Cluster interconnect: It’s a private interface used for the cluster-ware to provide inter-instance or
Cache Fusion communication. This is also called as private IP address.
We can change it at any stage, it require full outage.
Step 1: Determine private IP address
[oracle@test1 ~]$ oifcfg getif
eth0 192.168.1.0 global public
eth1 10.0.0.0 global cluster_interconnect
Step 2: Determine Ethernet card name
[oracle@test1 ~]$ oifcfg iflist
eth0 192.168.1.0
eth1 10.0.0.0
Step 3: Add new interface Subnet ID specification:
[oracle@test1 ~]$ oifcfg setif -global eth1/172.16.0.0:cluster_interconnect
Step 4 : Verify the changes:
