3. Change the Oracle word size for each $ORACLE_HOME. This step requires the
following:
Shut down all databases associated with the $ORACLE_HOME.
Remove (delete) all Virtual Oracle Services associated with the $OR-
ACLE_HOME.
Change the word size from 32-bit to 64-bit for each database according to
the Oracle documentation.
NOTE:
All databases associated with an $ORACLE_HOME must be migrated
together. That is, all database services associated with a single Oracle
binary install must be shutdown and migrated as a set.
Recreate all previously deleted Virtual Oracle Services across the high IP
group.
4. Upgrade the low IP group.
5. Redistribute the Oracle Virtual Services among the servers in the cluster as they
were before the upgrade.
1. Upgrade the high IP group
IMPORTANT:
Upgrade the server with the highest IP address first. Then continue to upgrade the
servers in the high IP group in descending order of IP address, with the lowest
numbered server being upgraded last.
1. As the Oracle user, move any MxDB-Oracle-HiAv services that are active on the
server to a server in the lower IP group. Using the following mxdb command,
reorder the list of servers configured for the Virtual Oracle Service to include
only servers in the low IP group. (low_IP is the IP address of a server in the low
IP group.)
$ mxdb -d <sid> -m low_IP:low_IP:low_IP:lowIP
2. As user root, disable the server:
# mx server disable <server>
Upgrade Matrix Server and MxDB-Oracle-HiAv and change the Oracle word size50
