Oracle DBA's : Oracle Grid Upgrade 12.2.0.1 to 18.3.0.0

Upgrading Oracle Grid Infrastructure

Oracle Grid Upgrade 12.2.0.1 to 18c

Upgrading to Oracle Database 18c

Upgrade Grid Infrastructure to 18c

STEP 1 Grid Upgrade:

Oracle Grid upgrade from 12g to 18c

PURPOSE: All documents are provided on this Blog just for educational purposes only. Please make sure that you run it in your test environment before to move on to production environment.

Preparation:

Keep following detail for later

srvctl config asm

ASM home: <CRS home>

Password file:

Backup of Password file:

ASM listener: LISTENER

Spfile: +DATA/asm/asmparameterfile/registry.253.1024325155

ASM diskgroup discovery string: /dev/*

We need to download following Files:

LINUX.X64_180000_grid_home.zip

p28096386_180000_Linux-x86-64.zip

Create NEW directory for NEW Oracle Grid home:

$ORACLE_BASE/product/18.0.0/grid_18c

mv /download/LINUX.X64_180000_grid_home.zip $ORACLE_BASE/product/18.0.0/grid_18c

unzip LINUX.X64_180000_grid_home.zip

Stop ASM and DB

SHUTDOWN DB FROM ASM HOME

srvctl status database -d KARDBPRD

Database is running.

srvctl stop database -d KARDBPRD

srvctl status listener -l LISTENER

srvctl stop listener -l LISTENER

srvctl status asm

ASM is running on kardbprd.us.com

srvctl stop asm -f

PRCR-1065 : Failed to stop resource ora.asm

CRS-2675: Stop of 'ora.DATA.dg' on 'kardbprd.us.com' failed

The workaround is to shutdown ASM using sqlplus(Doc ID 2271669.1)

sqlplus -s / as sysasm

shutdown immediate

Stop complete Restart stack with below command.

$crsctl stop has

crsctl stat res -t

After debugging I realized I need to start the process manually

crsctl start has

Executing rootupgrade.sh script again and got another error :

I have to start ASM via following command in a different screen.

srvctl start asm

Executing rootupgrade.sh script again:

/apps/oracle/product/18.0.0/grid_18c/rootupgrade.sh

It Works!

I just want to make sure that everything works properly after upgrade. I am going stop everything and will start again.

srvctl status asm

crsctl stat res -t

srvctl stop asm -f

Looks everything good. At this point my Grid ASM is running to the version 18.3.0 and my DB has 12.2.0.1 Version.

Let us upgrade DB now:

STEP 2 Database Upgrade:

Oracle database upgrade from 12g to 18c

1. Login as 12c DB

SQL> create pfile='/download/initDB_12c.ora' from spfile;

NOTE: Do not change this parameter keep as it is. You can do later.

*.compatible

I am using the GUI for Installation. Install Just Software.

We need following files. Download it and move or copy the file to the NEW $ORACLE_HOME

mv LINUX.X64_180000_db_home.zip /apps/oracle/product/18.0.0/db_18c

cd $ORACLE_HOME

unzip LINUX.X64_180000_db_home.zip

2. Install just Software.

export DISPLAY=xx.xx.xx.xx:0.0

unset ORACLE_BASE

unset ORACLE_HOME

unset ORACLE_SID

./runInstaller

Chose following options:

=>> Set Up Software Only

=>> Single Instance database installation

=>> Enterprise Edition

=>> chose the group you have. I chose “dba”

=>> Install

Execute the root script as a root user.

/apps/oracle/product/18.0.0/db_18c/root.sh

This is the output of the root.sh script:

The following environment variables are set as:

ORACLE_OWNER= oracle

ORACLE_HOME= /apps/oracle/product/18.0.0/db_18c

Enter the full pathname of the local bin directory: [/usr/local/bin]:

The contents of "dbhome" have not changed. No need to overwrite.

The contents of "oraenv" have not changed. No need to overwrite.

The contents of "coraenv" have not changed. No need to overwrite.

Entries will be added to the /etc/oratab file as needed by

Database Configuration Assistant when a database is created

Finished running generic part of root script.

Now product-specific root actions will be performed.

Do you want to setup Oracle Trace File Analyzer (TFA) now ? yes|[no] :

Oracle Trace File Analyzer (TFA - Non Daemon Mode) is available at :

/apps/oracle/product/18.0.0/db_18c/suptools/tfa/release/tfa_home/bin/tfactl

Note :

1. tfactl will use TFA Daemon Mode if TFA already running in Daemon Mode and user has access to TFA

2. tfactl will configure TFA Non Daemon Mode only if user has no access to TFA Daemon mode or TFA Daemon mode is not installed

Oracle Trace File Analyzer (TFA - Daemon Mode) can be installed by running this script :

/apps/oracle/product/18.0.0/db_18c/suptools/tfa/release/tfa_home/install/roottfa.sh

3. Execute preupgrade script as follow.

Execute fixup scripts as indicated below:

Before upgrade log into the database and execute the preupgrade fixups

@/apps/oracle/cfgtoollogs/KARDBPRD/preupgrade/preupgrade_fixups.sql

After the upgrade:

Log into the database and execute the postupgrade fixups

@/apps/oracle/cfgtoollogs/KARDBPRD/preupgrade/postupgrade_fixups.sql

Preupgrade complete: 2019-11-26T15:14:48

4. Run 12.2.0.1.0 $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql to recompile invalid

Check invalid Objects:

select comp_id,status from dba_registry;

Stop DB:

srvctl stop database -d KARDBPRD

srvctl stop listener -l LISTENER
