管理Oracle RAC工具及命令

Tools for Installing, Configuring and Managing Oracle RAC

The following is a description of the tools used for installing, configuring, and managing an Oracle RAC database:

• Oracle Universal Installer (OUI)–OUI installs the Oracle Clusterware and the Oracle Database software with Oracle RAC. After you configure the nodes that you want to use in your cluster, OUI installs the Oracle software on the specified nodes using a network connection.

• Cluster Verification Utility (CVU)–The CVU is a command-line tool that you can use to verify a range of cluster and Oracle RAC components such as shared storage devices, networking configurations, system requirements, and Oracle Clusterware, as well as operating system groups and users. You can use the CVU for preinstallation as well as postinstallation checks of your cluster environment. The CVU is especially useful during preinstallation and during installation of Oracle Clusterware and Oracle RAC components. OUI runs the CVU after the Oracle Clusterware installation to verify your environment.

• Oracle Enterprise Manager –Oracle Enterprise Manager has both the Database Control and Grid Control graphical user interfaces (GUIs) for managing single- instance and Oracle RAC environments.

• Server Control (SRVCTL)–SRVCTL is a command-line interface that you can use to manage an Oracle RAC database from a single point. You can use SRVCTL to start and stop the database and instances, and to delete or move instances and services. You can also use SRVCTL to add services and manage configuration information. You use SVRCTL to start and stop a group of applications that includes virtual IP addresses, Listeners, Oracle Notification Services, node-level applications, and Oracle Enterprise Manager agents (for maintenance purposes).

• Cluster Ready Services Control (CRSCTL)–CRSCTL is a command-line tool that you can use to manage Oracle Clusterware. You can use CRSCTL to start and stop Oracle Clusterware and to determine the current status of your Oracle Clusterware installation.
