root.sh fails for 11.2.0.1 Grid Infrastructure Standalone Install

JimboJan 15 2014 — edited Jan 16 2014

I am currently installing 11gR2 ( 11.2.0.1 ) Grid Infrastructure for a standalone environment on Linux 6.3.

My OUI successfully gets to the point where I am asked to execute the root script in my GRID_HOME

/home/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/grid/root.sh

fails with

CRS-4124: Oracle High Availability Services startup failed.

CRS-4000: Command Start failed, or completed with errors.

ohasd failed to start: Inappropriate ioctl for device

ohasd failed to start: Inappropriate ioctl for device at /home/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/grid/crs/install/roothas.pl line 296.

the log file

/home/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/grid/cfgtoollogs/crsconfig/roothas.log

shows

2014-01-14 16:25:07: ohasd failed to start: Inappropriate ioctl for device

per note 1157905.1

ps –ef | grep init

shows init.ohasd is not running so I check /etc/initab

Successfully contains

h1:35:respawn:/etc/init.d/init.ohasd run >/dev/null 2>&1 </dev/null

Check /var/log/messages

Jan 14 17:13:58 lab3 init: /etc/init.conf: Unable to load configuration: No such file or directory

ps –ef | grep ohasd

grid1     6995     1  0 16:23 ?        00:00:00 /home/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/grid/bin/ohasd.bin reboot

check status from Grid Home

Per 1050908.1

as grid owner

$GRID_HOME/bin/crsctl stat res -t -init

CRS-4639: Could not contact Oracle High Availability Services

CRS-4000: Command Check failed, or completed with errors.

The OUI Installer then completes the final stages of install

Configure Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a Standalone Server                      Fails

Oracle Net Configuration Assistant                                                         Succeeds

Automatic Storage Management Configuration Assistant                          Fails

So as per above, there seem to be quite a number of Oracle notes on the ioctl error but none seem to have the solution in my case

any help greatly appreciated,

Jim
