Shreeni, Salem, folks Finally Connect thru Listener was successful thanks to the great support from you folks. Thanks indeed. ACTIONS:- Added the service thru "NETCA" Tool Another mistake - Both the initPNBRAC1.ora & PNBRAC2.ora has by Oversight the parameter value instance_name = PNBRAC. Deleted the same Cheers Vivek ________________________________ From: VIVEK_SHARMA Sent: Friday, December 22, 2006 4:50 AM Following Command gave Error because I had just successfully issued the Command "srvctl add database -d PNBRAC -o /ora/rac10gr2/ product" before receipt of your e-mail. Hope it is ok. $ srvctl add database -d PNBRAC -o /ora/rac10gr2/product -r PRIMARY -n PNBRAC PRKP-1073 : Cannot create database PNBRAC because a database named PNBRAC already exists. Following 2 Commands were also successful:- $ srvctl add instance -d PNBRAC -i PNBRAC1 -n spesuns4p-2 $ $ srvctl add instance -d PNBRAC -i PNBRAC2 -n spesuns4p-4 $ $ srvctl config database TSTRAC EBRAC PNBRAC ________________________________ From: Shreeni [mailto:shreeni@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, December 22, 2006 4:11 AM To: VIVEK_SHARMA; oracle-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: Connect Thru Listener for NEWLY Converted RAC DB Failing ......Basic Qs OK...This clears up a bit I guess. Using srvctl in this order, I guess u will be set :- ( srvctl -h gives you all possible syntax combos ) srvctl add database -d PNBRAC -o <oracle_home> -r PRIMARY -n PNBRAC srvctl add instance -d PNBRAC -i PNBRAC1 -n spesuns4p-2 srvctl add service -d PNBRAC -s PNBRAC.ad.infosys.com -P BASIC srvctl add nodeapps -n spesuns4p-2 -o <oracle_home> srvctl config database Thanks and have a good day.
