I recently installed 2 x Compaq DL380G2, connecting to a shared SCSI array, with Redhat 4 EL Update 2 servers and the intention of getting Oracle RAC 10g R2 running.
After following the steps provided on dbasupport and "Installing Oracle RAC 10g Release 2 on Linux x86" - by John Smiley, I keep getting stuck when running the clusterware "oracle cluster verification utility".
I have run this command manually to find that it seems to have a problem with uppercase node names. Below I have pasted the output of the commands:
> ./cluvfy stage -post crsinst -n TGDB01,TGDB02 -verbose
and
> ./cluvfy stage -post crsinst -n tgdb01,tgdb02 -verbose
The command using uppercase node names fails while the lower case passes. Running the commands on either node produces the same result:
Liveness of all the daemons
Node Name CRS daemon CSS daemon EVM daemon
TGDB02 yes yes yes
TGDB01 yes yes yes
Checking CRS health...
Check: Health of CRS
Node Name CRS OK?
TGDB02 yes
TGDB01 yes
Result: CRS health check passed.
CRS integrity check passed.
Checking node application existence...
Checking existence of VIP node application
Node Name Required Status Comment
TGDB02 yes does not exist failed
TGDB01 yes does not exist failed
Result: Check failed.
Checking existence of ONS node application
Node Name Required Status Comment
------------ ------------------------ ------------------------ ----------
TGDB02 no does not exist ignored
TGDB01 no does not exist ignored
Result: Check ignored.
Checking existence of GSD node application
Node Name Required Status Comment
TGDB02 no does not exist ignored
TGDB01 no does not exist ignored
Result: Check ignored.
Post-check for cluster services setup was unsuccessful on all the nodes.
I resolved this issue by removing the cluser software and renaming everything to lowercase. Everything being the hostnames, the entries in the host files and the config in the cluster.conf file.
