Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server Overview

The Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server can be used to provide high availability for either the Oracle 9iAS Infrastructure or Oracle 10g AS Infrastructure.

Oracle 9iAS (version 9.0.2 and 9.0.3) and Oracle 10g AS (version 9.0.4) introduced a new component called “Oracle Infrastructure”. This infrastructure component provides centralized product metadata, security and management services, configuration information, and data repositories for middle tier installations.

The Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server data service provides high availability for either the Oracle 9iAS Infrastructure or the Oracle 10g AS Infrastructure components. Additionally the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle is also required to provide high availability for the Oracle Database.

Table 1–2 Oracle Application Server Architecture


Middle Tier	Infrastructure Tier	Database Tier
Oracle HTTP Server (OHS)	Oracle HTTP Server (OHS)	Metadata Repository
J2EE Server (OC4J)	J2EE Server (OC4J)
	LDAP Server (OID)
	Enterprise Manager (EM)

The middle tier may be installed on multiple nodes to achieve high availability, however the infrastructure tier and database tier are installed onto one node and require more than one Sun Cluster Data Service to manage the infrastructure (requires the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server data service) and database tier (requires the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle data service).

Note –

The middle tier components listed in Table 1–2 only refer to those components installed through an Oracle Application Server installation. There are other Oracle Applications that qualify as middle tier compoenents, however these are not listed here.

Table 1–3 lists the Oracle 9iAS Infrastructure services and how they are managed by the Oracle components, which are then managed by the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server.

Planning the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server Installation and Configuration

This section contains the information you need to plan your Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server installation and configuration.

Configuration Restrictions

This section provides a list of software and hardware configuration restrictions that apply to Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server only.

Caution –

Your data service configuration might not be supported if you do not observe these restrictions.

For restrictions that apply to all data services, see the Sun Cluster Release Notes.

Installing Oracle Application Server onto Cluster File Systems — The Oracle Application Server can be installed onto a Global File System or Failover File System.

Note –
It is considered best practice when mounting Global File Systems to mount them with the /global prefix and to mount Failover File Systems with the /local prefix.

Configuration Requirements

The requirements in this section apply to the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server only.

These requirements are setup in configuration and registration files within /opt/SUNWsc9ias/util. These files allow you to register the Oracle Application Server components with Sun Cluster, with appropriate dependencies applied.

You must use these files to register the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server resources.

Files within /opt/SUNWsc9ias/util that are prefixed 9ias should be used for the Oracle 9iAS Infrastructure components and files prefixed 10gas should be used for the Oracle 10g AS Infrastructure components.

Caution –

Your data service configuration might not be supported if you do not adhere to these requirements.

Oracle Application Server components and their dependencies –

Installing and Configuring Oracle Application Server

This section contains the procedures you need to install and configure Oracle Application Server.

How to Install and Configure Oracle Application Server

Caution –

Oracle 9iAS (version 9.0.2 and 9.0.3) and Oracle 10g AS (version 9.0.4) does not support installation on a hardware cluster. So for the duration of the install and post install configuration, Sun Cluster must be stopped. You should have access to the console before the next step.Your data service configuration might not be supported if you do not adhere to these requirements.

Note –

This sections assumes you have setup a Cluster File System to support either the Oracle 9iAS Infrastructure or Oracle 10g AS Infrastructure installation.

Edit /etc/vfstab to temporarily remove the global mount option

As the Infrastructure mount point will be mounted while the node is in non-cluster mode you must edit /etc/vfstab to temporarily remove the global mount option, if the Infrastructure mount point is a Global File System.

It is recommended that you repeat the line and comment out the original entry and amend the copied entry to omit the global option.

Stop the Cluster
# scshutdown -g0 -y

Boot each Cluster Node in Non-Cluster Mode
ok boot -x

Take ownership of the Infrastructure File System diskset/diskgroup

For Solaris Volume Manager

#  metaset -s <diskset> -f -C take 
#  mount  <Infrastructure mount point>

For Veritas Volume Manager

#  vxdg -C import <diskgroup> 
#  vxdg -g <diskgroup> startall
#  mount  <Infrastructure mount point>

Plumb the Infrastructure logical IP address

#  ifconfig <interface> addif <logical host> up

Install the Oracle 9iAS Infrastructure

Note –

Refer to Step 7 if you are installing the Oracle 10g AS Infrastructure

For this section, follow the Oracle Application Server, Installation Guide manual to install Oracle Application Server .

