Why have 2 network adapters for RAC
Hello Guys,
We are in process of installing Database 10g RAC R2 on windows platform. The network requirements of RAC incluides at least 2 network adapters for public interface and private interface. Our database will be accessed within the Private Network only, no public access. Even then i have to install 2 network adaptors?
One of the screen during installation of clusterware dont allow you move forward... without giving the private, public and virtual names of the node... is there any way to skip it?
Another question is how can we assign virtual IP addresses?
Please help.
Regards,
Imran
