User equivalence check failed (RAC setup)

danield_2Oct 6 2005 — edited May 24 2011
Hello All,

I am trying to set up user equivalence between 2 nodes, following instructions from "Oracle® Database Oracle Clusterware and Oracle Real Application Clusters Installation Guide 10g Release 2 (10.2) for Solaris Operating System (SPARC 64-Bit)"
I have created user accounts on both nodes, .ssh folder with appropriate permissions, dsa and rsa keys on both nodes, copied them to authorized_keys on halfway, and scp authorozed_keys to wabasca. Now I am able to do 'ssh wabasca date' and 'ssh halfway date' on each node without being asked for password or passphrase:
$ whoami
ora10gr2
$ hostname
halfway
$ ssh halfway date
Thu Oct  6 16:51:37 MDT 2005
$ ssh wapiti date
Thu Oct  6 16:51:11 MDT 2005
$
$ whoami
ora10gr2
$ hostname
wapiti
$ ssh halfway date
Thu Oct  6 16:52:04 MDT 2005
$ ssh wapiti date
Thu Oct  6 16:51:38 MDT 2005
$
Yet, the CVU verification of user equivalence fails:
$ whoami
ora10gr2
$ hostname
halfway
$ /Oracle10/cvu/bin/cluvfy comp admprv -n halfway,wapiti -o user_equiv -sshonly -verbose

Verifying administrative privileges

Checking user equivalence...

Check: User equivalence for user "ora10gr2"
  Node Name                             Comment
  ------------------------------------  ------------------------
  wapiti                                failed
  halfway                               failed
Result: User equivalence check failed for user "ora10gr2".

Verification of administrative privileges was unsuccessful on all the nodes.

If I can 'ssh <nodename> date' sucessfully what may cause the CVU check of user equivalence to fail? (I see that timing is off between these 2 machines...)

Thank you very much for your time.
