RAC to NON RAC Database clone 11gR2

This posts illustrates steps for cloning a 11gR2 RAC database to a single Instance database.  There are many ways to perform a RAC database to NON-RAC database clone, but the below illustrated seems to be the easiest approach for me compare to all other methods.

In this demonstration oelrac1 & oelrac2 are OEL 5.6 Linux hosts running 11.2.0.1 GI and 11.2.0.1 database.


- erpnode3 running OEL 5.6 configured with all database OS pre-requisites, but does not contain any oracle product installed on it.

Steps:

1) perform  full database backup from any of the RAC Instance

2) create pfile and edit it as per the requirement

- remove all cluster related parameters

- Here i am using db_name= prod, as this name is stored in controlfile. We can change it after completion of clone

 3) Clone RDBMS $ORACLE_HOME

- create tar file for ORACLE_HOME from any of the RAC node
- copy to remote server and untar it
- Disable RAC configuration from oracle home & relink binaries
- create password file
- copy backup pieces to the remote host. I have copied it on the same directory location (/u01/11g_db/rman_db_backups)

9) change the database name

- Here SID is TEST and database name is PROD, just change the database name using dbnewid utility
-verify the database name
- shutdown database
- startup nomount
- use nid command to change
- edit initilization parameter file and change db_name parameter from "prod" to "TEST"
- startup mount and open database with resetlogs option


[ora11g@erpnode3 ~]$ echo $ORACLE_SID
TEST



[ora11g@erpnode3 ~]$ nid TARGET=SYS/password DBNAME=TEST

Great work Zaheer

Terrific work...

Request you to kindly specify the path from where we have to remove the cluster related entries.
Syed Zaheer said…
Thanks for appreciation.

Please refer sample initialization parameter file listed above for all required parameters on a non-rac host.

thanks,

Assalamualaikum zaheer, the total steps in RAC to non RAC is 10, the 8 number is come in two times, just look at the steps which you are given in this blogs, 8 number comes two times
Unknown said…
great job
- i had the same work but on rac 10.2.0.5 and i have done with rman duplicate to .... works :)
Unknown said…
Really nice work..Zaheer..
I have a small doubt...
You issued "list backup of archivelog all" in step 6 by connecting to clone node as a target database....my question is ..we have restored & mounted backup copy of control file in cloning node..how come backup control file holds updated metadata about the recent backup sets before restoring and recovering it on the same node ?
Plz clarify my doubt...
Thnz in advance..

Salam bhai,

Very good explanation. how to read AWR report and take action according to that.

zainul from oracle expert group.
Yousuf said…
Great work, appreciated..!!
Well drafted and executed.
Xaheer's post are handy tools for all Major DB related tasks.

Few are below things that would add up more value to this post cloning from rac to non-rac:-

Firstly :
to convert binaries from rac to non rac it should be noted that
"make -f ins_rdbms.mk rac_off" &"make -f ins_rdbms.mk ioracle" command should be run from $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib not from $ORACLE_HOME/lib or any other.
Someone above asked in the comment.

Secondly got a new issue with my latest cloning from rac to non-rac for the first time.
v$logfile dispalyed members as "+DATA" instead of providing "+DATA\prod\onlinelog1a.dbf" for all the logfile and when we try to rename it got below error:

GROUP# STATUS TYPE MEMBER IS_
---------- ------- ------- -------------------------------------------------- ---
1 INVALID ONLINE +DATA NO
1 INVALID ONLINE +DATA NO
2 INVALID ONLINE +DATA NO
2 INVALID ONLINE +DATA NO
3 INVALID ONLINE +DATA NO
4 INVALID ONLINE +DATA NO
11 ONLINE +CCB_DATA/ccbprod/onlinelog/group_11_2_1.dbf NO


WHEN I TRY TO DROP THEM ITS SAYS FILE DOESN'T EXIST.

NOW LET'S STRAIGHT AWAY GO TO SOLUTION:

SOLUTION A:
ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS fails with ORA-00392 (NOTE 1352133.1)

SOLUTION B:

Hi Yousuf,

This issue may have happened as you have not set log_file_name_convert or db_create_online_log_dest_n parameters before restore and you are cloning from ASM to non-ASM.
To avoid it set any 1 of the parameters and retry the restore/recovery.
To resolve the issue we did below actions:

>> drop the logfile group:

alter database drop logfile group ;

If it doesn't drop, check the status of the logfile and clear it:

alter database clear unarchived logfile group ;

after this runs drop the logfile group and drop it.

ORA Error Encountered:
ORA-00360, ORA-00392, ORA-00312, ORA-00349

Hopefully this might assist you.

Regards,
Usuf.

Where does "perl adcfgclone.pl dbTechStack" fit into this procedure in an 11.5.10.2 environment? Aren't there additional steps to get adcfgclone and AutoConfig to correctly configure the database listener when cloning from RAC to non-RAC? Thanks!

Sometimes list backup of archivelog may not give you the sequence no in the right order.It lists the sequence in the order in which backup was performed.I think using "list backup of archivelog all by file" would be more appropriate.

Enable Desktop on Oracle Solaris 11.4

Oracle Solaris 11 installation has multiple options to choose for installation of an Operating Environment, but mostly Oracle Solaris text install media is used and this installation media doesn't offer the GUI Desktop Environment by default after the installation. This blog post will explain how we can enable the desktop for Oracle Solaris 11.4 operating system, after the completion of installation. We have to install "solaris-desktop" package and reboot the machine and GUI desktop will be enabled for the Operating System. In this blog post my virtual machine is connected to the internet and hence I am able to use available pupblic repository for package installation, if in case internet is not available for the server/machine then we have configure the local/Server  repository for the installation. Follow the below steps for desktop package installation: After installation of dekstop package we are now able to login with GUI desktop environment
