Creating public virtual IP addresses for use by Oracle

Oracle requires one virtual public network address for the Oracle listener process on each node.

1. On each node, select a public NIC device and configure a virtual IP address for it. For example:

   # ifconfig en0:1 plumb

   # ifconfig en0:1 inet 110.10.11.1 netmask 255.255.255.0

   # ifconfig en0:1 up

   Configure one virtual public NIC on each node.

     Note   Add the virtual IP addresses to DNS.
