Sample configuration file for removing a node from the cluster
You may use this sample file as reference information to understand the configuration changes involved when you remove a node from a cluster.
The existing sample configuration before removing the node sys5 is as follows:
The existing cluster
clus1
comprises three nodessys1
,sys2
, andsys5
and hosts a single database.The Oracle database is stored on CFS.
The database is managed by the VCS agent for Oracle.
The agent starts, stops, and monitors the database.
Only one private IP address is configured for Oracle Clusterware. The private IP address is managed by the PrivNIC agent for high availability.
The Oracle Cluster Registry (OCR) and voting disk are stored on CFS.
Note:
The following sample file shows in bold the configuration information that is removed when the node "sys5" is removed from the cluster.
include "types.cf" include "CFSTypes.cf" include "CVMTypes.cf" include "OracleTypes.cf" include "PrivNIC.cf"
cluster clus1 ( UserNames = { admin = bopHo } Administrators = { admin } UseFence = SCSI3 )
system sys1 ( ) system sys2 ( ) system sys5 ( )
Note:
In the following group oradb1_grp, the sys5 node must be removed.
group oradb1_grp ( SystemList = { sys1 = 0, sys2 = 1, sys5 = 2 } AutoFailOver = 0 Parallel = 1 AutoStartList = { sys1, sys2, sys5 } )
Note:
In the following Oracle resource, the sys5 node information must be removed.
Oracle ora1 ( Critical = 0 Sid @sys1 = vrts1 Sid @sys2 = vrts2 Sid @sys5 = vrts3 Owner = oracle Home = "/app/oracle/orahome" StartUpOpt = "SRVCTLSTART" ShutDownOpt = "SRVCTLSTOP" )

Note:
In the following CVM and CVMCluster resources, the sys5 node information must be removed.

Note:
In the following PrivNIC resource, the sys5 node information must be removed.
PrivNIC ora_priv ( Critical = 0 Device@sys1 = { net1 = 0, net2 = 1} Device@sys2 = { net1 = 0, net2 = 1} Device@sys5 = { net1 = 0, net2 = 1} Address@sys1 = "192.168.12.1" Address@sys2 = "192.168.12.2" Address@sys5 = "192.168.12.5" NetMask = "255.255.255.0" )
