Shut Down, Reset, or Power Cycle the Oracle MiniCluster S7-2 Engineered System

Hi,

In this blog post, I want to share the required steps for Startup, Shut Down, Reset, or Power Cycle the Oracle MiniCluster S7-2 Engineered System.

Notify affected users that the server will be shut down.
Log into one of the nodes as an MCMU administrator such as mcinstall

mcinstall@dpwadm-n1:/var/home/mcinstall % mcmu status -G -k

List a Summary of All DB VM Groups

mcinstall@dpwadm-n1:/var/home/mcinstall % mcmu tenant -G -l

Stop the DB grid infrastructure

mcinstall@dpwadm-n1:/var/home/mcinstall % mcmu stop -G -n VMgroupname

Here, where VMgroupname is the name of the DB VM group. You can learn with “mcmu tenant -G -l”

Stop the GI in the kernel zones on node1 and node2.

mcinstall@dpwadm-n1:/var/home/mcinstall % mcmu stop -G -k node1
mcinstall@dpwadm-n1:/var/home/mcinstall % mcmu stop -G -k node2

Re-check Workgroup status

mcinstall@dpwadm-n1:/var/home/mcinstall % mcmu status -G -k

Shut down all the zones in VM group dpwyadm

mcinstall@dpwadm-n1:/var/home/mcinstall % mcmu stop -V -n dpwyadm

Check running status

mcinstall@dpwadm-n1:/var/home/mcinstall % zoneadm list -civ

If there are “running” state then stop the kernel zones.

mcinstall@dpwadm-n1:/var/home/mcinstall % mcmu stop -Z -k node1
[INFO ] Log file path : dpwadm-n1:/var/opt/oracle.minicluster/setup/logs/mcmu_121818_131505.log
[INFO ] Check if initial setup complete
[INFO ] Checking if nodes are in sync
Do you want to shut down zone acfskz? [yes/no] (no): yes
[INFO ] Zone acfskz has been shut down
mcinstall@dpwadm-n1:/var/home/mcinstall % mcmu stop -Z -k node2
[INFO ] Log file path : dpwadm-n1:/var/opt/oracle.minicluster/setup/logs/mcmu_121818_131716.log
[INFO ] Check if initial setup complete
[INFO ] Checking if nodes are in sync
Do you want to shut down zone acfskz? [yes/no] (no): yes
[INFO ] Zone acfskz has been shut down

OR You want to shut down the whole system with one command.

mcinstall@dpwadm-n1:/var/home/mcinstall % mcmu stop -S

Shutdown one node:

mcinstall@dpwadm-n1:/var/home/mcinstall % mcmu stop -N node1
mcinstall@dpwadm-n1:/var/home/mcinstall % mcmu stop -N node2

For a full power down, perform the remaining steps. Now, you can stop ILOMs. Oracle ILOM CLI – In a terminal window, enter:
