Solaris

Hi, I am using Oracle 10gR2 on Solaris 10.

I have two machines which are part of sun cluster. This is active-passive cluster. Node 1 is active and the Node 2 is passive. Both Node 1 and Node 2 are connected to separate SANs. Both nodes have separate databases. On both nodes, the database datafiles, control files, redologs are on mount point /u01.

Now I have to move node 1 to some other location, and there it would be not be part of sun cluster. I will connect the node 1 to a new SAN.

If I move node1 to new location. Connect the SAN and create the mount point /u01, and then copy all the data files, control files, redo logs to /u01 and then start the database, then is this the ok strategy?

Does SUN cluster has any effect on the Oracle database or is it transparent to the Oracle database?

regards

If you know how to move an Oracle database to a new host, you'll have no problems (Sun Cluster manages cluster resources and is not a constraint for the moving).

It's not clear from your post if you use Sun Cluster as a high availability solution for your database(s), but if you do so and you're moving to a single host, you should consider that too (if the new machine goes down, the database will not be available).
