Hi,

I wonder if anyone can help or assist me.

Installing the Grid install on AIX (ASMLib not required) and I can see the disks on both nodes (see below)

Code:
bvecrcdrprep: >pwd
/dev
bvecrcdrprep: >ls -ltr ORA_OCR*
crw-rw----    1 oracle   dba          17,  1 14 Aug 11:54 ORA_OCR1
crw-rw----    1 oracle   dba          17, 19 14 Aug 12:17 ORA_OCR2
bvecrcdrprep: >ls -ltr ORA_VOT*
crw-rw----    1 oracle   dba          17,  2 14 Aug 11:55 ORA_VOT1
crw-rw----    1 oracle   dba          17, 20 14 Aug 12:18 ORA_VOT2

rvecrcdrprep: >pwd
/dev
rvecrcdrprep: >ls -ltr ORA_OCR*
crw-rw----    1 oracle   dba          17, 19 14 Aug 11:56 ORA_OCR1
crw-rw----    1 oracle   dba          17,  1 14 Aug 12:17 ORA_OCR2
rvecrcdrprep: >ls -ltr ORA_VOT*
crw-rw----    1 oracle   dba          17, 20 14 Aug 11:56 ORA_VOT1
crw-rw----    1 oracle   dba          17,  2 14 Aug 12:17 ORA_VOT2
rvecrcdrprep: >
However my install will fail at the point of "ASM Device Checks" with an PRVF-5150 error which indicates the path is not valid.
I then ran the fixup script in order to resolve the issue, it runs fine but does not seem to fix the problem.
I am only setting up the OCR & Voting disks to begin with and will then add the data disks after, prior to the RAC install

Code:
PRVF-5150: Path /dev/ORA_OCR1 is not a valid path on all nodes
PRVF-5150: Path /dev/ORA_OCR2 is not a valid path on all nodes
PRVF-5150: Path /dev/ORA_VOT1 is not a valid path on all nodes
PRVF-5150: Path /dev/ORA_VOT2 is not a valid path on all nodes
Half of the docs online suggest this is a bug in 11.2.0.2 and the other half say to just ignore. But if I ignore and continue the install fails
Do you have any ideas of this problem or a workable solution? Do I need to execute a command which tells the installer that these disks
are available (like discover on Linux)?

Many thanks
