Hi Everyone,

Trying to do fresh install of RAC on RHEL 4 update 4 . cluvfy went through fine with no issues. root.sh is failing with "Failed to upgrade Oracle CLuster Registry Configuration". Installation failed before and i went through cleanup as per doc 239998.1. Any help is appreciated. There are tons of hits on this error message, but couldn't find a solution

using raw devices for ocr and Voting disk.

Following are the permissions on ocr and voting
[root@dcap-dcb-oradb04 product]# ls -l /dev/raw/raw1
crw-r--r-- 1 oracle oinstall 162, 1 Mar 14 12:23 /dev/raw/raw1
[root@dcap-dcb-oradb04 product]# ls -l /dev/raw/raw2
crw-r----- 1 root oinstall 162, 2 Mar 14 12:23 /dev/raw/raw2
[root@dcap-dcb-oradb04 product]#

Some log info.
this is from alert file:
