STAGE-2
2.a RAC Nodes Configuration
once vmware server get installed , open the VMware Intrastructure Web Access Console from desktop shortcut or by pointing your browser to one of the two following URLs depending on whether you need Secure HTTP or not.
http://machine-name:8222
https://machine-name:8333
if you are using Secure HTTP, your browser may fail due to the self-signed certificate. In Firefox you can solve this by clicking the "Or you can add an exception..." link on the failure page.
On the resulting page, click the "Add Exception..." button..
On the "Add Security Exception" page, click the "Get Certificate" button, then click the "Confirm Security Exception" button.
You are then presented with the web-based login screen.
The first stage that i got stuck is here , as the web console asking for username and password , what i have to provide ? it did'nt ask for configuring a username and password while installation . I given my os username that i used to login (mahesh) but it is not taking..
Then i googled the error and Finally, I found from searching VMware site that VMware server always expects the user name "Administrator". By default windows 7 does not enable administrator account with "Administrator" name. To do this, you need to execute following command at the command line prompt.
Command window must be opened with "Run as Administrator". You can do this by going to "All Programs->Accessories". Here you would see "Command Prompt". Take your cursor there and press right click on that line. You would see "Run as Administrator". Click on that. It opens the command prompt window.
There you should type "net user administrator /active:yes". This would be enable hidden "Administrator" user.
Next step is to assign the password to "Administrator" user. Go to 'Control Panel->User Accounts and Family Safety->Add or remove user accounts". Here you would see "Administrator" user. Click on it and add a password to it. Now you should be able to login in to the VMware server using "Administrator" and password you have set for the user.
Log in with the user specified during the config stage and you are presented with the VMware Intrastructure Web Access Console.
In vmware server all files related to virtual machines are stored under datastore , by default it will detect a datastore named 'standard' and you can use that also . Here i created a seperate datastore name rac in my external hard disk by using the option add datastore .
Select the "Linux operating system" option, and set the version to "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 (64-bit)", then click the "Next" button.
Enter the required amount of memory and number of CPUs for the virtual machine, then click the "Next" button. You should enter a minimum of 2048MB of memory.
Click on the "Create a New Virtual Disk" link or click the "Next" button.
Create New Virtual DISK (Hard Disk) , Size 30 GB
Click the "Add a Network Adapter" link or click the "Next" button.
Select the "Bridged" option and click the "Next" button.Add a Network Adapter first with bridged Network (RAC Environment We need to configure TWO adapter, Add another adapter later ).
Nest option is to configure CD-DRIVE here i chose Use an ISO image as i dowloaded the OEL5.6 iso image from https://edelivery.oracle.com/linux . If you plan to use ISO image file the software file should be in Virtual Machine Datastore.
And here i selected the iso image of OEL5.6 (Enterprise-R5-U6-Server-x86_64-dvd.iso) that i kept in f:\ drive ( ie in my datastore) . I downlaoded a single iso file that comes to 3.53 GB.
On the next screen Click the "Don't Add a Floppy Drive" link. as we dont need floppy drive
Click the "Add a USB Controller" link, or click the "Next" button.
