Cluster Management 6-17 5. From the Fibre Host Adapter, disconnect the Fibre Channel cable installed between the Fibre Host Adapter and its Fibre Channel SAN Switch, FC-AL Switch, or Storage Hub. 6. Remove the failed Fibre Host Adapter and insert a new one. 7. From the new Fibre Host Adapter, connect the Fibre Channel cable that runs to its Fibre Channel SAN Switch, FC-AL Switch, or Storage Hub. 8. Power on the node. 9. Restart the Oracle services on the node. 10. Start up the Oracle instance on the node. Replacing a Cluster Node Before replacing a node, verify that the new configuration is supported by the PDC/O2000. To determine if your new server is supported, see the Compaq Parallel Database Cluster Model PDC/O2000 Certification Matrix for Windows 2000 at www.compaq.com/solutions/enterprise/ha-pdc.html IMPORTANT: With some possible exceptions, the servers in the cluster must be set up identically. For example, this means using one model server for all nodes. The cluster components common to all nodes in the cluster must be identical; for example, the cluster interconnect adapters, amount of memory, cache, and number of CPUs must be the same in each cluster node. Replacing a node consists of removing it logically from the cluster, removing it physically from the cluster, then adding a new server to take its place. Removing the Node 1. Record pertinent information that will be needed when configuring the replacement node. Such information includes: G The IP address and network name of the client LAN adapters G For an Ethernet cluster interconnect, the IP address and network name of the Ethernet cluster interconnect adapters 2. If the new node will use applications or data that is stored locally on the node being replaced, back up that data to a removable storage medium or to a remote file server that can be restored onto the replacement node. 3. Stop the Oracle instance on the node to be removed.

Replacing a Cluster Node
Before replacing a node, verify that the new configuration is supported by the
PDC/O2000. To determine if your new server is supported, see the
Compaq
Parallel Database Cluster Model PDC/O2000 Certification Matrix for
Windows 2000
at
www.compaq.com/solutions/enterprise/ha-pdc.html
IMPORTANT:
With some possible exceptions, the servers in the cluster must be set up
identically. For example, this means using one model server for all nodes. The cluster
components common to all nodes in the cluster must be identical; for example, the
cluster interconnect adapters, amount of memory, cache, and number of CPUs must be
the same in each cluster node.
Replacing a node consists of removing it logically from the cluster, removing
it physically from the cluster, then adding a new server to take its place.
Removing the Node
1.
Record pertinent information that will be needed when configuring the
replacement node. Such information includes:
G
The IP address and network name of the client LAN adapters
G
For an Ethernet cluster interconnect, the IP address and network
name of the Ethernet cluster interconnect adapters
2.
If the new node will use applications or data that is stored locally on the
node being replaced, back up that data to a removable storage medium
or to a remote file server that can be restored onto the replacement node.
3.
Stop the Oracle instance on the node to be removed.
