What is Real Application Clusters?
• Two or more interconnected, but independent servers
• One instance per node
• Multiple instances accessing the same database
• Database files stored on disks physically or logically connected to each node, so that every instance can read from or write to them

Real Applications Clusters Use RAC for scalability
– Add instances against same database files providing more Oracle processes and increasing number of users
– Add or remove nodes when needed
Oracle 10g provides platform independent Cluster Ready Services (CRS) to handle failover of services to surviving nodes

OCR And Voting Disk
Oracle Cluster Registry:The OCR maintains cluster configuration information that
is used by each node of the cluster to determine the state of the cluster. OCR also maintains information about cluster resources:
• Databases• Instance• ServicesEach node in the cluster maintains a copy of the OCR in
memory for better performance and also responsible for updating the OCR as required in shared storage.
Voting Disk: The Voting Disk Files are used by Oracle Clusterware to
determine which nodes are currently members of the cluster.

RAC Scalability & Availability
High Availability– Node & Database instance no longer
represent single point of failure– survive node and instance failures

RAC Network Checklist
• Public adapter should be first
• Private adapter should be second
• Ping node’s public hostname to verify
• Ping each node’s public & private hostname
• Don’t use the name ‘Private’ for the Private NetworkNetwork Connections

RAC Best Practices Eliminate Single Points of Failure
– NIC’s, Switches, Interconnect, Shared Storage, Power Supplies
– Understand cost vs. availability tradeoff Use fastest switch available for private
interconnect– Disable additional protocols such as spanning tree protocol– Increase MTU size as high as switch allows – I.e. 9000– Allow cards and switch ports to autonegotiate speed.
Use static IP addresses– Public LAN resolved by DNS and hosts file– For cluster interconnect use non-routable IP

Oracle Fail Safe Integrated with Microsoft Clustering, Fail Safe
is a core feature included with every Oracle version
In the event of a system failure, Oracle Fail Safe works with Microsoft Cluster Server to restart Oracle databases and applications on a surviving cluster node
MSCS and Fail Safe uses “share-nothing” architecture (only one node can access shared datafiles at any time)

Oracle Data Guard Data Guard is Oracle’s Disaster Recovery product
which maintains and monitors one or more standby databases to protect enterprise data from failures, disasters, errors, and corruptions
Standby databases, which can be located across large geographic regions away from the primary database, can be switched to the production role if a problem occurs with the primary
Can use different Windows versions for primary and standby (2003 for primary, 2000 for standby)
DG is free with Enterprise Edition of RDBMS
