Mathias hit the nail on the head. Think about it this way: NFS errors and disconnects typically do not kill running programs, but cause them to hang. If the binaries for the clusterware are themselves on NFS, then clearly they are going to hang also.

Hi Amir,have seen similar behavior if logfiles of crs are also residing on a non available location.you should install at least the CRS home on local disks. if not possible point at leastthe logfiles (symlink CRS_HOME/log to local disks).HTH Mathias-----Original Message-----From: oracle-l-bounce_at_freelists.org [mailto:oracle-l-bounce_at_freelists.org] On Behalf Of Hameed, AmirSent: Tuesday, May 08, 2012 5:50 PMTo: tim_at_evdbt.com; oracle-l_at_freelists.orgSubject: RE: Oracle clusterware related questionThanks Tim,The cables remained unplugged for 30 minutes. I am using the default values for the "disktimeout" and "miscount" parameters and they are pasted below:crsctl get css disktimeoutCRS-4678: Successful get disktimeout 200 for Cluster Synchronization Services.crsctl get css misscountCRS-4678: Successful get misscount 30 for Cluster Synchronization Services.In my mind, the cluster should have evicted the node after 200 seconds (DTO).

Clearly, from your email, it lasted too long, but equally obviously, at some point the clusterwarereacted, and I'm wondering how long that wait might have been?Armed with that information about how long it took for the clusterware to react in mind, I'd suggest using the "crsctl query css" command as suggested here in the 11.2 docs online... /crsctl get css/ /Use the |crsctl get css| command to obtain the value of a specific Cluster Synchronization Services parameter./ // /Syntax/ /crsctl get cssparameter / /Usage Notes/ * /Cluster Synchronization Services parameters include:/ /clusterguid diagwait disktimeout misscount reboottime priority logfilesize / * /This command onl y affects the local server/ /Example/ /To display the value of the |disktimeout| parameter for CSS, use the following command:/ /$ crsctl get css disktimeout 200 /So, you may want to share what the values for "disktimeout" and "misscount" were, and whether those values corroborated at all with yourobservations?Hope this helps?--Tim Gormanconsultant -> Evergreen Database Technologies, Inc.postal => PO Box 352151, Westminster CO 80035website => http://www.EvDBT.com/email => Tim_at_EvDBT.commobile => +1-303-885-4526fax => +1-303-484-3608Lost Data? => http://www.ora600.be/ for info about DUDE...On 5/8/2012 8:41 AM, Hameed, Amir wrote:> Folks,> I have a three-node Oracle RAC running with Grid version 11.2.0.3.
