Database Software

Hello,

in our environment we have a 2 node cluster.
The 2 nodes and 2 SAN storages are in different rooms.
Voting files for Clusterware are in ASM.
Additionally we have a third voting disk on a NFS server (configured like in this descripton: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/products/clusterware/overview/grid-infra-thirdvoteonnfs-131158.pdf&ei=lzJXUPvJMsn-4QTJ8YDoDg&usg=AFQjCNGxaRWhwfTehOml-KgGGeRkl4yOGw)
The Quorum flag is on the disk that is on NFS.
The diskgroup is with normal redundancy.

Clusterware keeps running when one of the VDs gets lost (e.g. storage failure).
So far so good.

But when I have to restart Clusterware (e.g. reboot of a node) while the VD is still missing, then clusterware does not come up.

Did not find an indication if this whether is planned behaviour of Clusterware or maybe because I missed a detail.
From my point of view it should work to start Clusterware as long as the majority of VDs are available.

Thanks.
