1. creation oracle user:

bash-3.00# groupadd -g 500 dba
bash-3.00# groupadd -g 501 oinstall
bash-3.00# groupadd -g 502 oper
bash-3.00# useradd -u 500 -d /export/home/oracle -g oinstall -G dba,oper
oracle
bash-3.00# mkdir /export/home/oracle
bash-3.00# chown -R oracle:oinstall /export/home/oracle/
bash-3.00# passwd oracle
New Password:
Re-enter new Password:
passwd: password successfully changed for oracle
2. setting up network configurations
ON NODE-1
bash-3.00# ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=2001000849 mtu 8232 index 1
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
ce0: flags=1000843 mtu 1500 index 2
inet 172.31.6.67 netmask fffffff0 broadcast 172.31.6.79
groupname ipmp0

ce1: flags=1008843 mtu 1500 index 5
inet 172.16.0.129 netmask ffffff80 broadcast 172.16.0.255

ether 0:0:0:0:0:1
Note: all of the front end IPs must be in the same network, so in our case, the
node-1 has two IPs that is,
ce0: 172.31.6.67 > physical ethernet card
ce0:1 172.31.6.68 > logical ethernet card (going to be used for VIP)
ON NODE- 2

3. extraction of oracle clusterware & RDBMS installation binaries

#gunzip 10gr2_cluster_sol.cpio.gz
#cpio -idcvm < style=font-weight: bold;>
4. setting up the oracle user profile:
NODE 1
vi /export/home/oracle/.profile
paste the following text inside .profile on node -1 stty erase ^H
set -o vi
export ORACLE_BASE=/opt/app/oracle
export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/10.2.0
export ORACLE_SID=utrafedb1
export ORACLE_TERM=xterm
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib
export PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
SYSTEM_Name=`uname -n`
export SYSTEM_Name
export PS1=$SYSTEM_Name:$ORACLE_SID:$PWD/$
alias ll=ls -al
alias sss=sqlplus /as sysdba
NODE 2 vi /export/home/oracle/.profile
paste the following text inside .profile on node -2 stty erase ^H
set -o vi
export ORACLE_BASE=/opt/app/oracle
export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/10.2.0
export ORACLE_SID=utrafedb2
export ORACLE_TERM=xterm
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib
export PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
SYSTEM_Name=`uname -n`
export SYSTEM_Name
export PS1=$SYSTEM_Name:$ORACLE_SID:$PWD/$
alias ll=ls -al
alias sss=sqlplus /as sysdba
5. creating sub-directories for oracle installation
bash-3.00# mkdir /opt/app

bash-3.00# mkdir /opt/app/oracle

bash-3.00# chown -R oracle:oinstall /opt/app/oracle/
bash-3.00# chmod 755 /opt/app/oracle/
6. configure rsh i.e. passowrdless remote loging for both nodes.
login as oracle user, and give following commands
$echo + oracle > /export/home/oracle/.rhosts
note: have to edit sshd_config to all .rhosts based remote login.while have to
allow oracle user for ssh in /etc/profile.
to test from node-1
$ rsh node-2
7. prechecking the clusterware installation.
excute following command as oracle user
bash-3.00$ sh runcluvfy.sh stage -pre crsinst -n node-1,node2
8. Installing the UDLM package on both nodesas root
#cd /export/home/nahmad/oracle-bin/crs/racpatch
#cp ORAUDLM.tar.Z /tmp
#cd /tmp
#uncompress ORAUDLM.tar.Z
#tar xvf ORAUDLM.tar
#pkgadd -d . ORAUDLM
#reboot
9. Installing Oracle ClusterwareLogin as Oracle user on server.
$cd /export/home/nahmad/oracle-bin/crs
$./runinstaller
10. create directory for Oracle clusterware binaries
$mkdir /opt/app
$chown -R /opt/app/
11. giving the input in installer.
- on first screen:
path of inventory dir: /opt/app/oracle/oraInventory
group: oinstall
- on second screen:
crs home name: OraCrs10g_utrafe
path: /opt/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/crs
- on fourth screen:
Before this you need to run following commands on BOTH NODES i.e #ifconfig ce0:1 down
cluster_name: crs

cluster nodes:
node-1 clusternode1-priv node-1-vip
node-2 clusternode2-priv node-2-vip
- on fifth screen
ce0 Public
ce1 DO NOT USE
ce2 DO NOT USE
ce5 Private
clprivnet0 Private
-on sixth screen

12. running VIPCA: at the end of CRS installation, VIP configuration will
fail and will give some error on running the root.sh script, ignore it and
later run VIPCA.
$cd /opt/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/crs/bin
$./vipca
give the VIP IPs in the wizard to configure VIP, on the completion run following

command to check the status.

$./crs_stat -t -v
