I downloaded the version from Technet, it's from December 2010 and the result is below. It cannot recognize the software version:

./cluvfy stage -post crsinst -n lpo-oracle-01,lpo-oracle-02

Software version is easy enough to detect:

 crsctl query crs softwareversion lpo-oracle-01 Oracle Clusterware version on node [lpo-oracle-01] is [11.2.0.2.0]

-bash-3.00$ crsctl check cluster -all

Basically, CVU failed to recognize fully configured and running grid version 11.2.0.2. It did recognize grid 11.2.0.1, which makes me believe that the CVU itself is out of date and should not be trusted.

Additional proof lies in the fact that it doesn't have problems with CRS 10.2.0.5:

crsctl query crs softwareversion
CRS software version on node [oracle41] is [10.2.0.5.0]

./cluvfy stage -post crsinst -n oracle41,oracle42
