Network Configuration for RAC Nodes/NAS Server/DNS Host:
Public, VIPs and SCAN VIPs are resolved by DNS. The private IPs for Cluster Interconnects are resolved through /etc/hosts. The hostname along with public/private and NAS network is configured at the time of OEL network installations. The final Network Configurations files are listed here.
(a) hostname:
For Node node1:
[root@node1 ~]# hostname node1.hingu.net
node1.hingu.net: /etc/sysconfig/network
NETWORKING=yes
NETWORKING_IPV6=yes
HOSTNAME=node1.hingu.net
For Node node2:
[root@node2 ~]# hostname node2.hingu.net
node2.hingu.net: /etc/sysconfig/network
NETWORKING=yes
NETWORKING_IPV6=yes
HOSTNAME=node2.hingu.net
For Node node3:
[root@node3 ~]# hostname node3.hingu.net
node3.hingu.net: /etc/sysconfig/network
NETWORKING=yes
NETWORKING_IPV6=yes
HOSTNAME=node3.hingu.net
For Node nas-server:
[root@nas-server ~]# hostname nas-server
nas-server: /etc/sysconfig/network
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=nas-server
For Node lab-dns:
[root@lab-dns ~]# hostname lab-dns
\
lab-dns.hingu.net: /etc/sysconfig/network
NETWORKING=yes
NETWORKING_IPV6=yes
HOSTNAME=nas-server

Install cvuqdisk Package: (On all the RAC Nodes):
This package is located in the rpm directory on Clusterware Media and needs to be installed after the group oinstall is created. In my case, as this was a fresh install of 10g R2 on a new machines, old versions of cvuqdisk was not present. If it is, then the older version needs to be removed first.
export CVUQDISK_GRP=oinstall
echo $CVUQDISK
rpm –ivh cvuqdisk-1.0.1-1.rpm
[root@node1 rpm]# pwd
/home/oracle/10gr2/clusterware/rpm

Configure Oracle RAC Owner’s User Environment (oracle):
(a) Set the umask to 022 by putting below line into these users’ (oracle) .bash_profile files:
umask 022
Then, executed the .bash_profile and verified that the correct value of umask is displayed.
[oracle@node1 ~]$ . .bash_profile
[oracle@node1 ~]$ umask
(b) Setting up X11 forwarding:
Created the file ~/.ssh/config to disable the X11Forwadding by placing below line in it.
Host *
ForwardX11 no
(c) Suppressed the Terminal output on STDOUT and STDERR to prevent Installation errors:
Modified the file ~/.bashrc (or .cshrc for C shell) with below entry.
Bourne, Bash, or Korn shell:
if [ -t 0 ]; then
stty intr ^C
fi
C shell:
test -t 0
if ($status == 0) then
stty intr ^C
endif
(d) Increased the Shell Limits:

Added the following line in the /etc/pam.d/login file, if it does not already exist:

ulimit -p 131072
ulimit -n 131072
else

For the C shell (csh or tcsh), add the following lines to the /etc/csh.login.
if ( $USER == "oracle" ) then
limit maxproc 131072
limit descriptors 131072
endif
(e) Set the below Kernel Parameters with recommended range in /etc/sysctl.conf. This was already set with the installation of oracle-validated package. I had to uncomment the lines related to 10g parameters and comment the same parameters for 11g. After the modification, ran the sysctl –p to enable the changes..

(d) Created the file /etc/udev/rules.d/99-crs.rules to label the scsi devices with the appropriate name so that after reboot of machine their name remain persistent every time.

