Failed to initialize GPnP

--- Solution ---

Either unset ORA_NLS10 or set it to correct location before starting OUI:

unset ORA_NLS10

OR

export ORA_NLS10=$GRID_HOME/nls/data

Refer to Note 1050472.1 for more details.

--- Solution ---

Request/apply patch 20598625 if there's an impact.

Issue#3 - Incorrect Network Setting in OCR

--- Symptoms ---

11gR2 runInstaller error:

OUI reports INS-20802 as CVU post installation check fails

installation log or CVU error

Result: User equivalence check passed for user "grid"

ERROR:
Unable to obtain network interface list from Oracle Clusterware PRCT-1011 : Failed to run "oifcfg". Detailed error: null
Verification cannot proceed

oifcfg getif output

oifcfg getif
PROC-4: The cluster registry key to be operated on does not exist.
PRIF-11: cluster registry error

--- Solution ---

In this example, eth1 is the private network and eth3 is the public network.

2.1. As root, execute the following to generate an ocr dump file:

# $GRID_HOME/bin/ocrdump /tmp/dump.ocr1

2.2. As root, find out all network information in the OCR:

# grep 'css.interfaces' /tmp/dump.ocr1 | awk -F \] '{print $1}' | awk -F \. '{print $5}' | sort -u
eth1
eth3

2.3. As grid user, find out the network information at OS level

$ $GRID_HOME/bin/oifcfg iflist -p -n
..
eth1 PRIVATE 255.255.255.128
eth1 UNKNOWN 255.255.192.0
..
eth3 PRIVATE 255.255.255.128

Note: HAIP (169.254.x.x) should be ignored in the output

2.4. As root, remove network info from OCR:

# $GRID_HOME/bin/oifcfg delif -global eth1 -force
# $GRID_HOME/bin/oifcfg delif -global eth3 -force

If failure PRIF-31 encountered, ignord it

2.5. As grid user, set network info in OCR:

$ $GRID_HOME/bin/oifcfg setif -global eth1/:cluster_interconnect
$ $GRID_HOME/bin/oifcfg setif -global eth3/:public

2.6. As grid user, confirm the change:

$ $GRID_HOME/bin/oifcfg getif
eth1 global cluster_interconnect
eth3 global public