Enable and test the interposed logical host

This step requires that the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server data service has been installed on all nodes that will be part of the Sun Cluster.

If you did not install the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server package during your initial Sun Cluster installation, proceed to Installing the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server Packages before you continue with this step.

Note –

Oracle 9iAS Infrastructure requires that the logical host is interposed for any gethostname() calls. You must carry out this step on all nodes that will be part of the Sun Cluster. The logical hostname being set in LHOSTNAME is the short name not the fully qualified name.

# cd /opt/SUNWsc9ias/lib
# cp libloghost_32.so.1 /usr/lib/libloghost_32.so.1 
# cp libloghost_64.so.1 /usr/lib/sparcv9/libloghost_64.so.1
#
# cd /usr/lib/secure
# ln -s /usr/lib/libloghost_32.so.1 libloghost_32.so.1
#
# cd /usr/lib/secure/sparcv9
# ln -s /usr/lib/sparcv9/libloghost_64.so.1  libloghost_64.so.1  
#
# su - <Oracle Application Server Userid> 
$ LD_PRELOAD_32=libloghost_32.so.1
$ LHOSTNAME=<logical hostname>
$ export LHOSTNAME  LD_PRELOAD_32
$
$ uname -n
<logical host>     <- The logical host should be returned

Setting ORACLE_HOME during the install

When prompted for the ORACLE_HOME variable during the install, point to a directory on the Infrastructure File System you mounted in Step 4.

The hostname picked up by runInstaller will be the logical hostname you plumbed in Step 5

Pre-task before running the configuration assistants

After installing the software, the Oracle 9iAS installer runs the configuration assistants for the various Oracle 9iAS Infrastructure components. Prior to starting the configuration assistants, the installer will prompt to execute a script — root.sh. Before running the root.sh script, the following needs to be done in another window. This is because OHS uses configuration information defined in apachectl and does not inherit the variable values LD_PRELOAD_32 and LHOSTNAME.

Add the following three lines to the CONFIGURATION section in apachectl (you can add these three lines just before the PIDFILE= setting in the file).

$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/bin 
$
$ vi apachectl

and add the following three lines to the CONFIGURATION section in apachectl 
(you can add these three lines just before the PIDFILE= setting)

LD_PRELOAD_32=libloghost_32.so.1
LHOSTNAME=<logical hostname>
export LHOSTNAME LD_PRELOAD_32

Install Patches

Note –
It is important that you follow the patch installations very carefully within the patch README files. Failure to do so will mean that certain functions within the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server will not work correctly.

Issues have been traced back to patches not being installed correctly. Oracle 9iAS version 9.0.2 requires that it is patched correctly before being used within Sun Cluster, including any post patch installation steps. Time spent here will be worthwhile in the end.

Tip –
When installing patches it is worthwhile checking $ORACLE_HOME/opmn/conf/opmn.xml to see if any more sections have been added by the patch. You should perform this check only if you are requested to run a root.sh script.

If you are requested to run a root.sh script, then before you hit OK for that script, you should check $ORACLE_HOME/opmn/conf/opmn.xml. If any new sections have been added please include LD_LIBRARY_PATH, LD_PRELOAD_32, LHOSTNAME and DISPLAY as listed within the next step, before hitting enter to the OK message.

Check the latest release notes for any post install patches.

Edit opmn.xml

Stop opmn by issuing the following command

$ $ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl stopall

Edit the $ORACLE_HOME/opmn/conf/opmn.xml file and add entries for the LD_PRELOAD_32 and LHOSTNAME environment variables in the environment section for OC4J_DAS, home, OC4J_Demos, CUSTOM, etc. For example

Note –

In the example below, the LD_LIBRARY_PATH value should be replaced by your $ORACLE_HOME/lib, the DISPLAY value replaced with your logical hostname and the LHOSTNAME replaced by the fully qualified logical hostname.

Restart OPMN

$  $ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl startall

Update the OPMN configuration

$  $ORACLE_HOME/dcm/bin/dcmctl updateConfig -ct opmn

Stop all the Infrastructure processes

After the install, all the Infrastructure processes will be started. These need to be stopped so that they can be started under the control of Sun Cluster.

