This was posted today, which i believe is somewhat related to what you are 
trying to do...

I do have a non-prod environment that I could test it on before Prod. I am not 
planning on using Flex clusters as of now.
Thanks Maaz.

A few blog posts on this have already been written, but I hope you have a 
non-production environment to test it out first :)

Unless you are planning to use Flex Clusters (which it doesn't sound like you 
are or need to in this case), your upgrade should be similar from 11.2.0.X to 
11.2.0.Y.

Cheers,Maaz

I am thinking of upgrading to 12c clusterware if it is not too painful and 
reasonably stable.. Certainly this will be the option I would consider if I 
decide not to upgrade the clusterware. 
Thanks Jared!

Without impacting the above setup, I would like to create a second database in 
the RAC environment and setup access for another set of applications through 
another network Network_B. They both are independent networks (its a 
requirement based on the legacy networks we have). I need the listener for the 
second database to be listening on Network_B.  




I've done something quite similar to this in 11.2.0.x RAC.
The same databases were involved, but two different networks, internal and 
external.


That was a couple years ago, just looked up my notes and found the Oracle 
Support document:
    How to Configure A Second Listener on a Separate Network in 11.2 Grid 
Infrastructure [ID 1063571.1]





As I recall the note was a little unclear is spots, but we did get it to 
work.The method is not entirely straight forward, but is supported, and once 
setup works as expected.


I would point you to a blog if I had written one ( shame on me ), but I did 
write an internal document that I think could be easily converted to a blog.


If this note seems to cover it , feel free to ask any questions you may have 
about it.
