ASM candidate disks not found on grid resintall [message #521226]

Hi all,
I am trying to install 2-node 11gR2 RAC on CentOS 5.6 using VMWare Fusion. I'm in the middle of Grid Infrastructure installation and while choosing the ASM diskgroups I don't see any candidate disks but when I click on all disks i can see them but can't select them.

I tried installing the grid before and ended up with and issue running the root.sh on all the nodes so had to deconfigure the grid binaries using the rootcrs.pl and then deinstalled the grid software using the ./desintall utility.

I'm not sure what has went wrong now when tried installing again ...I ran the cluvfy utility ..it doesn't show any errors.

Any advice on this is appreciated

Thanks

Please check the permission of the disks.. IT should be owned by the oracle/user who tries for the install

Use the oracleasm utility to delete and re-create the ASM discs. You first install will have marked them as already in use, so OUI wonlt let you select them.
