One node of the cluster cannot start

3037463Sep 29 2015 — edited Sep 30 2015

Hallo All,

i hope you can help me. We have a 2 node rac. the first node cannot be started up because of:

[cssd(16558)]CRS-1714:Unable to discover any voting files, retrying discovery in 15 seconds; Details at (:CSSNM00070:) in /pkg/app/11.2.0/grid/log/defr2elvhms01/cssd/ocssd.log

2015-09-28 14:45:19.038:

2015-09-28 14:45:34.059:

the crs finds the OCR disks, it is visible it the logfile:

2015-09-28 14:46:49.120: [   SKGFD][2107098880]Lib :ASM:/opt/oracle/extapi/64/asm/orcl/1/libasm.so: closing handle 0x7fec68140800 for disk :ORCL:REDO:

The failing node can be started up in exclusive mode and there I am able to connect to asm but of course without disks. When I am trying to mount diskgroups I get the followings:

SQL> alter diskgroup data mount;

alter diskgroup data mount

*

ERROR at line 1:

ORA-15032: not all alterations performed

ORA-15017: diskgroup "DATA" cannot be mounted

ORA-15063: ASM discovered an insufficient number of disks for diskgroup "DATA"

ORA-15085: ASM disk "" has inconsistent sector size.


we seem to experiencing similar issue as written:

After SAN Firmware Upgrade, ASM Diskgroups ( Using ASMLIB) Cannot Be Mounted Due To ORA-15085: ASM disk "" has inconsistent sector size. (Doc ID 1500460.1)


kernel cannot be updated so setting the ORACLEASM_USE_LOGICAL_BLOCK_SIZE is not possible.

What we don't understand why the failing node has different physical / logical block size. Why the oracle linux on the failing node do recognise different value? If it was the same, probably the cluster could start up:
