RAC Services
Hello champions !!!
I have 2 node RAC DB 12.2.0.1 running on MS Windows 2012 R2 platform.
Due to some earlier issues nodes were getting restart quite frequently which now seems stable after OS patch.
One thing surprised me that on restart of node 1 the sole PDB (not the seed) gets to OPEN state automatically.
Whereas when node 2 gets restart PDB remains in MOUNT state on node 2 while it remain open on node 1 as node 1 remain stable. So I had to manually login to node 2 and issue ALTER PLUGGABLE DATABSE OPEN PDB command. During my manual intervention all RAC services including scan_listener gets started and accept the client requests. During this time between RAC services started and PDB in MOUNT, incoming client login requests will get "DATABASE INITIALIZATION OR SHUTDOWN IN PROGRESS..."
