In my earlier post, I had discussed about reboot-less node fencing , a new feature introduced since 11.2.0.2. In this post, I will demonstrate reboot-less node fencing when network heartbeat is lost. – Check that clusterware version is 11.2.0.3
[iyunv@host02 ~]# crsctl query crs activeversion
Oracle Clusterware active version on the cluster is [11.2.0.3.0] – check that both the nodes in the cluster are active
[iyunv@host02 ~]# olsnodes -s
host01 Active
host02 Active – Find out pvt interconnect
[iyunv@host02 ~]# oifcfg getif
eth0 192.9.201.0 global public eth1 10.0.0.0 global cluster_interconnect – Stop pvt interconnect on node2
[iyunv@host02 ~]# ifdown eth1 – Alert log of node2 – – Note that instead of rebooting the node, CRSD resources are cleaned up
