The post assumes all other pre-reqs related to adding a node have been completed. The new node is called rhel72.
1. As the first step create an image from an existing node. Steps in creating a gold image could be used for this.
2. Unzip gold image in the new node on the same directory structure as existing nodes.
3. Removing following files from the new node.
rm -rf $GI_HOME/network/admin/*.ora rm -rf $GI_HOMEroot.sh*4. Run gridsetup and select software only option.
# /opt/app/18.x.0/grid/root.sh
Performing root user operation.
The following environment variables are set as:
ORACLE_OWNER= grid
ORACLE_HOME= /opt/app/18.x.0/grid
Creating /etc/oratab file...
Entries will be added to the /etc/oratab file as needed by
Database Configuration Assistant when a database is created
Finished running generic part of root script.
Now product-specific root actions will be performed.
To configure Grid Infrastructure for a Cluster or Grid Infrastructure for a Stand-Alone Server execute the following command as grid user:
/opt/app/18.x.0/grid/gridSetup.sh
This command launches the Grid Infrastructure Setup Wizard. The wizard also supports silent operation, and the parameters can be passed through the response file that is available in the installation media.Complete the GI software only install.
5. From an existing node run gridSetup with noCopy option and select add node.
on exisitng node run gridsetup.sh -noCopyThe noCopy option will prevent GI binaries being copied to remote node being added, since it's already has software installed. Rest of the steps for adding the node is same as previous add node post.Run the root.sh on the new node when prompted. Output from root.sh on the new node is shown below.
# /opt/app/18.x.0/grid/root.sh
Performing root user operation.
The following environment variables are set as:
ORACLE_OWNER= grid
ORACLE_HOME= /opt/app/18.x.0/grid
Enter the full pathname of the local bin directory: [/usr/local/bin]:
The contents of "dbhome" have not changed. No need to overwrite.
The contents of "oraenv" have not changed. No need to overwrite.
The contents of "coraenv" have not changed. No need to overwrite.
Entries will be added to the /etc/oratab file as needed by
Database Configuration Assistant when a database is created
Finished running generic part of root script.
Now product-specific root actions will be performed.
Relinking oracle with rac_on option
