Re: Help: Why 9i RAC always reboot?

It appears you have an unsupported configuration as 9i for Linux is only certified for SuSe7.1, Kernel 2.4.4 and the operating system library GNU Lib C 2.2 only. It is, therefore, not surprising that some of the more advanced features of 9i fail to operate as expected, one of those being RAC.

I notice you have been having this problem for some time, and even had Howard responding to you in a similar vein. I doubt that you'll find a resolution to your difficulties, especially since you have chosen to install 9i on a platform that is, as of now, unsupported by Oracle. Different vendors have different kernels (obvious to most but necessary to state) and you've probably run into a situation where a call in SuSe7.1, Kernel 2.4.4 works properly but fails in other Linux kernels.

Another thought is that this could be an issue of available memory (although that, in my mind, is quite a reach); how much RAM do you have installed in your RedHat server? Possibly an increase of available resource in this area may resolve this issue, and I stress the word 'MAY'.

I would heed the notice by Oracle as to the usability of the port of 9i to Linux. It is specific to SuSe7.1, Kernel 2.4.4 with glibc 2.2. And, believe me, all Linux releases ARE NOT alike.
