Hi everyone

First of all I request you guys to PLEASE DO HELP ME RESOLVE THIS ISSUE - Thanks!!

I am trying to install Oracle Grid Infrastructure 11gR2 11.0.2.0.3 on Oracle Solaris 11.11 x86 64bit installed using Live Media on Oracle VirtualBox 4.2.6.

After setting up the cluster nodes I ran the cluster verification utility which came out with 100% success.

However during the execution of root.sh I got the following error:

/u01/app/11.2.0/grid/root.sh
--------------------------------------------------

I re-ran this command to see the actual errors

I ran the following commands to see the SAN and SCAN-Listners status

srvctl status scan
--------------------------------
SCAN VIP scan1 is enabled
SCAN VIP scan1 is not running
SCAN VIP scan2 is enabled
SCAN VIP scan2 is not running
SCAN VIP scan3 is enabled
SCAN VIP scan3 is not running

srvctl status scan_listener
--------------------------------------------
SCAN Listener LISTENER_SCAN1 is enabled
SCAN listener LISTENER_SCAN1 is not running
SCAN Listener LISTENER_SCAN2 is enabled
SCAN listener LISTENER_SCAN2 is not running
SCAN Listener LISTENER_SCAN3 is enabled
SCAN listener LISTENER_SCAN3 is not running

srvctl config scan_listener
---------------------------------------------
SCAN Listener LISTENER_SCAN1 exists. Port: TCP:1521
SCAN Listener LISTENER_SCAN2 exists. Port: TCP:1521
SCAN Listener LISTENER_SCAN3 exists. Port: TCP:1521


Here are the contents of my /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf files

cat /etc/hosts

Here are the network details

lo0/v6 static ok ::1/128
net0/v6 addrconf ok fe80::a00:27ff:fe5f:f484/10


I did the nslookup on my SCAN name

nslookup sol-scan
----------------------------------
Name: sol-scan.localdomain
Address: 192.168.56.202
Name: sol-scan.localdomain
Address: 192.168.56.203
Name: sol-scan.localdomain
Address: 192.168.56.201

I ran the following commands to see if the installation process is reading my SCAN configuration properly

srvctl stop scan_listener
srvctl stop scan

srvctl config scan
-----------------------------
SCAN name: sol-scan, Network: 1/192.168.56.0/255.255.255.0/net1
SCAN VIP name: scan1, IP: /sol-scan/192.168.56.203
SCAN VIP name: scan2, IP: /sol-scan/192.168.56.201
SCAN VIP name: scan3, IP: /sol-scan/192.168.56.202

So it is reading the SCAN information well therefore there is no problem there

I tried to start the SCAN Listeners again and ended up with the same errors

srvctl start scan_listener
------------------------------------------

If it helps, I am using the default automatic network management of Solaris 11.11 however I changed the IP addresses of net1 and net2 manually to meet my network
configuration requirements for the clusterware.

I followed every step of prerequisites for installation on solaris 11.

After verifying everything that I could have as detailed above I am now clueless as to where things are going wrong

Could it be the automatic network management of Solaris 11.11 that is not allowing creation of VIP SCAN IPs ???

Once again I REQUEST YOU GUYS TO PLEASE DO HELP ME FIX THIS PROBLEM.

Terry.
