Re: Question on interconnect configuration

Anurag,

I've found the oifcfg utility to be quite trustworthy and I'd take this information to mean pretty clearly that you're using bge0 for public traffic and all interconnect traffic uses bge3 (192.168.1.x). The GV$CONFIGURED_INTERCONNECTS view shows all interconnects that Oracle is aware of. As far as I know, Oracle won't use a public interface for interconnect traffic.

I don't think you've got anything to worry about. I haven't looked at the GV$CONFIGURED_INTERCONNECTS view in all the installs I've done, but I've looked at oifcfg output a lot and your output below looks normal to me.

Subject: Question on interconnect configuration

Hi All, 

 

one question on interconnect in our 2 node RAC(Oracle RAC 10.2.0.3.0 on Solaris 9 with Oracle clusterware and rawdevices for OCR and Voting Disk)...

 

I ran the below query 


select * from gv$configured_interconnects
/

INST_ID NAME   IP_ADDR      IS_PUBLIC    SOURCE
====================================================================
1             bge3     192.168.1.21        NO         Oracle Cluster Repository

1             bge0     10.1.40.17          YES         Oracle Cluster Repository
2             bge3     192.168.1.22        NO         Oracle Cluster Repository

2             bge0     10.1.40.18          YES         Oracle Cluster Repository


$  oifcfg getif
bge0  10.1.40.0      global  public
bge3  192.168.1.0  global  cluster_interconnect

 

 

 

 

Does this mean that the RAC is using both Public and private interfaces for 

interconnect??

 

Why does it show the public interface in the GV$CONFIGURED_INTERCONNECTS??

 

How to find out whether only the private interface is used for interconnect ??

 

Should i go for ocrdump command?
