Proper steps to remove a node from a cluster

edited May 8, 2012 3:51PM in Database - RAC/Scalability (MOSC) 1 commentAnswered
Hi,We want to remove a Linux server from a 3 nodes cluster in DEV environment and re_deploy it into a completely different cluster in PROD environment.
We only want to preserve the OS and the network interface.

The cluster is in 11.2.0.3 with ASM
The listeners are configured in GRID_HOME
The RAC is in 10.2.0.4.

Could you validate if the following steps are correct:
- Deleting RAC instances on the node to be deleted :

        - ocrconfig –showbackup to verify we have a good backup of OCR
        - shutdown all the database instances to be deleted.
        - srvctl remove instance –d db_uniq_name  –i instance_name  ( repeat for all instances on the node to be deleted )

Howdy, Stranger!