Install the Oracle 10g AS Infrastructure

Note –
Refer to Step 6 if you are installing the Oracle 9iAS Infrastructure

For this section, follow the Oracle Application Server, Installation Guide manual to install Oracle Application Server.
1. Setting ORACLE_HOME during the install
  
  When prompted for the ORACLE_HOME during the install, point to a directory on the Infrastructure File System you mounted in Step 4.
2. Install Patches
  
  Check the latest release notes for any post install patches.
3. Stop all the Infrastructure processes
  
  After the install, all the Infrastructure processes will be started. These need to be stopped so that they can be started under the control of Sun Cluster.

Prepare the other Cluster Nodes

Since the ORACLE_HOME is on shared storage, there is no need to install the software again on the other nodes within the cluster. Once the Oracle 9iAS or Oracle 10g AS Infrastructure file system is under the control of Sun Cluster, either as a Global File System or Failover File System, the Infrastructure files can be made available to other nodes within Sun Cluster.

It is however necessary to update the oratab and emtab files in /var/opt/oracle on the other nodes within the cluster. If there are no other Oracle database instances on the other nodes, simply copy the two files from the first node to the second node etc. If there are other Oracle database instances, then add the iasdb entries from the oratab and emtab files on node 1 to the same files on node 2 etc. Create the files on node 2 if necessary.

Preparation if installing the Middle Tier on the same nodes as the Infrastructure.

Unlike the Oracle 9iAS or Oracle 10g AS Infrastructure, the middle tier may be installed on multiple active nodes to achieve high availability. Typically the middle tier and infrastructure are installed on separate nodes. However, you may wish to install the middle tier on the node(s) where the clustered infrastructure has been installed. This can be done by installing the middle tier on local disks of the nodes that could host the infrastructure.

However, whenever the middle tier and infrastructure share a cluster node, two "/var/opt/oracle" areas must be maintained. One for the infrastructure where the "oraInst.loc" points to the "oraInventory" directory on the shared disk and another for the middle tier instance installed on local disk on each cluster node where it's "oraInst.loc" points to another "oraInventory" directory on local disk of that node. These directories are needed for applying patches and performing other upgrades or maintenance tasks and therefore must be saved.

Note –
When applying patches or upgrades on the infrastructure or middle tiers, the corresponding original copy of "/var/opt/oracle" must be reinstated and made available before the Oracle installer is invoked.

Save /var/opt/oracle on each cluster node where the middle tier and infrastructure are installed together.
# cp -rp /var/opt/oracle /var/opt/oracle_infra
Note –
You will need to supply the directory for the Oracle 9iAS Infrastructure "/var/opt/oracle" location when you register the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server data service later on. In this case we have copied this to /var/opt/oracle_infra.

Stop the Oracle Application Server Infrastructure

For Oracle 9iAS Infrastructure

#  su -  <Oracle Application Server Userid>
$ <Oracle Home>/bin/emctl stop
$ <Oracle Home>/opmn/bin/opmnctl stopall
$ <Oracle Home>/bin/oidctl server=oidldapd configset=0 instance=1 stop
$ <Oracle Home>/bin/oidmon stop

For Oracle 10g AS Infrastructure

#  su -  <Oracle Application Server Userid>
$ <Oracle Home>/bin/emctl stop iasconsole
$ <Oracle Home>/opmn/bin/opmnctl stopall

Stop the Oracle Database and Listener

#  su -  <Oracle Database  Userid>
$ <Oracle Home>/bin/lsnrctl  stop
$ <Oracle Home>/bin/sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
$ shutdown normal
$ quit

Edit /etc/vfstab to reinstate the global mount option

If the Infrastructure mount point is a Global File System and you temporarily removed the global option in Step 1 you must now reinstate the global mount option.

You must edit /etc/vfstab to reinstate the global mount option. If you commented out the original entry just remove just that comment and comment out the copied entry you made in Step 1.

Boot each Node in Cluster Mode
# reboot

Verifying the Installation and Configuration of Oracle Application Server

This section contains the procedure you need to verify the installation and configuration.

How to Verify the Installation and Configuration of Oracle Application Server

This procedure does not verify that your application is highly available because you have not yet installed your data service.

Before verifying the Installation and Configuration of Oracle Application Server, ensure that the installation has been completed by following the steps inInstalling and Configuring Oracle Application Server.

