Oracle 19c Grid Infrastructure Upgrade from Oracle 18c on Exadata X7

Hi,

I will explain Oracle 19c Grid Infrastructure Upgrade from Oracle 18c on Exadata X7 in this post.

 

 

If you don’t know what is the Oracle RAC and Exadata, you can read following articles.

You can download Oracle 19c installation file from Metalink and following link.

https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/oracle19c-linux-downloads.html

 

 

Download Grid Infrastructure software and upload into Exadata. Unzip files and run sh gridSetup.sh file to start Upgrade.

Upgrade Oracle Grid Infrastructure is selected automatically. Click Next.

 

 

Select the Cluster nodes in this step. We have 8 nodes, so I have chosen them as following.

Click SSH Connectivity and do manual SSH Connectivity between nodes if it doesn’t exist.

 

 

 

You can register Oracle GI 19c with Enterprise manager Cloud Control.

 

 

Type Oracle base in this step.

 

You can select Automatically run configuration scripts.

 

 

There is no important error in this step, you can ignore these errors. Click submit and start Upgrade.

 

 

 

 

Upgrade is started.

 

 

 

 

In this step, you should run rootupgrade.sh on all nodes.

 

 

Firstly run rootupgrade.sh on first node, then you can perform other nodes same time. Finally Run the last node as follows.

 

[root@msdbadmdb01 tmp]# /u01/app/19.0.0/grid/rootupgrade.sh
Performing root user operation.

The following environment variables are set as:
ORACLE_OWNER= grid
ORACLE_HOME= /u01/app/19.0.0/grid

Enter the full pathname of the local bin directory: [/usr/local/bin]: 
The contents of "dbhome" have not changed. No need to overwrite.
The contents of "oraenv" have not changed. No need to overwrite.
The contents of "coraenv" have not changed. No need to overwrite.

Entries will be added to the /etc/oratab file as needed by
Database Configuration Assistant when a database is created
Finished running generic part of root script.
Now product-specific root actions will be performed.

2. Before downgrading the last node, the Grid Infrastructure stack on all other cluster nodes must be down.
