CHAPTER 7
Oracle RAC Basic Administration

Oracle Real Application Clusters database administration is similar to single-instance database administration. Accomplishing tasks such as managing users, datafiles, tablespaces, controlfiles, and undo tablespaces is similar to managing those aspects in a single-instance environment. The information in this chapter assumes that you are familiar with single-instance database administration and focuses on aspects of Oracle RAC that are different from those of a single instance. This chapter covers the tasks of administering an Oracle RAC database in an Oracle RAC instance and administering an Oracle RAC database and database objects.
