Oracle 11g R2 Clusterware installation
Presuming that the servers (referred to as nodes hereafter) are built properly and the prerequisite checks are verified thoroughly with the CLUVFY utility, it is the right time to begin the Oracle 11g R2 Clusterware installation process. However, bear in mind that for a successful installation, all prerequisite validations must be met on nodes that are going to be part of the cluster installation.
In the subsequent sections we are going to demonstrate a two-node Oracle 11g R2 Grid Infrastructure and RAC software (RDBMS) installation procedure.
The following table describes the environmental settings that have been used in this book to demonstrate Oracle 11g R2 Grid Infrastructure and RDBMS software installation and configuration:
