Hi
We have an issue with upgrading to 11.1.0.7 Current environment is 2 node rac on 10.2.0.4 and ASM running on clusterware 11.1.0.7

As part of upgrading the ASM and RDBMS to 11.1.0.7, I move the init.ora of ASM from 10.2.0.4 to 11.1.0.7 ORACLE HOME and try to bring up the asm instance and it fails with ORA-29702.
When you truss sqlplus session that is causing this issue you see this message in oclskd.log

2009-11-16 21:00:43.514: [ OCLSKD][1]clsskd_main: Kill daemon registered with CSS. Waiting for work.

Also in the trace directory I see a trc file generated for lmon which is like this.

• 2009-11-16 03:27:34.589 Global Enqueue Service Shutdown If I relink the oracle home libraries with rac off option then the asm instance comes up fine.

Also in the upgrade doc 429825.1, one of the pre upgrade steps is to set cluster_database to false for the rdbms instance. We did the same for ASM instance too. It seems to me that if cluster_database is set to false then you have to relink with rac off option (in the sense they are directly proportional). Is this the case?
My concern in bringing up the asm instance with off option is that , I can do the upgrade but when I try to rac enable after the upgrade, I will hit the same isssue because if you look at it- there is nothing that changes between now and the upgrade as far as the 11.1.0.7 oracle binaries are concerned.

I found one related link
http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=3715198 here but that is on linux and we are on solaris 64. From Metalink, I cannot view patch 7687540 for Solaris or Linux.

Any inputs ?

Thank you
kumar
