Manually creating RAC 2 node instance - problems
396953Dec 27 2007 — edited Dec 27 2007I installed Oracle 9i RAC (9.2.0.7) on two nodes with RHEL 3.0AS.
There were some problems invoking dbca, so i created RAC database manually.
http://ocpdba.net/oracle9i_rac/manual9i.html
as suggested in this article, i was proceeding all the steps. Till step 11 all were working fine in first instance. At step 12, they are asking to start the second instance; after creating the second undo tablespace, creating second thread of redo logs and enabling them. while i do that i get the following error.
-bash-2.05b$ srvctl start instance -d brpt -i brpt2
PRKP-1001 : Error starting instance brpt2 on node ora02
ORA-01079: ORACLE database was not properly created, operation aborted
SQL> s 805306368 bytes
Redo Buffers 1191936 bytes
eserved.
Enter user-name:
-bash-2.05b$
I get this error, or this error.
ORA:01183: cannot mount database in shared mode.
As per docs, since its second instance it has to startup without any problems, as its able to see the shared device. the problem is that it starts up the instance initializing all memory parameters and all background processes, but still doesnt mount or open the second instance.
Could anyone help me...
