in [Oracle]

From: charles on 11 Jun 2010 14:23 Dear group, We are currently on Oracle 10.2.0.4 Oracle RAC on RedHat Linux. We are about to upgrade to 11gR2. According Oracle document, Prior to upgrading to Oracle RAC 11g, the Oracle Clusterware must be at least version 10.2.0.3 or 10.2.0.2 with CRS Bundle Patch #2 (reference Bug 5256865) if you would like to do a rolling upgrade. The 10.2.0.3 patchset (5337014) can be downloaded from Oracle Metalink. Our CRS is at 10.2.0.4, so we should not need to upgrade our clusterware, am i right? And CRS 11.2 is nowhere to be found anyway. Your suggestion is highly appreciated.

I upgraded the CRS and it went well, without a glitch. The only annoying thing is that now you have to ask the network administrator for yet another IP address, in addition to the virtual IP's. -- http://mgogala.byethost5.com

I noticed that CRS for 11gR2 is now support ASM cluster file system, we are currently using ASM disks currently, do you see any advantage to convert to ASM cluster file system during the upgrade?

I don't understand the question. You are using ASM currently and you are asking me whether I see any advantage from converting to ASM? -- http://mgogala.byethost5.com
