Reimaging a Compute Server

If a compute server is irretrievably damaged, then you must replace it and reimage the replacement server. During the reimaging procedure, the other compute servers in the cluster are available. When adding the new server to the cluster, you copy the software from a working compute server to the new server.

The following tasks describe how to reimage a compute server:

• "Contacting Oracle Support Services"

• "Downloading the Latest Release of the Cluster Verification Utility"

• "Removing the Failed Compute Server from the Cluster"

• "Preparing the USB Flash Drive for Imaging"

• "Copying the Image to the New Compute Server"

• "Configuring the Replacement Compute Server"

• "Preparing the Replacement Compute Server for the Cluster"

• "Applying Patch Bundles to a Replacement Compute Server"

• "Cloning the Oracle Grid Infrastructure"

• "Clone Oracle Database Homes to the Replacement Compute Server"
