Checking Oracle RAC Network and IPs information

Checking Oracle RAC Network and IPs information

1. Display the current scan configuration

$ srvctl config scan
SCAN name: exadata-pscan1, Network: 1
Subnet IPv4: 192.168.16.0/255.255.255.0/bondeth0, static
Subnet IPv6:
SCAN 0 IPv4 VIP: 192.168.16.43
SCAN VIP is enabled.
SCAN VIP is individually enabled on nodes:
SCAN VIP is individually disabled on nodes:
SCAN 1 IPv4 VIP: 192.168.16.41
SCAN VIP is enabled.
SCAN VIP is individually enabled on nodes:
SCAN VIP is individually disabled on nodes:
SCAN 2 IPv4 VIP: 192.168.16.42
SCAN VIP is enabled.
SCAN VIP is individually enabled on nodes:
SCAN VIP is individually disabled on nodes:

2. Obtain information about SCAN DNS records.

$ nslookup exadata-pscan1
Server: 192.168.16.20
Address: 192.168.16.20#53

Name: exadata-pscan1
Address: 192.168.16.41
Name: exadata-pscan1
Address: 192.168.16.42
Name: exadata-pscan1
Address: 192.168.16.43

Where: 192.168.16.41, 192.168.16.42 e 192.168.16.43 are the SCAN IPs

3. Display Cluster Name

$./olsnodes -c
exadata-pclu1

4) Display the PUBLIC and VIP Node name.

$ cd /u01/app/12.1.0.2/grid/bin/
$ ./olsnodes -n -i
exadatadm01vm011exadata01vm01-vip
exadatadm02vm012exadata02vm01-vip

$./srvctl config nodeapps -a
Network 1 exists
Subnet IPv4: 192.168.16.0/255.255.255.0/bondeth0, static
Subnet IPv6:
Ping Targets:
Network is enabled
Network is individually enabled on nodes:
Network is individually disabled on nodes:
VIP exists: network number 1, hosting node exadatadm01vm01
VIP Name: exadata01vm01-vip
VIP IPv4 Address: 192.168.16.46
VIP IPv6 Address:
VIP is enabled.
VIP is individually enabled on nodes:
VIP is individually disabled on nodes:
VIP exists: network number 1, hosting node exadatadm02vm01
VIP Name: exadata02vm01-vip
VIP IPv4 Address: 192.168.16.47
VIP IPv6 Address:
VIP is enabled.
VIP is individually enabled on nodes:
VIP is individually disabled on nodes:

5) Display Private IP information

$./olsnodes -n -i -l -p
exadatadm01vm011172.16.2.63exadata01vm01-vip

Public and private network information are stored in Oracle Cluster Registry (OCR).

$./oifcfg getif
bondeth0 192.168.16.0 global public
ib0 172.16.0.0 global cluster_interconnect

“cluster_interconnect” — Private Interface in Oracle Clusterware

The iflist command queries the operating system to find which network interfaces are present on this node.
The command iflist shows the available interfaces that you can configure with “setif”.

-p parameter displays the type of interface which can be PRIVATE, PUBLIC or UNKNOWN
-n include the subnet mask

$ ./oifcfg iflist -p -n
eth0 192.168.1.0 PRIVATE 255.255.255.0
bondeth0 192.168.16.0 PRIVATE 255.255.255.0
bondeth1 10.70.156.0 PRIVATE 255.255.255.0
ib0 172.16.0.0 PRIVATE 255.255.252.0
ib0 169.254.0.0 UNKNOWN 255.255.0.0
ib1 172.16.0.0 PRIVATE 255.255.252.0

6) Network interface configuration

$ ifconfig |grep 192.168*
Ifconfig uses the ioctl access method to get the full address information, which limits hardware addresses to 8 bytes.
Because Infiniband address has 20 bytes, only the first 8 bytes are displayed correctly.
Ifconfig is obsolete! For replacement check ip.

Where:

192.168.16.44 – Data IP address
192.168.16.46 – Virtual IP (VIP) address
192.168.16.41 – SCAN IP address
192.168.16.42 – SCAN IP address
192.168.1.82 – Management IP address
