multi node to multi node cloning

[Sri]

Hi Erman,

We have a clone from prod to existing uat(2node to 2node).we use shared application tier in both source and target.we have unzipped the EBSapps folder in target primary node and ran adcfgclone with backup xml file and it went successfully

Now,what steps needs to be executed in secondary node in target
1)do we need to run adcfgclone again on secondary node with backup xml file
OR
2)Just run autoconfig with backup xml file
OR
3)perl ./adclonectx.pl addnode contextfile=backup_xml_2ndnode dualfs=yes

we need your advice

As always,Thank you

If you have completed cloning operation on target node 1, then add the target node 2 by following ->
"Cloning Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2 with Rapid Clone (Doc ID 1383621.1)"
"5.3 Adding a New Application Tier Node to an Existing System"

Thanks erman,As we are using shared application tier filesystem and as per the note id,found below command to execute on secondary node

$ cd /u01/12.2/fs1/EBSapps/comn/clone/bin
$ /u01/12.2/fs1/FMW_Home/webtier/perl/bin/perl ./adclonectx.pl \
addnode contextfile=/u01/12.2/fs1/inst/apps/VIS_appstier1/appl/admin/VIS_appstier1.xml \
pairsfile=/u01/12.2/pairsfile/mypairsfile.txt \
dualfs=yes

As we want to use existing backup contextfile on secondary node,can we make the above command as below

/u01/12.2/fs1/FMW_Home/webtier/perl/bin/perl ./adclonectx.pl \
addnode contextfile=/u01/12.2/fs1/inst/apps/VIS_appstier2/appl/admin/VIS_appstier2.xml \
dualfs=yes

Thank you

aha. You are using shared apps filesystem on target..
Okay then follow ->

5.3.1 Steps for adding a node on a shared file system

"Refer to Section 4 of My Oracle Support Knowledge Document 1375769.1, Sharing the Application Tier File System in Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2, for detailed instructions on adding nodes on a shared file system."

Thanks erman

Note id describes about adclonectx.pl which will create a new context file,but i already have a context file and i want to use the same context file to configure.In this case can i issue the below command to configure both run/patch on second node

/u01/12.2/fs1/FMW_Home/webtier/perl/bin/perl ./adclonectx.pl \
addnode contextfile=/u01/12.2/fs1/inst/apps/VIS_appstier1/appl/admin/VIS_appstier2.xml \
dualfs=yes

Need your advice erman

Why don't you follow the standard steps and then run autoconfig with your context file, once the standard steps are completed?

[Sri]

Thanks for your advice erman.sure will follow

once the standard steps are done,just wanted to know if i can run autoconfig with my existing backup context file so that i will have same configuration
