Troubleshooting Upgrade for Oracle Grid Home

During an Oracle upgrade, refreshing an Environment will generally discover new Oracle installations, allowing for virtual database (VDB) or dSource upgrade to be handled through the UI. However, if the Oracle Grid home is changed, due to an Oracle upgrade, the crsClusterHome parameter will need to be updated manually through command line (CLI).

Resolution

To upgrade Oracle for Home Grid

Locate the Environment using the Delphix Engine Admin CLI (or equivalent login)

yourengine> /environment; ls

Objects

    clusterUser: ora12201
    crsClusterHome: /u01/app/112/grid 
    crsClusterName:

    remoteListener: (unset)
    scan: (unset)
    scanManual: false
    version: 


Operations

2. Update the crsClusterHome parameter to reflect the updated location, and commit the change.

yourengine environment '000.00.000.0'> update
yourengine environment '000.00.000.0' update *> set crsClusterHome=/u01/app/12.2.0/grid
yourengine environment '000.00.000.0' update *> commit
    Dispatched job JOB-15
    ENVIRONMENT_UPDATE job started for "000.00.000.0".
    ENVIRONMENT_UPDATE job for "000.00.000.0" completed successfully.

3. Verify the updated value by checking 'ls' output for the environment, or using the GUI.

yourengine environment '000.00.000.0'> ls
Properties
    type: OracleCluster
    name: 000.00.000.0
    clusterUser: ora12201
    crsClusterHome: /u01/app/12.2.0/grid
    crsClusterName: bbrac3638
    description: 
    enabled: true
    primaryUser: ora12201
    reference: ORACLE_CLUSTER-1
    remoteListener: (unset)
    scan: bbrac3638-scan
