I am in the process of converting the Single instance to RAC (2 node) using dbca.
SI is on Node A on ext3 filesystem.
RAC nodes are : Node A (SI lies on same node Local FS )
Node B
Using dbca from SI oracle home, i created a Template.
This template is not visible, when i try to Create db by invoking dbca from RAC oracle home ??
Am i missing something ??
Is my SI node also has to be on cluster, before converting to RAC???
I am using 10.2 on linux, with ocfs2 as shared FS.
Thx.

If you want the new home to see the template, you should go to the old
ORACLE_HOME/assistants/dbca/templates and copy all the relevant files to the NEW_ORACLE_HOME/assistants/dbca/templates
Not sure however if this is the best method

When i take the backup as templates, what exactly oracle writes there ??
The dbca says it consits of structre as well as actual datafiles etc.
But when i check the template folder size, it is very small.
Thx.

Definaitely it writes data. DBCA itself says that during template creations. Also it says that i stores data in compressed form.
I observed it is almost 1:10 rate compression.
I am just wondering how it takes the backup.....becoz it is not exact image copies.
Whether it is RMAN type OR export Import type Or SQL queries etc ????????????????
