How to Shutdown Oracle Real Application Clusters Database ?
Here, We will start with stopping resources from Enterprise Manager Grid Control to Oracle Cluster ware or CRS process and will end at stopping CRS services. Here I am taking an example of Two node RAC database to perform all operations. Steps followed are as:1. Shutdown Oracle Home process accessing database.
2. Shutdown RAC Database Instances on all nodes.
3. Shutdown All ASM instances from all nodes.
4. Shutdown Node applications running on nodes.
5. Shut down the Oracle Cluster ware or CRS.
1. Shutdown Oracle Home process accessing database: There could be oracle and non Oracle application which access database, So first step is to stop all the applications or DBA should inform application owner and he should stop all applications accessing Database. DBA should also stop Oracle application like Enterprise Manager Grid Control and Database Listener which access database for monitoring and database connections.
[oracle@database ~]$ emctl stop dbconsole Oracle Enterprise Manager 11g Database Control Release 11.2.0.2.0 Copyright (c) 1996, 2010 Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved. https://database.example.com:5500/em/console/aboutApplication Stopping Oracle Enterprise Manager 11g Database Control ... ... Stopped. [grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl stop listener -n node1 [grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl status listener -n node1 Listener LISTENER is enabled on node(s): node1 Listener LISTENER is not running on node(s): node1
2. Shutdown RAC Database Instances on all nodes: Suppose DBA has two node RAC database, So he has to stop all instances from all DB nodes. Here, I am taking an example of two node RAC. First, I am checking on which server database is running and then stopping and verify for the same.
Syntax: srvctl stop database -d {databasename}
[oracle@node2 ~]$ srvctl status database -d oradb Instance oradb1 is running on node node1 Instance oradb2 is running on node node2 [oracle@node2 ~]$ srvctl stop database -d oradb [oracle@node2 ~]$ srvctl status database -d oradb Instance oradb1 is not running on node node1 Instance oradb2 is not running on node node2
We just need to execute one command from any one of the server having database and it will stop all database instances on all servers. If you have more than one database configured on Nodes, then Database Administrator has to execute this command for each database.
3. Shutdown All ASM instances from all nodes: Next DBA has to shut down an ASM instance which are used to acess database, enter the following command, where node is the
name of the node where the ASM instance is running
Syntax: srvctl stop asm -n {node}
[grid@node2 oracle]# srvctl stop asm -n node1 -f [grid@node2 oracle]# srvctl stop asm -n node2 -f [grid@node2 oracle]# srvctl status asm -n node1 ASM is not running on node1 [grid@node2 oracle]# srvctl status asm -n node2 ASM is not running on node2
Sometimes, Database administrator face some issues in stopping ASM instance, In that case use "-f" option to forcefully shutdown ASM instances.
4. Shutdown Node applications running on nodes: To stop node applications running on a node, enter the following command, where node is the name of the node where the applications are running
[grid@node2 oracle]# srvctl stop nodeapps -n node1 -f [grid@node2 oracle]# srvctl status nodeapps -n node1 VIP node1-vip is enabled VIP node1-vip is running on node: node1 Network is enabled Network is running on node: node1 GSD is disabled GSD is not running on node: node1 ONS is enabled ONS daemon is running on node: node1
Repeat same command for all nodes one by one. If you face any issue in stopping node applications use "-f" as force option to stop applications.
5. Shut down the Oracle Clusterware or CRS: In this command all CRS related process will be stopped. This is the only command which needs to be executed by "root" user on all database nodes.
[root@node1 bin]# crsctl check cluster -all ************************************************************** node1: CRS-4537: Cluster Ready Services is online CRS-4529: Cluster Synchronization Services is online CRS-4533: Event Manager is online ************************************************************* node2: CRS-4537: Cluster Ready Services is online CRS-4529: Cluster Synchronization Services is online CRS-4533: Event Manager is online ************************************************************** [root@node1 bin]# crsctl stop crs CRS-2791: Starting shutdown of Oracle High Availability Services-managed resources on 'node1' CRS-2673: Attempting to stop 'ora.crsd' on 'node1' CRS-2790: Starting shutdown of Cluster Ready Services-managed resources on 'node1' CRS-2673: Attempting to stop 'ora.LISTENER_SCAN2.lsnr' on 'node1' CRS-2673: Attempting to stop 'ora.LISTENER.lsnr' on 'node1' CRS-2673: Attempting to stop 'ora.LISTENER_SCAN3.lsnr' on 'node1' CRS-2673: Attempting to stop 'ora.node2.vip' on 'node1' ------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- CRS-2677: Stop of 'ora.cssd' on 'node1' succeeded CRS-2673: Attempting to stop 'ora.gipcd' on 'node1' CRS-2677: Stop of 'ora.gipcd' on 'node1' succeeded CRS-2673: Attempting to stop 'ora.gpnpd' on 'node1' CRS-2677: Stop of 'ora.gpnpd' on 'node1' succeeded CRS-2793: Shutdown of Oracle High Availability Services-managed resources on 'node1' has completed CRS-4133: Oracle High Availability Services has been stopped. [root@node1 bin]# crsctl check cluster -all CRS-4639: Could not contact Oracle High Availability Services CRS-4000: Command Check failed, or completed with errors.
DBA can see Now RAC is completely down. Now you can move ahead with your patching, maintenance activity. Next let's see how to start Oracle RAC cluster database.
How to Start Oracle Real Application Clusters Database ?
In Starting Real Application Clusters Database, We will also follow a set of sequence. The order will be just opposite to Shutting down the Real Application Clusters Database.
1. Start Oracle Clusterware or CRS.
2. Start Node applications running on nodes.
3. Start All ASM instances from all nodes.
4. Start RAC Database Instances on all nodes.
5. Start Oracle Home process accessing database.
1. Start Oracle Clusterware or CRS: CRS starts automatically when you start or restart Server, but Here DBA has manually shutdown the CRS So, he has to start it manually. This is the only command which needs to be executed by "root" user. Database Administrator should execute this command on all nodes.
[root@node1 bin]# crsctl start crs CRS-4123: Oracle High Availability Services has been started [root@node2 bin]# crsctl check cluster -all ************************************************************** node1: CRS-4535: Cannot communicate with Cluster Ready Services CRS-4529: Cluster Synchronization Services is online CRS-4533: Event Manager is online ************************************************************** node2: CRS-4537: Cluster Ready Services is online CRS-4529: Cluster Synchronization Services is online CRS-4533: Event Manager is online **************************************************************
Here, DBA can see "CRS-4639: Could not contact Oracle High Availability Services" or "CRS-4535: Cannot communicate with Cluster Ready Services" messages. Wait 5 minutes and then again check with "crsctl check cluster -all" command. This time Database administrator will get "CRS-4537: Cluster Ready Services is online". If still same issue DBA can start ora.crsd process to resolve this issue. Below is the command
[root@node1 bin]# crsctl start res ora.crsd -init [root@node1 bin]# crsctl check cluster -all ************************************************************** node1: CRS-4537: Cluster Ready Services is online CRS-4529: Cluster Synchronization Services is online CRS-4533: Event Manager is online ************************************************************** node2: CRS-4537: Cluster Ready Services is online CRS-4529: Cluster Synchronization Services is online CRS-4533: Event Manager is online **************************************************************
Now, Cluster is up and running. DBA can also use "ps -ef | grep d.bin" to check cluster status.
2. Start Node applications running on nodes: To start node applications running on a node, enter the following command, where node is the name of the node where the applications are running
[grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl start nodeapps -n node1 [grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl status nodeapps -n node1 VIP node1-vip is enabled VIP node1-vip is running on node: node1 Network is enabled Network is running on node: node1 GSD is disabled GSD is not running on node: node1 ONS is enabled ONS daemon is running on node: node1
DBA has to execute this command for each node to start Real Application Clusters Cluster database.
3. Start All ASM instances from all nodes: Next DBA has to start all ASM instances which are used to access database, enter the following command, where node is the name of the node where the ASM instance has to start.
[grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl start asm -n node1 [grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl status asm -n node1 ASM is running on node1
DBA has to start ASM instance on all database nodes.
4. Start RAC Database Instances on all nodes: Now, We will start database instances on database nodes to access data.
[grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl start database -d oradb [grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl status database -d oradb Instance oradb1 is running on node node1 Instance oradb2 is running on node node2
Now database is up and running on both DB nodes.
5. Start Oracle Home process accessing database: let's start listener and OEM to access database and allow users to connect to the database.
[grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl start listener -n node1 [grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl status listener -n node1 Listener LISTENER is enabled on node(s): node1 Listener LISTENER is running on node(s): node1 [oracle@database ~]$ emctl start dbconsole Oracle Enterprise Manager 11g Database Control Release 11.2.0.2.0 Copyright (c) 1996, 2010 Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved. https://database.example.com:5500/em/console/aboutApplication Starting Oracle Enterprise Manager 11g Database Control .......................... . started. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Logs are generated in directory /etc/oracle/oracle/database.example.com_orcl/sysman/log
Now Database is ready to user. Since, shutting down and starting up RAC database is a series of steps. SO, I tried to make a one place repository for Shutdown and Start Oracle Real Application Clusters Database. If you wants to Shutdown or Restart Oracle RAC database Server.
