Adding a Remote Oracle Domain Service Cluster GIMR to an Existing Cluster

Complete this procedure to add a remote Oracle Domain Services Cluster Grid Infrastructure Management Repository (GIMR) to an Oracle Standalone Cluster that was initially configured without a GIMR.

  1. As the grid user on the Oracle Standalone Cluster, get the cluster Globally Unique Identifier (GUID) of the Oracle Standalone Cluster to which you want to add a GIMR.
    $ Grid_home/bin/crsctl get css clusterguid
  2. As the grid user on the Oracle Domain Services Cluster, create a GIMR pluggable database (PDB) for the Oracle Standalone Cluster and generate the client data file.
    $ /u01/app/21.0.0/gimr/bin/mgmtca createRepos 
    -clientDataFile client_data_file_location -clusterName standalone_cluster_name 
    -guid standalone_cluster_guid [-version standalone_cluster_version]
  3. Copy the client data file from the Oracle Domain Services Cluster to the Oracle Standalone Cluster.
  4. As the grid user on the Oracle Standalone Cluster, configure the remote GIMR.
    $ Grid_home/bin/mgmtca configRepos deploySchema -clientDataFile client_data_file_location
