Hardware refresh of RAC nodes by adding new nodes and removing the old nodes; addnode.sh process

edited Oct 20, 2016 5:00AM in Database Administration (MOSC) 1 commentAnswered

I am familiar with the process of adding and removing nodes from the cluster. How I am trying to accomplish something little different this time?

Since Oracle supports the process of upgrading OS from OL6 or RHEL 6 to OL7 or RHEL7 one node at a time in a multi node 12c (12.1.0.2) RAC cluster, I would like to use a similar process for adding a RHEL 7 node to a RHEL 6 cluster and remove RHEL 6 nodes to accomplish the following two goals with one effort

1) Refresh old nodes without downtime by add/remove RAC node process.
2) Add a new RHEL 7 node to RHEL 6 RAC cluster so that I do not have to schedule a separate maintenance for it.

Howdy, Stranger!
