Hi gurus.

I am configuring RAC, while configuring cluster i am facing this errors.
i have followed this steps.

[root@rac5 ~]# /etc/init.d/o2cb status
Module "configfs": Loaded
Filesystem "configfs": Mounted
Module "ocfs2_nodemanager": Not loaded
Module "ocfs2_dlm": Not loaded
Module "ocfs2_dlmfs": Not loaded
Filesystem "ocfs2_dlmfs": Not mounted
[root@rac5 ~]# /etc/init.d/o2cb start
[root@rac5 ~]# ocfs2console

here when i try to add nodes i am facing this error.

Could not start cluster stack. This must be resolved before any OCFS2 filesystem can be mounted.

i have installed below rpms and started ocfs2console.

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1144294 Jan 23 23:28 ocfs2-tools-1.2.7-1.el5.i386.rpm
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 145833 Jan 23 23:28 ocfs2-tools-debuginfo-1.2.7-1.el5.i386.rpm
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 169193 Jan 23 23:28 ocfs2console-1.2.7-1.el5.i386.rpm
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 278225 Jan 23 23:28 ocfs2-2.6.18-128.1.1.el5-1.2.9-1.el5.i686.rpm
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 83496 Jan 24 00:10 ocfs2-tools-devel-1.2.7-1.el5.i386.rpm

Welcome to the forum. Please read our OraFAQ Forum Guide and How to use [code] tags and make your code easier to read

I cannot assist with your qustion, because I don't use OCFS any more. However, one bit of general advice: if this is a new installation, I would think you should use ASM for your shared database storage, and ACFS for clustered file systems. That is what I always do. OCFS2 does still exist, and is still supported, but really I see no purpose in it with the current release of clusterware.
Your Linux is also very old, you may find that release 5.8 makes Oracle installations easier and more reliable.

Hi guru.
I am following below link document to configure rac.
//kamranagayev.com/2011/04/05/step-by-step-installing-oracle-10g-rac-on-vmware/


As per this document i have executed all the steps. I have configured ASM but i have stuck while adding nodes to the cluster using ocfs2console. this ocfs2console works but wont allow to add nodes it throws below errror message.

Could not start cluster stack. This must be resolved before any OCFS2 filesystem can be mounted.

please give me a solution.

Kind regard's

Those instructions are for installing an antiquated release of the product. Forget it. Look for instructions for installing 11.2, it is very different.

Please observe that this thread is over 3 years & Ramakrishna has not ever returned since.
So you should not expect any response from Ramakrishna.

We only know what you post which is next to nothing.

We do not know OS name or version.


Please read and follow the forum guidelines, to enable us to help you:

How to use {code} tags and make your code easier to read

post results from OS command below

find / -name o2cb.ctl 2>/dev/null

Why did you pick OCF2 instead of ASM?

I can only repeat what I told the OP: do not use OCFS2. It was effectively obsoleted in release 10.x by ASM, and was re-obsoleted in release 11.2.x by ACFS.

Note that ACFS is now the default storage for Oracle Data Appliance. If it is good enough for ODA, it is good enough for you. I recorded a couple of tutorials here,
