Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Interesting Issue with RAC - Any Advice Appreciated
Thanks for the reply Bryan. I've tried a whole bunch of times,taking the node down using init 0, taking the node down using reboot, and turning off the power. Interestingly enough, this is the 'primary' node, the one from which I performed the install. The other node works perfectly. I've tried several different approaches on the 'faulty' node, including leaving the .loc_<node> and <node>.pid files in $ORA_CRS_HOME/crs/init and removing them after running a srvctl stop nodeapps -n rhlvoo4 command. Same results. Haven't tried to disable then reenable it though. Let you know how that goes.
I forgot to metion that I can bring up the node manually using either crs_ or srvctl commands, it just won't start automatically. I have altered the cluster registry to enable the ons start automatically using crs_stat -p and crs_register to make the modification to auto_start for this service (which gets set to 0 when the 10.1.0.4 patch is applied). That seems to have worked since the ons is targeted online.

How many times did you reboot the "crashed" server? Sometimes it takes a several tries to get RAC fully back up.
You might also want to try to disable crsd and reboot. Then enable crsd and reboot again. That seems to fix a lot of problems.
I have not worked with RAC on RHEL V4, so I'm not exactly sure what the problem is.
Let me know if any of this helps.

Subject: Interesting Issue with RAC - Any Advice Appreciated
I have an Oracle RAC installed on a pair of Dell PE6850s w/2 processors and 8GB of RAM. Running RHEL 4.0 QU1 and Oracle 10.1.0.4. Using ASM on direct attached CX300 with qLogic HBAs.
Thought everything was just fine - until I was testing the RAC by crashing the nodes. If I crash a node, I see the VIP migrate to the survivor. When I bring up the crashed box, CRSD starts and the VIP migrates back to it's 'home' box, but the other nodeapps, gsd and ons, don't start, and neither does the listener nor the instance. The crsd goes bye-bye (actually 'defunct').
Here's what I see in crs_stat -t:
[oracle_at_rhlv005 ~]$ crs_stat -t
Name Type Target State Host
ora....04.lsnr application ONLINE OFFLINE ora....004.gsd application ONLINE OFFLINE ora....004.ons application ONLINE OFFLINE ora....004.vip application ONLINE ONLINErhlv004
The crs log is spectacularly informative:

Any ideas?
