Oracle clustwerware 10GR2 - SLES 9

I know it is probably not recommended -
But is it possible to install Oracle clusterware ( + patch
10.2.0.2 )
while an instance is running on 1 node ?

Everything will be setup in advance : 
Interconnect + Shared storage + host/accounts equivalencies
... + Full
backup ..

The goal is to try to decrease a system downtime when going
to RAC .. 
( And not having to rebuild a live instance/OS too .. )

Thanks in advance for sharing your ideas,

D>

Hi,
   
  You don't need to do so. Let say you have two nodes A (the
current database host) and B (a new node).
  If you plan to go RAC, you can keep your database in the
current node A.
  You make the installations and configuration on the
remaining node B. You can have a RAC database running with
just one instance on one node.
  When Cluster ware, Oracle RAC is installed and ready to
use, you move your database to B as a RAC database. Your
system is then available to your users and you can now add
the node A to your cluster, install Oracle RAC, and start an
instance of your database on it.

Yes, good idea, it is possible

(recently I was on a training at Oracle and this idea was
discussed there -
you can set up a grid with one node and later on add other
nodes )
