Yes it is srvctl stop. Stupid typo.
I searched through all the log files in ORA_CRS_HOME, and concluded the problem occurs when running racgvip. In fact, the same error messages appeared when I ran racgvip in "test mode"...
root:$ORA_CRS_HOME/bin# export _USR_ORA_VIP=192.168.128.129 root:$ORA_CRS_HOME/bin# export _USR_ORA_NETMASK=255.255.255.0 root:$ORA_CRS_HOME/bin# export _USR_ORA_IF=eth0 root:$ORA_CRS_HOME/bin# export _CAA_NAME=ubuntu root:$ORA_CRS_HOME/bin# ./racgvip start root:$ORA_CRS_HOME/bin# ./racgvip check
(This showed VIP was brought up correctly. ifconfig confirmed that eth0:1 has IP address 192.168.128.129)
root:$ORA_CRS_HOME/bin# ./racgvip stop
bounce eth0 (host=ubuntu)
SIOCSIFADDR: File exists
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address
SIOCSIFNETMASK: Cannot assign requested address
SIOCSIFBRDADDR: Cannot assign requested address
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address
ifconfig showed that eth0:1 was still there. So racgvip could not bring down the VIP logical interface.
Further tracing showed that the actual commands executed by racgvip were:
/sbin/ifconfig eth0:2 192.168.128.129 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast
192.168.128.255 up
/sbin/ifconfig eth0:2 del 192.168.128.129
Changing eth0:2 to eth0:1 brings up the VIP interface.
It is 10g R2 (10.0.2.0.1). Since it is not a supported OS, it is hard to say whether all the requested packages are installed. But I believe what I have is OK after reading the numerous "Installing Oracle on Debian" guides.
vipca did not run correctly during install. I need to manually run oifcfg to config the interfaces, then things looks ok...
"srvctl config nodeapps -n <node>" shows nothing. Any suggestion? Received on Sat Sep 01 2007 - 02:47:31 CDT
