11gCRS Installation Error on RHEL 5 with KFOD.

User304942Jul 22 2011 — edited Aug 2 2011
Hello community,

I am installing 11.2.0.1 CRS on Linux 2.6.18-194.3.1.el5. It is 3 Node Installation and all the Cluster verification were passed.

oracle:x@lelracsdw1a /oracle/admin > rpm -qa | grep asm
oracleasmlib-2.0.4-1.el5
oracleasm-support-2.1.4-1.el5
oracleasm-2.6.18-194.3.1.el5-2.0.5-1.el5
oracle:x@lelracsdw1a /oracle/admin > uname -a
Linux lelracsdw1a 2.6.18-194.3.1.el5 #1 SMP Sun May 2 04:17:42 EDT 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

When I start the OUI for Installation, It gets stuck at point where KFOD tries to read the disk group I have created. It doesnt error out but gets stuck at the point.

I have tried to check all the kernel parameters and the pre requisites but everything seems good.

Here is the part of logfile where it errrored out during the Installation

I know about kfod that its an undocumented tool for asm configuration. But I am not sure why KFOD is unable to read the disks.
Any help on this is much appreciated.

Thanks,
Vivek
