<tt>Ok.. I thought it wasn't a cold install, that's why I asked you to
check the /etc/oracle/ocr.loc file. Since it is a cold install, the
file should not be there.<br>
<br>
Here is how it should work.<br>
<br>
During install, the Oracle Installer will look for the file
/etc/oracle/ocr.loc. If it does exist, then it will use it. If it
doesn't, you will ask you to inform the location of the OCR and VOTING
files during the installation. In this case, if you choose to create
the files at /ocfs2 (/dev/sdb1), it will look for the files at the same
location on the remote node. If it can't get the results, it will
return the error you are getting.<br>
<br>
One thing that must be working in order for it to work, is ssh. You
should be able to ssh to your node and to the remote node without
password. If it prompts you for password or it is unable to connect to
the remote node, then it may also return the error. <br>
<br>
Can you send the output of "mount -t ocfs2" from both nodes?<br>

I'm confused about '/etc/oracle/ocr.loc' . This is a cold install . There are no oracle files on the system .

<pre wrap=""><!---->Can you check if you have the file /etc/oracle/ocr.loc? If so, check if
the parameter ocrconfig_loc points to the correct mountpoint.
Did you test the file creation on the mountpoint of /dev/sdb1?

<pre wrap="">Did you format and mount the OCFS2 partitions?
What you have is the Cluster Service up (o2cb) only, but no volumes
mounted (Checking heartbeat: Not active ).
OUI is only detecting a local FS where Oracle will create the OCR/VOTING
files.
Make sure to mount the filesystem on all nodes and test to see if they
are consistently mounted at the same mountpoints by creating a file
under the mountpoint and verifying from the other nodes.
For example:
On Node1:
# mount -t ocfs2 /dev/sdxx /ocfs2
# touch /ocfs2/Node1
On Node2:
# mount -t ocfs2 /dev/sdxx /ocfs2
# ls -la /ocfs2 << THIS SHOULD SHOW THE "Node1" FILE. IF
NOT, CHECK YOUR CONFIGURATION.

Am I waisting my time trying to get the 10G Clusterware installer to use OCFS2 volumes for the voting and OCR disks ?
The ocfs2 setup seems happy on both nodes but the 10G installer says
the location entered for the oracle cluster registry (OCR) is not shared across all the nodes in the cluster
Do the volumes need to mounted ? I did with no change .