(e) Reloaded the udev rules and started the udev services to make the changes effective.
udevcontrol reload_rules start_udev
(f) Verified that these disks now using Following command
ls -l /dev/ocrdisk*
ls -l /dev/votingdisk*
ls -la /dev/disk/by-path/ | grep openfiler |awk '{print &9 &10 &11}'
(g) Created the Raw Bindings for OCR and Voting Devices (On All the RAC Nodes).
Placed the below lines into the /etc/sysconfig/rawdevices
# raw device bindings
# format: <rawdev> <major> <minor>
# <rawdev> <blockdev>
# example: /dev/raw/raw1 /dev/sda1
# /dev/raw/raw2 8 5
/dev/raw/raw1 /dev/ocrdisk01
/dev/raw/raw2 /dev/ocrdisk02
/dev/raw/raw3 /dev/votingdisk01
/dev/raw/raw4 /dev/votingdisk02
/dev/raw/raw5 /dev/votingdisk03
Change the permissions and ownership of the raw devices as shown below.
chown root:oinstall /dev/raw/raw1
chown root:oinstall /dev/raw/raw2
chown oracle:oinstall /dev/raw/raw3
chown oracle:oinstall /dev/raw/raw4
chown oracle:oinstall /dev/raw/raw5
chmod 640 /dev/raw/raw1
chmod 640 /dev/raw/raw2
chmod 640 /dev/raw/raw3
chmod 640 /dev/raw/raw4
chmod 640 /dev/raw/raw5
Restart the service rawdevices on all the nodes.
service rawdevices restart
Because the ownerships and permissions on the raw devices get reset to root on every reboot, the above lines were placed into /etc/rc.local to set the permissions back to oracle user after the reboot. (ON all the RAC Nodes):
/etc/rc.local:
[root@node1 sysconfig]# cat /etc/rc.local
#!/bin/sh
#
# This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts.
# You can put your own initialization stuff in here if you don't
# want to do the full Sys V style init stuff.
touch /var/lock/subsys/local
chown root:oinstall /dev/raw/raw1
chown root:oinstall /dev/raw/raw2
chown oracle:oinstall /dev/raw/raw3
chown oracle:oinstall /dev/raw/raw4
chown oracle:oinstall /dev/raw/raw5
chmod 640 /dev/raw/raw1
chmod 640 /dev/raw/raw2
chmod 640 /dev/raw/raw3
chmod 640 /dev/raw/raw4
chmod 640 /dev/raw/raw5
Configure the iSCSI disk Devices for Oracle ASM with ASMLib:
(a) Verified that the below RPMs are installed before configuring the ASM driver.
oracleasm-2.6.18-194.el5-2.0.5-1.el5
oracleasm-support-2.1.3-1.el5
oracleasm-2.6.18-194.el5xen-2.0.5-1.el5
oracleasm-2.6.18-194.el5PAE-2.0.5-1.el5
oracleasm-2.6.18-194.el5debug-2.0.5-1.el5
oracleasmlib-2.0.4-1.el5
(a) Configured the ASMLib (All the RAC nodes):
Provide the oracleasm owner “oracle” and group “oinstall” while configuring the oracleasm.
oracleasm configure –i
(e) Loaded the ASMLib Module (All the RAC nodes):
[root@node1 ~]# oracleasm init
(f) Created the ASM disks using oracleasm: (ONLY from one of the RAC nodes)
oracleasm createdisk DATADSK01 /dev/sdd1
oracleasm createdisk FRADSK02 /dev/sde1
oracleasm scandisks
oracleasm listdisks
(g) On the Remaining RAC nodes, simply scanned the ASM disks to instantiate these newly created disks
oracleasm scandisks
oracleasm listdisks
(h) Verified that these ASM disk can be discovered by ASM Libraries (oracleasmlib) on all the RAC Nodes during Creation of ASM Disks.
Connected as “oracle” user and ran the below command
/usr/sbin/oracleasm-discover 'ORCL:*'
[oracle@node1 ~]# /usr/sbin/oracleasm-discover 'ORCL:*'
Using ASMLib from /opt/oracle/extapi/32/asm/orcl/1/libasm.so
[ASM Library - Generic Linux, version 2.0.4 (KABI_V2)]
Discovered disk: ORCL:DATADSK01 [40959968 blocks (20971503616 bytes), maxio 512]
