Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" I agree but you'd think oracle user would be able to have access to them. Its easier to back things up as oracle then to go thru the hassle of trying to do it as root.

Re: oracle 11.2 crs permission issue

Seems like this is the way it is supposed to work... clusterware files really shouldn't be accessible by non-root users for security reasons. I don't know of a way to go around this and get access from a non-root user account. I doubt it exists... if it did then it would be a security issue and would probably be removed in the next CPU/PSU.
