SCAN listener and Node listener

http://www.mydbspace.com/?

p=324

Single Client Access Name (SCAN) is new feature of oracle 11gR2 grid infrastructure. This idea make client transparent to database servers. Any change in terms of adding deleting nodes and even moving database cluster to a new datacenter can be achieved without
changing anything in the client. That makes JDBC URL to use just a simple name to access the cluster independent of node name and database SIDs.

Scan listeners running on RAC only accept connections and pass them onto a Node listener.

When the client makes a connection, Connection packet is sent to a Scan listener. Connection is then redirected to a Node Listener. Node Listener forks the shadow process for the dedicated connection to use or passes the connection onto dispatcher for shared
server connection model.

The most intense operation a TNS listener does, the fork (bequeath) of a shadow process is completed by the Node listener.

Let us see how we can configure node listener for each of the database running on the RAC cluster. I have configured SCAN listener in 1521. I have two databases TST, PRD running on a two node cluster. My node names arerock,water.
These are the status of my SCAN listeners.

LISTENER_SCAN1 is no node water:

This is how my environment looks like if I put it in picture.

From the SCAN listener status above, It is clear that all SCAN listeners are aware of the node listeners no matter where node listener is listening on (1523, 1521). PMON registers with SCAN listener based on the remote_listener setting on database. And PMON
also register with node listener based on the local listener settings. Local/node listener will always point to the local VIP for the node while the remote_listener will point to SCAN_NAME:Port.

Now let us try connecting with TAF enable connect string.

PRDTAF =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = rac-scan)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = PRD)
(FAILOVER_MODE=
(TYPE=select)
(METHOD=basic))))

TSTTAF =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = rac-scan)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = TST)
(FAILOVER_MODE=
(TYPE=select)
(METHOD=basic))))

[oracle@linux1 admin]$ sqlplus system/oracle@TSTTAF

INSTANCE_NAME

TST2

Now my connection to TST went to TST2 instance on node water.

+ASM2:water.localdomain:oracle$ lsnrctl services LISTENER_SCAN1

Now the established connection count is 1 for LISTENER_TST. But for SCAN listener established connection count actually increased on LISTENER_SCAN3. That means LISTENER_SCAN3 actually received the request from client and forwarded to LISTENER_TST on water.

Now let us see how the failover works

SQL> select instance_name from v$instance;

INSTANCE_NAME
—————-
TST2

SQL>

Now issue a ‘shutdown abort’ on TST2.

TST2:water.localdomain:oracle$ si

SQL*Plus: Release 11.2.0.1.0 Production on Mon Aug 1 16:02:24 2011

SQL> shutdown abort;
ORACLE instance shut down.
SQL>

Let us see if my connection failed over to TST1 on node rock. Yes it did without an issue.

[oracle@linux1 admin]$ sqlplus system/oracle@TSTTAF

SQL*Plus: Release 11.2.0.1.0 Production on Mon Aug 1 16:00:10 2011

SQL> select instance_name from v$instance;

INSTANCE_NAME
—————-
TST2

SQL> select instance_name from v$instance;

INSTANCE_NAME
—————-
TST1

SQL>

Now we can pass the SCAN name and port to application installer or admin team and create as many node listeners as required. We don’t need to let application team to know different connection string and port for different databases on same RAC cluster. You
can note that I used SCAN (rac-scan) and port (1521) for both my databases. I segregated my listeners on 1521 and 1523 to PRD and TST databases respectively.