Start theOracle Database and Listener

#  su -  <Oracle Database  Userid>
$ <Oracle Home>/bin/lsnrctl  start
$ <Oracle Home>/bin/sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
$ startup
$ quit

Start the Oracle Application Server Infrastructure

For Oracle 9iAS Infrastructure

#  su -  <Oracle Application Server Userid>

Installing the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server Packages

If you did not install the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server packages during your initial Sun Cluster installation, perform this procedure to install the packages. Perform this procedure on each cluster node where you are installing the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server packages. To complete this procedure, you need the Sun Java Enterprise System Accessory CD Volume 3.

If you are installing more than one data service simultaneously, perform the procedure in “Installing the Software” in Sun Cluster 3.1 Software Installation Guide.

Install the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server packages by using one of the following installation tools:

The Web Start program
The scinstall utility

Note –

The Web Start program is not available in releases earlier than Sun Cluster 3.1 Data Services 10/03.

How to Install the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server Packages Using the Web Start Program

You can run the Web Start program with a command-line interface (CLI) or with a graphical user interface (GUI). The content and sequence of instructions in the CLI and the GUI are similar. For more information about the Web Start program, see the installer(1M) man page.

Become superuser of the cluster node where you are installing the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server packages.

(Optional) If you intend to run the Web Start program with a GUI, ensure that your DISPLAY environment variable is set.

Load the Sun Java Enterprise System Accessory CD Volume 3 into the CD-ROM drive.

If the Volume Management daemon vold(1M) is running and configured to manage CD-ROM devices, it automatically mounts the CD-ROM on the /cdrom/cdrom0 directory.

Change to the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server component directory of the CD-ROM.

The Web Start program for the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server data service resides in this directory.
# cd /cdrom/cdrom0/components/SunCluster_HA_ORACLE9I_AS_3.1

Start the Web Start program.
# ./installer

When you are prompted, select the type of installation.
- To install only the C locale, select Typical.
- To install other locales, select Custom.

Follow instructions on the screen to install the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server packages on the node.

After the installation is finished, the Web Start program provides an installation summary. This summary enables you to view logs that the Web Start program created during the installation. These logs are located in the /var/sadm/install/logs directory.

Exit the Web Start program.

Unload the Sun Java Enterprise System Accessory CD Volume 3 from the CD-ROM drive.
1. To ensure that the CD-ROM is not being used, change to a directory that does not reside on the CD-ROM.
2. Eject the CD-ROM.
  # eject cdrom

How to Install the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server Packages Using the `scinstall` Utility

You need the Sun Cluster Agents CD-ROM to perform this procedure. This procedure assumes that you did not install the data services packages during your initial Sun Cluster installation.

If you installed the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server packages as part of your initial Sun Cluster installation, proceed to Registering and Configuring Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server.

Perform this procedure on all nodes that can run Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server data service.

Load the Sun Cluster Agents CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.

Run the scinstall utility with no options.

This step starts the scinstall utility in interactive mode.

Choose the menu option, Add Support for New Data Service to This Cluster Node.

The scinstall utility prompts you for additional information.

Provide the path to the Sun Cluster Agents CD-ROM.

The utility refers to the CD as the “data services cd.”

Specify the data service to install.

The scinstall utility lists the data service that you selected and asks you to confirm your choice.

Exit the scinstall utility.

Unload the CD from the drive.

Registering and Configuring Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server

This section contains the procedures you need to configure Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server.

How to Register and Configure Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server as a Failover Service

This procedure assumes that you installed the data service packages during your initial Sun Cluster installation.

If you did not install the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server packages as part of your initial Sun Cluster installation, go to How to Install the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server Packages Using the scinstall Utility.

Become superuser on one of the nodes in the cluster that will host Oracle Application Server.

Verifying the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server Installation and Configuration

This section contains the procedure you need to verify that you installed and configured your data service correctly.

How to Verify the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server Installation and Configuration

Become superuser on one of the nodes in the cluster that will host Oracle Application Server.

Ensure all the Oracle Application Server resources are online with scstat.
# scstat
For each Oracle Application Server resource that is not online, use the scswitch command as follows.
# scswitch -e -j Oracle Application Server- resource

Run the scswitch command to switch the Oracle Application Server resource group to another cluster node, such as node2.
# scswitch -z -g Oracle Application Server-failover-resource-group -h node2

Understanding the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server Fault Monitor

This section describes the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server fault monitor's probing algorithm or functionality.

For conceptual information on fault monitors, see the Sun Cluster Concepts Guide.

Resource Properties

The Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server fault monitor uses the same resource properties as resource type SUNW.gds. Refer to the SUNW.gds(5) man page for a complete list of resource properties used.

