Create an SDP Listener on the InfiniBand Network
Oracle RAC 11 g Release 2 supports client connections across multiple networks, and it
provides load balancing and failover of client connections within the network they are
connecting. To add a listener for the Oracle Exalogic Elastic Cloud Software connections
coming in on the Infiniband network, first add a network resource for the Infiniband network
with Virtual IP addresses.
Note -
This example lists two Database Domains. If you have more than two Database Domains
in your system, you must repeat Database Domain-specific lines for each Database Domain in
the cluster.
1.
Edit
/etc/hosts
on each Database Domain in the cluster to add the virtual IP
addresses you will use for the InfiniBand network. Make sure that these IP
addresses are not used. The following is an example:
# Added for Listener over IB
192.168.10.21 ssc01db01-ibvip.mycompany.com ssc01db01-ibvip
192.168.10.22 ssc01db02-ibvip.mycompany.com ssc01db02-ibvip
2. On one of the Database Domains, as the root user, create a network resource for
the InfiniBand network, as in the following example:
# /u01/app/grid/product/11.2.0.2/bin/srvctl add network -k 2 -S
192.168.10.0/255.255.255.0/bondib0
3. Validate that the network was added correctly, by running one of the following
commands:
#
/u01/app/grid/product/11.2.0.2/bin/crsctl stat res -t | grep net
ora.net1.network
ora.net2.network -- Output indicating new Network resource
or
#
/u01/app/grid/product/11.2.0.2/bin/srvctl config network -k 2
Network exists: 2/192.168.10.0/255.255.255.0/bondib0, type static -- Output indicating
Network resource on the 192.168.10.0 subnet
