Change IP Address For Oracle RAC Public and VIP

This document outlines the steps to change the public and VIP interface IP addresses for an Oracle RAC cluster with two nodes. It involves bringing services offline, backing up configuration files, modifying interface configurations, VIP definitions, and host files on both nodes before restarting the cluster and verifying the changes.

Change IP address for oracle RAC public and VIP interfaces

1. Current Environment
1). Machine IP:
Node1: vmrac01
Node2: vmrac02

## eth1-Public
10.50.96.101 vmrac01 vmrac01.test.com
10.50.96.102 vmrac02 vmrac02.test.com
## eth0-Private
192.168.199.1 vmracprv01 vmracprv01.test.com
192.168.199.2 vmracprv02 vmracprv02.test.com
## VIP
10.50.96.103 vmracvip01 vmracvip01.test.com
10.50.96.104 vmracvip02 vmracvip02.test.com

2). cluster information:


cluster name — vm10cls
database name — v10c
Instance 1 — v10c1
Instance 2 — v10c2
Node1 — vmrac01
Node2 — vmrac02

2. New IP changing map(different subnet mask too):


10.50.96.101/255.255.255.0 vmrac01 –> 10.50.99.41/255.255.252.0
10.50.96.102/255.255.255.0 vmrac02 –> 10.50.99.42/255.255.252.0
10.50.96.103/255.255.255.0 vmracvip01 –> 10.50.99.43/255.255.252.0
10.50.96.104/255.255.255.0 vmracvip02 –> 10.50.99.44/255.255.252.0

3. steps 1 — change RAC IP settings


1). bring service down, make sure everything was offline except css daemon
bash-3.1$ srvctl stop database -d v10c
bash-3.1$ srvctl stop nodeapps -n vmrac01
bash-3.1$ srvctl stop nodeapps -n vmrac02
bash-3.1$ crs_stat -t
Name Type Target State Host
————————————————————
ora.v10c.db application OFFLINE OFFLINE
ora….c1.inst application OFFLINE OFFLINE
ora….c2.inst application OFFLINE OFFLINE
ora….SM1.asm application OFFLINE OFFLINE
ora….01.lsnr application OFFLINE OFFLINE
ora….c01.gsd application OFFLINE OFFLINE
ora….c01.ons application OFFLINE OFFLINE
ora….c01.vip application OFFLINE OFFLINE
ora….SM2.asm application OFFLINE OFFLINE
ora….02.lsnr application OFFLINE OFFLINE
ora….c02.gsd application OFFLINE OFFLINE
ora….c02.ons application OFFLINE OFFLINE
ora….c02.vip application OFFLINE OFFLINE

2). backup OCR and Voting disks


bash-3.1$ ocrcheck|grep -i file
Device/File Name : /dev/raw/raw1
bash-3.1$ crsctl query css votedisk
0. 0 /dev/raw/raw2
located 1 votedisk(s).

#dd if=/dev/raw/raw1 of=/database/temp/ocr_vote_bk/ocr.bak


#dd if=/dev/raw/raw2 of=/database/temp/ocr_vote_bk/vote.bak

3). get current config:


bash-3.1$ oifcfg getif
eth0 10.50.96.0 global public –current network for public
eth1 192.168.199.0 global cluster_interconnect –we are not going to change this

4). delete current public ip:


bash-3.1$ oifcfg delif -global eth0

5). change to new network:


bash-3.1$ oifcfg setif -global eth0/10.50.99.0:public

6). change vip address:


a. check current one
bash-3.1$ srvctl config nodeapps -n vmrac01 -a
VIP exists.: /vmracvip01/10.50.96.103/255.255.255.0/eth0
bash-3.1$ srvctl config nodeapps -n vmrac02 -a
VIP exists.: /vmracvip02/10.50.96.104/255.255.255.0/eth0
b. Modify VIP component (has to be the css owner, “root” usually)
#srvctl modify nodeapps -n vmrac01 -A 10.50.99.43/255.255.252.0/eth0
#srvctl modify nodeapps -n vmrac02 -A 10.50.99.44/255.255.252.0/eth0
c. double verify the changes
bash-3.1$ srvctl config nodeapps -n vmrac01 -a
VIP exists.: /vmracvip01/10.50.99.43/255.255.252.0/eth0
bash-3.1$ srvctl config nodeapps -n vmrac02 -a
VIP exists.: /vmracvip02/10.50.99.44/255.255.252.0/eth0

7). change the hosts file(on both nodes):


## eth1-Public
10.50.99.41 vmrac01 vmrac01.test.com
10.50.99.42 vmrac02 vmrac02.test.com
## eth0-Private
192.168.199.1 vmracprv01 vmracprv01.test.com
192.168.199.2 vmracprv02 vmracprv02.test.com
## VIP
10.50.99.43 vmracvip01 vmracvip01.test.com
10.50.99.44 vmracvip02 vmracvip02.test.com

8). if the listener is using any IP address, it also needs to be changed.

4. Steps 2 — change OS IP settings


1). change IP
[root@vmrac01]# vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=static
IPADDR=10.50.99.41
NETMASK=255.255.252.0
HWADDR=00:50:56:BD:05:14
ONBOOT=yes

[root@vmrac02]# vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=static
IPADDR=10.50.99.42
NETMASK=255.255.252.0
HWADDR=00:50:56:BD:3E:08
ONBOOT=yes

2). change the default gateway on both nodes (if needed, here since they are in same
vlan so i didn’t change them)
[root@vmrac01 ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network
NETWORKING_IPV6=yes
HOSTNAME=vmrac01
NETWORKING=yes
NISDOMAIN=nis
GATEWAY=10.50.96.1 <– here is the default gateway to be changed

3) Change the IP Address’es on the known_hosts ssh config files for oracle user
$ su – oracle
$ cd .ssh
$ cp known_hosts known_hosts.bak
$ modify the old IP’s to the new IP’s

4). restart network (on both node)


#service network restart

5). restart crs daemon (on both node)


#crsctl stop crs
#crsctl start crs
5. Step3 — verify everything
