i am trying to install 2 node RAC on Oracle VMs. Before the installation during the -preinst check there were few issues which were resolved (ex user equivalence). After that during the installation process of the Grid it failed at step "Configure Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a cluster". After it failed at this step, subsequent steps too failed which I asked OUI to ignore and then I ran both the post installation scripts. And then ran post crsinst which failed. Pasting below the output of the root.sh script, post crsinst and other checks.

I have some confusions regarding to 11gR2 RAC installation:
- Is Grid Infrastructure only the solution to install Clusterware Application 11gR2? My requirement is to install only the Cluster ware Software for 11gR2 (For 11gR1 we have "linux.x64_11gR1_clusterware.zip") using ocfs2 file system, Archive Mode not enabled.
I am in process of installing Oracle 11g R2 Grid Infrastructure on 2-node virtual RAC. All went very well until the Grid Installation stuck on 65%. It is saying copying file on remote node ('Copying Oracle Home '/u01/app/11.2.0/grid' to remote nodes 'cxm-vl-rman02'). From the logs it is difficult to figure out where the bottlenecks lies.
I tried to install 11gR2 grid infrastructure for 2 nodes RAC using VMWare as per the instructions provided in the below link.
[URL]
Until 65% installation went fine without any issues but after reaching this step "updating '/u01/app/11.2.0/grid/install/cluster.ini",it starts to hung. In the installation log file, I found these details.
I am trying for 11gR2 3 node RAC ASM on windows 2003-64-bit. I am using one SCAN ip ,placed in /etc/hosts file.I am not using DNS/GNS. Same thing done(/etc/hosts) on other nodes also.
I have run the cluvfy.bat prior to grid software install and passed very well. When i tried to install Grid Software,at prerequisites i got error as "node connectivity".
Even i ignored this error and run the finish.After moving grid software to remote nodes ,it throws error as " [INS-20802] Grid Infrastructure Configuration failed ".
It specified one log,which i am attaching here. In network side ,the ping is ok to all the nodes.
Here i am attaching the error screen shots and error log file.
I have raised SR with Oracle ,but not able to identify the root cause of this problem.I will post the solution once i got from oracle.
I'm trying to install Grid Infrastructure for Oracle RAC 11g. I followed each step of pre installation tasks, but when I run run Installer it blocks without any error message.

I got huge problem trying to install grid infrastructure and oracle db. Separately oracle db works fine and installation is going without any problems as for grid not so much.
i got vmware host 4.1 with several vm's on top. One of them i openfiler which gives 2 luns for installation. Two other vm's are host of windows 2008r2(comes only 64bits i know that many of you know but just to be clear). Those two windows should be connected in oracle cluster and should have one oracle db afterwards. I have already AD domain, free disks and all required staff arranged and prepared.
I wont bodder you ppl about previous problems but current one is that i have no clue what's going wrong. I got two logs file which i paste below but there's no error message just some warning which isn't described even properly as for me.

I'm installing Oracle Grid 11gr2 on windows 2003 server. I installed successfully without domain controller. But when i try to install with Active Domain controller i faced following error
i try to install oracle grid infrastructure 11r2 on cent OS 4.8 on vmware workstation 8.0.2..ASM disk is not showing ,i had also change disk discovery path to 'ORCL:*'i had already configure ASM disk using /etc/init.d/oracleasm createdisk...successfully..
We have to configure Dataguard for our 24x7 critical banking 2 Node RAC database(10.2.0.4). Before proceeding with the configuration we have to make sure what steps we should follow to have minimum or no downtime.
1) Document covering DG setup in RAC environment. 2) We have to perform switchover as well so need its steps too. Either the normal switchover steps would be used or have to stop/start rac services as well.
We have a two node 11.2.0.3 Grid Infra cluster running on SLES11 Linux. Everything is ok with the SCAN and standard listeners.
However we have a listener running on each node which is used by Oracle Gateway. These listeners were created manually using info provided by Oracle (i.e. definition copied to $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/listener.ora and started using lsnrctl). This all works.
These listeners are currently not managed by Grid Infra. We would like them to be.
I thought this was easy enough using srvctl to register them with Grid Infra using...
These commands worked but did give a warning stating that the -n flag is deprecated and will be ignored.
This has left us with the following listener config....
grid@MYNODE1:~> srvctl status listener -n mynode1 | grep mynode Listener LISTENER_MYNODE1_GW is enabled on node(s): mynode1 Listener LISTENER_MYNODE1_GW is not running on node(s): mynode1 Listener LISTENER_MYNODE2_GW is enabled on node(s): mynode1 Listener LISTENER_MYNODE2_GW is not running on node(s): mynode1
grid@MYNODE1:~> srvctl status listener -n mynode 2 | grep mynode Listener LISTENER_MYNODE1_GW is enabled on node(s): mynode2 Listener LISTENER_MYNODE1_GW is not running on node(s): mynode2 Listener LISTENER_MYNODE2_GW is enabled on node(s): mynode2 Listener LISTENER_MYNODE2_GW is not running on node(s): mynode2
You can see that Grid Infra knows about the listeners but they are available on both nodes. What we would like is a result like the following example....
grid@MYNODE1:~> srvctl status listener -n mynode1 | grep mynode Listener LISTENER_MYNODE1_GW is enabled on node(s): mynode1 Listener LISTENER_MYNODE1_GW is not running on node(s): mynode1
grid@MYNODE1:~> srvctl status listener -n mynode 2 | grep mynode Listener LISTENER_MYNODE2_GW is enabled on node(s): mynode2 Listener LISTENER_MYNODE2_GW is not running on node(s): mynode2
i.e one listener registered with just the node it is running on. This used to be possible with using the -n flag but no longer works.
I am preparing to install grid infrastructure 11.2.0.3 on AIX 6.2 USING AIX LPARS. I am getting the following errors in the output when runningn the following command...
I've noticed that the backup files produced by RMAN (Database is 11.2.0.2.0 Enterprise Edition) )on a RHEL5.5. server which is running ASM have group permissions assigned to ASMADMIN (so the file permissions are assigned to ORACLE:ASMADMIN) as opposed to OINSTALL or any other group.
While this is not an issue (it's not currently impacting us in any way) I'm curious as to how and why this happens. I suspect it is related to the fact that the oracle executable has these permissions also but I can't find any material to confirm my suspicion.
i have installed grid(crs+asm) on my two linux node(Enterprise linux 5) setup, using openfiler(SAN) , i have configure grid Home like ORACLE_ HOME=/ u01/ home/app/11.2.0/grid.
1) i don't get any instance specific asm parameter file like init+ASM1.ora instead of that i got ab_+ASM1.dat, hc_+ASM1.dat, init.ora, orapw+ASM four files, do i need to create ASM instance specific parameter manually to create diskgroup in the same location,
2) +DATA diskgroup has been created while grid installation, but when i try to create database, its giving me error diskgroup +DATA doesn't exit or not mount, but when i check it shows me mount like below $cd $ORACLE_HOME/dbs (here oracle home is grid home)$export ORACLE_SID=+ASM1$sqlplus / as sysdba>select name,state from v$asm_diskgroup; name state DATA Mounted even i cant able to dismount diskgroup DATA, it throws an error insufficient privilege.
3) After grid installation how can one create diskgroup i mean what needs to exported as ORACLE_SID like in 10g we have $export ORACLE_SID=+ASM1 then creat diskgroup.
We install grid using Grid Installer GUI. When doing a fresh installation of Grid Infrastructure 11.2.0.2 or 11.2.0.3 in a new server , I want to apply its latest PSU as well. When should I do this PSU patching ?
A. Should I apply the GI PSU after the entire Grid installation is successfully completed ?
or
B. Should I apply the GI PSU just before running the root.sh ?
i.e. when the installer prompts you to run root.sh (see the screenshot below)
[URL].........
At this stage(before running root.sh) the GI binaries are in place . So , I can apply the PSU on these binaries? Right?Should I follow option A or B above ?
I would like to use Oracle Grid Infrastructure to protect a single-instance database.
I found these docs:
[URL]
I was unable to find a similar document for GI 11.2 . Do you know if such a document exists?
At the moment I only know that the GI is free if used for an Oracle Product, but I am not shure whether it can be used to protext external applications or single-instance databases
Every time interconnect IP ping failed between RAC servers,CRS causing reboot to the server. As documented,it is of 3 sec. Can we alter this setting to increase the ping failed (private IP) by more than 3secs.
The installation of CRS is successfull & at end it ask to execute 2 scripts on both nodes i.e. orainstRoot.sh and root.sh
When the scripts are executed,the execution of orainstRoot.sh is successfull , but root.sh give following error:
[root@rac2host crs]# ./root.sh WARNING: directory '/home/oracle/product' is not owned by root WARNING: directory 'home/oracle' is not owned by root Checking to see if Oracle CRS stack is already configured /etc/oracle does not exist. Creating it now.

Is this concerned with permissions on OCR, Voting Disk.

I have a SAN Storage device of 8TB size . I am new to rac setup ,i dont know how to configure the SAN device for RAC SETUP on ASM..how to configure the SAN device for RAC setup on ASM
How many disks we need to have? which and sholud be on ASM ? how to impliment raid10 for database file disk and raid5 for arhcive log files
we don't have system or storage admin available..I have to create the development environment. I have 2 Dell 2950 Power Edgde Servers and 500 GB Buffalo NAS with Windows 2K3 X64 EE, tell me whether I can install Oracle RAC with this kit.
If yes , how can I configure shared storage and present it to OS so that both nodes can see it.
Share 11g Release 2 Grid infrastructure and RAC installation experience on Sun SPARC. Any documentation which provide complete information from server setup to database setup.
I am trying to install 2-node 11gR2 RAC on CentOS 5.6 using VMWare Fusion. I'm in the middle of Grid Infrastructure installation and while choosing the ASM diskgroups I don't see any candidate disks but when I click on all disks i can see them but can't select them.
I tried installing the grid before and ended up with and issue running the root.sh on all the nodes so had to deconfigure the grid binaries using the rootcrs.pl and then deinstalled the grid software using the ./desintall utility.
when tried installing again ...I ran the cluvfy utility ..it doesn't show any errors.
I'm doing some testes installing grid 11.2.0.3 32bits software on a OEL6 32bits (virtual box environment). The problem appeared where i ran root.sh script on node 1. The following error appeared to me:
