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.