Probing Algorithm and Functionality

Oracle Internet Directory Monitor (OIDMON)

Note –
This test is only performed for the Oracle 9iAS Infrastructure.
- Sleeps for Thorough_probe_interval
- Test whether the OIDMON process is running. If this fails, then the probe will restart the OIDMON resource.
- If the OIDMON resource is repeatedly restarted and subsequently exhausts the Retry_count within the Retry_interval then a failover is initiated for the Resource Group onto another node.

Oracle Internet Directory Process (OIDLDAP)

Note –
This test is only performed for the Oracle 9iAS Infrastructure.
- Sleeps for Thorough_probe_interval
- Test whether the directory service is available by running $ORACLE_HOME/bin/ldapsearch. If this fails, then the probe will issue a half failure as usually the Oracle Internet Directory Monitor (OIDMON) process will restart the Oracle Internet Directory Process (OIDLDAP). If at the next probe cycle the test fails again then another half failure is issued. If two half failures are issued by successive probes, then the probe will restart the OIDLDAP resource.
- If the OIDLDAP resource is repeatedly restarted and subsequently exhausts the Retry_count within the Retry_interval then a failover is initiated for the Resource Group onto another node. However, in reality because the OIDLDAP probe reports a half failure every time the test fails and that usually the OIDMON process is responsible for restarting the OIDLDAP process, it is very unlikely that a failover will be initiated.

Oracle Process Management and Notification (OPMN)
- Sleeps for Thorough_probe_interval
- Test whether the OPMN process is running. If this fails, then the probe will restart the OPMN resource.
- For Oracle 9iAS, test whether each managed OPMN component reported by $ORACLE_HOME/dcm/bin/dcmctl getstate -v is Up. If this fails, then the probe will try to (re)start the OPMN component. However, in reality the OPMN process is responsible for restarting these components. If the OPMN probe tries to (re)start the OPMN component and the OPMN process has already tried to start the OPMN component then the duplicate (re)start will simply be ignored.
- For Oracle 10g AS, test whether OPMN is working by $ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl status. If this fails, then the probe will report an error and request a restart.
- If the OPMN resource is repeatedly restarted and subsequently exhausts the Retry_count within the Retry_interval then a failover is initiated for the Resource Group onto another node.

Enterprise Manager (EM)
- Sleeps for Thorough_probe_interval
- Test whether the EM process is running. If this fails, then the probe will restart the EM resource.
- Test whether the EM status is EMD is up and running. If this fails, then the probe will restart the EM resource.
- If the EM resource is repeatedly restarted and subsequently exhausts the Retry_count within the Retry_interval then a failover is initiated for the Resource Group onto another node.

Debug Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server

Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server can be used by multiple Oracle Application Server instances. However, it is possible to turn on debug for all Oracle Application Server instances or a particular Oracle Application Server instance.

Each Oracle Application Server component has a DEBUG file in /opt/SUNWsc9ias/etc.

This files allows you to turn on debug for all Oracle Application Server resources or for a specific Oracle Application Server resource on a particular node with Sun Cluster. If you require debug to be turned on for Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server across the whole Sun Cluster, repeat this step on all nodes within Sun Cluster.

How to turn on debug for Sun Cluster HA for Oracle Application Server

Edit /etc/syslog.conf and change daemon.notice to daemon.debug.

# grep daemon /etc/syslog.conf
*.err;kern.debug;daemon.notice;mail.crit        /var/adm/messages
*.alert;kern.err;daemon.err                     operator
#

Change the daemon.notice to daemon.debug and restart syslogd. The output below, from the command grep daemon /etc/syslog.conf, shows that daemon.debug has now been set.

# grep daemon /etc/syslog.conf
*.err;kern.debug;daemon.debug;mail.crit        /var/adm/messages
*.alert;kern.err;daemon.err                    operator
#
# pkill -1 syslogd
#

Edit /opt/SUNWsc9ias/etc/config

Edit /opt/SUNWsc9ias/etc/config and change DEBUG= to DEBUG=ALL or DEBUG=resource

# cat /opt/SUNWsc9ias/etc/config
#
# Copyright 2003 Sun Microsystems, Inc.  All rights reserved.
# Use is subject to license terms.
#
# Usage:
#       DEBUG=<RESOURCE_NAME> or ALL
#
DEBUG=ALL
#

Note –

To turn off debug, reverse the steps above.
