You plan to use DBCA to convert a single-instance Oracle 12c database on a local filesystem on a stand-alone server to RAC by using ASM.
You installed Grid Infrastructure 12c on a four-node cluster.
Examine this list of possible conversion steps:
1. Create a template and image les from the single-instance database by using DBCA.
2. Perform an RMAN backup of the single-instance database.
3. Validate the cluster using CLUVFY.
4. Copy the template and image les to a cluster node.
5. Restore the RMAN backup to the recovery area disk group on the cluster.
6. Perform an Oracle Database 12c RAC installation.
7. Create a RAC database with DBCA using the RMAN backup.
8. Create a RAC database with DBCA using the template.
Which statement correctly lists the minimum steps required to perform the conversion?
A.
1, 3, 4, 6, 8
B.
2, 3, 5, 7
C.
2, 5, 6, 7
D.
1, 4, 6, 8
E.
1, 4, 8
F.
2, 5, 7
Correct A
Source:
RAC admin 3-26
D
Minimum, so no cluvfy needed
A
A
Real Application Clusters Administration and Deployment Guide:
-Use DBCA to Create an Image of the Single-Instance Database
-Complete the Oracle Clusterware Installation
-Validate the Cluster
-Copy the Preconfigured Database Image
-Install Oracle Database 12c Software with Oracle RAC
I also think that cluvfy is not mandatory, but I’d choose A on test.
