I have followed all the steps from -
http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/11g/OracleDB11gR2RACInstallationOnOEL5UsingVMwareServer2.php

Here my redhat VM on two different ESX server but both are in same subnet and i am able to ping both VM's from both VM's.

Everything going fine but when i ran the root.sh on rac2 machine then root.sh show some failed messages i.e.

====================================================
Preparing packages for installation...
cvuqdisk-1.0.7-1
Configure Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a Cluster ... failed
=====================================================

Root.sh also not identified the rac1 node on rac2 machine

i have executed the below command

./olsnodes
rac1

But it shows the only one node instead of two node.

Please check the attached output of root.sh which was ran on rac2 vm

Please let me know if i have miss anything.

Thanks,
-Amit

Quoting the source writeup
Quote:
The Single Client Access Name (SCAN) should really be defined in the DNS or GNS and round-robin between one of 3 addresses, which are on the same subnet as the public and virtual IPs. In this article I've defined it as a single IP address in the "/etc/hosts" file, which is wrong and will cause the cluster verification to fail, but it allows me to complete the install without the presence of a DNS.

Hope you did the same.

On rac2 the root.sh script not able to find the rac1 but as per the above article root.sh done the following stuff on node2 i.e. rac2

CRS-4123: Oracle High Availability Services has been started.
ohasd is starting
CRS-4402: The CSS daemon was started in exclusive mode but found an active CSS daemon on node rac1, number 1, and is terminating

but in my case it show's the same logs for node2 as shown in node1.

Please let me know if i miss anything.

Is there any way to fix the node without starting everything from scratch like installing the grid infra. again ?

Thanks,

I have no idea. I would first investigate the root issue before starting over.
In your $ORACLE_HOME/grid/../.. there should be a log file for grid on node 2.
See if there is anything that is useful there.
If there was a failure in a particular step, it should be logged there.
