How to Downgrade 19C Grid Infrastructure to 12.1.0.2

ENVIRONMENT DETAILS: 2 NODES – ambeth01 and ambeth02 Grid owner – oragrid 19C ORACLE_HOME(current) – > /u01/app/19.0.0.0/grid 12C ORACLE_HOME (old) -> /u01/app/12.1.0.2/grid/bin Check the current grid version:( check on both the nodes) [oragrid@ambeth01 ~]$ crsctl query crs activeversion Oracle Clusterware active version on the cluster is [19.0.0.0.0] [oragrid@ambeth01 ~]$ crsctl query crs softwareversion -all Oracle Clusterware version on node [ambeth01] is [19.0.0.0.0] Oracle Clusterware version on node [ambeth02] is [19.0.0.0.0] [oragrid@ambeth01 ~]$ 1. As the first step for downgrade, remove the MGMTDB. Move the MGMTDB database on node1, if its running on node2.

ASM disk resizing in supercluster

Steps : 1 # login the global DB domain as root user and verfiy the ASM disk size dcli -l root -g /root/cell_group "cellcli -e list griddisk attributes name,size where name like \'DATAC3.*\'" Steps 2: # login the global DB domain as a root user and verify the all griddisk status. dcli -l root -g /root/cell_group 'cellcli -e "list griddisk attributes name,asmmodestatus,asmdeactivationoutcome,status"' Steps 3: # check the physical disk size and free space. cellcli -e "list celldisk where name like 'CD.*' attributes name, size, freespace" # check particular asm diskgroup disk size. cellcli -e "list griddisk where name like 'DATAC3.*' attributes name, size" Steps 4: # resize the ASM LUN's node by node. Please check below attached output values. as root user. # ssh sscceladm01 # cellcli -e alter griddisk DATAC3_CD_00_sscceladm01,DATAC3_CD_01_sscceladm01,DATAC3_CD_02_sscceladm01,DATAC3_CD_03_sscceladm01,DATAC3_CD_04_s...
