUSE: The administrative or the account used to install Oracle has a blank password associated with it.
a Uninstall Oracle Clusterware using OUI. b Uninstall any remaining Oracle services. c Clean the storage devices. See "Uninstalling Oracle Clusterware" on page 56 for more information. Oracle Clusterware • 64 PROBLEM: The cluster node restarts with a blue screen. – CAUSE: The cluster node cannot communicate with the storage disks. – RESOLUTION: Perform the following steps: a Restart the cluster node. b During POST, press .
See "Installing the Host-Based Software Needed for Storage" on page 27 and "Verifying Multi-Path Driver Functionality" on page 29. o Repeat step a through step n and reset each Oracle service back to its original setting. System Blue Screen • PROBLEM: The cluster nodes generate a blue screen. – CAUSE: The cluster nodes cannot access the voting disk.
Storage • PROBLEM: Disks appear as unreachable. – CAUSE: On the Windows desktop, when you right-click My Computer, select Computer Management, and then click Disk Management, the disks appear unreachable. Potential causes are that the LUNs are not assigned to the cluster nodes, cabling is incorrectly installed, or the HBA drivers are not installed on the cluster node(s).
– CAUSE: The public network adapter interface (or the network interface assigned for VIP in case 4 network interfaces) name is not identical on both cluster nodes. – RESOLUTION: Ensure that the public network adapter interface name is identical on both cluster nodes. To verify the public network adapter interface name: a On node 1, click Start and select Settings→Control Panel→Network Connections.
