6-20 Compaq Parallel Database Cluster Model PDC/O1000 for Oracle8i and Windows 2000 Administrator Guide 7. Install the Fibre Host Adapter or Fibre Host Adapters in the replacement node in the same server PCI slot locations used in the other cluster nodes. 8. Enter unique IP addresses and node names for each node in the hosts and lmhosts files located at %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc. 9. Using Fibre Channel cables, connect each Fibre Host Adapter in the replacement node to its Fibre Channel SAN Switch, FC-AL Switch, or Storage Hub. 10. Restart the replacement node. 11. Verify TCP/IP connectivity between the replacement node and the existing cluster nodes. Run the ping utility from the replacement node, pinging the client LAN adapters on all other nodes. If Ethernet is used as the cluster interconnect, also ping the cluster interconnect adapters of all other nodes. 12. Verify that the replacement node can access the shared storage. From the replacement node, start Disk Management to verify that the same shared disk resources are seen from this node as they are seen from other installed nodes in the cluster. Installing the Cluster Software Now that the replacement node is configured and physically connected to the cluster, the next procedure is to integrate the node into the cluster. This involves installing the low-level cluster management software and the OSDs. It also involves installing the application-level cluster software, including Oracle8i Server with the Oracle8i Parallel Server Option. All activities in this procedure are facilitated with the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI). The installation is further simplified in that almost all steps are performed from a single server, the primary cluster node. To install the cluster software, perform the following steps: 1. To add a node to the cluster, you must disassemble the existing cluster and then reform it to include the replacement node. Do the following on all original cluster nodes (not the replacement node): a. Shut down the Oracle instance. b. Stop all Oracle services. c. Deinstall the OSDs using the OUI from the original installing node. d. Restart all nodes to complete the deinstallation process.

7.
Install the Fibre Host Adapter or Fibre Host Adapters in the replacement
node in the same server PCI slot locations used in the other cluster
nodes.
8.
Enter unique IP addresses and node names for each node in the hosts
and lmhosts files located at %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc.
9.
Using Fibre Channel cables, connect each Fibre Host Adapter in the
replacement node to its Fibre Channel SAN Switch, FC-AL Switch, or
Storage Hub.
10.
Restart the replacement node.
11.
Verify TCP/IP connectivity between the replacement node and the
existing cluster nodes. Run the ping utility from the replacement node,
pinging the client LAN adapters on all other nodes. If Ethernet is used
as the cluster interconnect, also ping the cluster interconnect adapters of
all other nodes.
12.
Verify that the replacement node can access the shared storage. From
the replacement node, start Disk Management to verify that the same
shared disk resources are seen from this node as they are seen from
other installed nodes in the cluster.
Installing the Cluster Software
Now that the replacement node is configured and physically connected to the
cluster, the next procedure is to integrate the node into the cluster. This
involves installing the low-level cluster management software and the OSDs.
It also involves installing the application-level cluster software, including
Oracle8
i
Server with the Oracle8
i
Parallel Server Option.
All activities in this procedure are facilitated with the Oracle Universal
Installer (OUI). The installation is further simplified in that almost all steps are
performed from a single server, the primary cluster node.
To install the cluster software, perform the following steps:
1.
To add a node to the cluster, you must disassemble the existing cluster
and then reform it to include the replacement node. Do the following on
all original cluster nodes (not the replacement node):
a.
Shut down the Oracle instance.
b.
Stop all Oracle services.
c.
Deinstall the OSDs using the OUI from the original installing node.
d.
Restart all nodes to complete the deinstallation process.
