Deleting a Node from Existing Oracle RAC on Container Cluster

First identify the node you want to remove from RAC Container Cluster, then login to container and execute below-

cd /opt/scripts/startup/scripts/
python3 main.py --delracnode="del_rachome=true;del_gridnode=true"

E.g In this example we will delete racnodep3 from a cluster of 3 nodes viz. racnodep1,racnodep2, racnodep3.

podman exec -it racnodep3 bash
cd /opt/scripts/startup/scripts/
python3 main.py --delracnode="del_rachome=true;del_gridnode=true"

Validate racnodep3 is deleted successfully from Oracle RAC on Container Cluster -

podman exec -it racnodep1 bash
[root@racnodep1 bin]# /u01/app/21c/grid/bin/olsnodes -n
racnodep1       1
racnodep2       2

Now racnodep3 container can be removed by running command-

podman rm -f racnodep3
