How to Shutdown Oracle Real Application

ClustersDatabase ?
1. Shutdown Oracle Home process accessing database.
2. Shutdown RAC Database Instances on all nodes.
3. Shutdown All ASM instances from all nodes.
4. Shutdown Node applications running on nodes.
5. Shut down the Oracle Cluster ware or CRS.

1. Shutdown Oracle Home process accessing database:

[grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl stop listener -n node1

[grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl status listener -n node1


Listener LISTENER is enabled on node(s): node1
Listener LISTENER is not running on node(s): node1

2. Shutdown RAC Database Instances on all nodes:

[oracle@node2 ~]$ srvctl status database -d RACDB


Instance RACDB1 is running on node node1
Instance RACDB2 is running on node node2
[oracle@node2 ~]$ srvctl stop database -d RACDB

[oracle@node2 ~]$ srvctl status database -d RACDB


Instance RACDB1 is not running on node node1
Instance RACDB2 is not running on node node2

***We just need to execute one command from any one of the server having
database and it will stop all database instances on all servers.

3. Shutdown All ASM instances from all nodes:

[grid@node2 oracle]# srvctl stop asm -n node1 -f

[grid@node2 oracle]# srvctl stop asm -n node2 -f

[grid@node2 oracle]# srvctl status asm -n node1


ASM is not running on node1

[grid@node2 oracle]# srvctl status asm -n node2


ASM is not running on node2
***Sometimes, Database administrator face some issues in stopping ASM
instance, In that case use "-f" option to forcefully shutdown ASM instances.

4. Shutdown Node applications running on nodes:

[grid@node2 oracle]# srvctl stop nodeapps -n node1 -f

[grid@node2 oracle]# srvctl status nodeapps -n node1


VIP node1-vip is enabled
VIP node1-vip is running on node: node1
Network is enabled
Network is running on node: node1
GSD is disabled
GSD is not running on node: node1
ONS is enabled
ONS daemon is running on node: node1

***Repeat same command for all nodes one by one. If you face any issue in
stopping node applications use "-f" as force option to stop applications.

5. Shut down the Oracle Clusterware or CRS:

[root@node1 bin]# crsctl check cluster -all

How to Start Oracle Real Application


Clusters Database ?
1. Start Oracle Clusterware or CRS.
2. Start Node applications running on nodes.
3. Start All ASM instances from all nodes.
4. Start RAC Database Instances on all nodes.
5. Start Oracle Home process accessing database.

1. Start Oracle Clusterware or CRS:

[root@node1 bin]# crsctl start crs


CRS-4123: Oracle High Availability Services has been started
[root@node2 bin]# crsctl check cluster -all
**************************************************************
node1:
CRS-4535: Cannot communicate with Cluster Ready Services
CRS-4529: Cluster Synchronization Services is online
CRS-4533: Event Manager is online
**************************************************************

node2:
CRS-4537: Cluster Ready Services is online
CRS-4529: Cluster Synchronization Services is online
CRS-4533: Event Manager is online
**************************************************************

***Here, DBA can see "CRS-4639: Could not contact Oracle High Availability
Services" or "CRS-4535: Cannot communicate with Cluster Ready Services"
messages. Wait 5 minutes and then again check with "crsctl check cluster -all"
command. This time Database administrator will get "CRS-4537: Cluster Ready
Services is online".
*****If still same issue DBA can start ora.crsd process to resolve this issue.
Below is the command
[root@node1 bin]# crsctl start res ora.crsd -init

[root@node1 bin]# crsctl check cluster -all


**************************************************************
node1:
CRS-4537: Cluster Ready Services is online
CRS-4529: Cluster Synchronization Services is online
CRS-4533: Event Manager is online
**************************************************************

node2:
CRS-4537: Cluster Ready Services is online
CRS-4529: Cluster Synchronization Services is online
CRS-4533: Event Manager is online
**************************************************************

2. Start Node applications running on nodes:

[grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl start nodeapps -n node1

[grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl status nodeapps -n node1


VIP node1-vip is enabled
VIP node1-vip is running on node: node1
Network is enabled
Network is running on node: node1
GSD is disabled
GSD is not running on node: node1
ONS is enabled
ONS daemon is running on node: node1
***DBA has to execute this command for each node to start Real Application
Clusters Cluster database.

3. Start All ASM instances from all nodes:

[grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl start asm -n node1

[grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl status asm -n node1


ASM is running on node1
DBA has to start ASM instance on all database nodes.

4. Start RAC Database Instances on all nodes:

[grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl start database -d RACDB

[grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl status database -d RACDB


Instance RACDB1 is running on node node1
Instance RACDB2 is running on node node2

5. Start Oracle Home process accessing database:

[grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl start listener -n node1

[grid@node1 bin]$ srvctl status listener -n node1


Listener LISTENER is enabled on node(s): node1
Listener LISTENER is running on node(s): node1
