clscfg: EXISTING configuration version 3 detected - unexpected!
589373Jul 23 2007 — edited Aug 2 2007I was trying to install Oracle 10g R2 RAC on SuSE10.1 x64 systems.
But when the "root.sh" scripts was running, I got the following display and I did not see the OCR disks were formatted as I saw it when the installation was successful on other systems before.
Here are the part of the installation display:

PRKH-1010 : Unable to communicate with CRS services.
[Communications Error(Native: prsr_initCLSS:[3])]
It is funny that it says "clscfg: EXISTING configuration version 3 detected" because I was installing 2 new nodes which did have any previous new oracle osftware installed (frsh systems they are, everything.) I am NOT adding a new node to an existing RAC.
How could it find that CSS is "active" on node 2 while "inactive" in node1???
Anyone can help me?
thanks alot!
