How did you setup the raw devices ? Did you bind raw partitions to your raw devices. I'm not an expert on linux but I see you're specifying /dev/sda2 - once bound shouldnt this be something like /dev/raw/raw1 ? I haven't had the installer complain about devices, but I have had clufvy fail on the shared storage check - but that was specific to the hp-ux platform.

Hey Guys,

I am doing a RAC install on an x86_64 RH4 box. We are using 10.2.0.1 and raw devices. The SAN is a MSA 1500. The issue that I am having is during the Cluster install. The installer is complaining that all nodes can't see the raw device location that I point it to for the OCR. I can dd from all nodes to the device. Has anyone seen this before? Does anyone know what test Oracle is using to determine connectivity? Are there any other options that I should try before creating an SR?

hostName = grid0.hprsn.com

oraclehome = /dev/sda2/

nodeList = grid0,grid1,grid2,grid3,

localNode = grid0.hprsn.com

INFO: Query Returned: OPENFAILONDEV
SEVERE: The location /dev/sda2/, entered for the Oracle Cluster Registry (OCR) is not shared across all the nodes in the cluster. Specify a shared raw partition or cluster file system file that is visible by the same name on all nodes of the cluster.

Thanks!

Todd
