cmrunpkg hangs on "starting" status

[Julian Kania]

Hello!

I'm trying to start my ServiceGuard cluster.
I called
cmrunpkg CRS
and cmviewcl shows:
PACKAGE STATUS STATE
CRS starting starting

The status "starting" is present for about hour, it usualy took a minute to start.

How can i force whole cluster to go down, and restart it again?

regards, Julian

The status "starting" is present for about hour, it usually took a minute to start.

There should be some problem, see the below logs for more detail.

/var/adm/syslog/syslog.log
/etc/cmcluster/PKG_NAME/PKG_NAME.ctrl.log

How can i force whole cluster to go down, and restart it again?

#cmhaltcl -v -f
#cmruncl -v

Restarting went well, but the status is still the same:

Oracle Database 10g CRS Release 10.2.0.1.0 Production Copyright 1996, 2005 Oracle. All rights reserved.
2008-09-12 06:05:43.216: [ CSSCLNT][1]clsssInitNative: connect failed, rc 9


any ideas?

1. delete the files from
/tmp/.oracle/* & /var/tmp/.oracle/* . and start the package.
or
2. Check the CRS_HOME & ORACLE_HOME folder permission.

Hi Julian
This error on metalink is reported with Doc ID: 429214.1
The symptom is On a Non - RAC ASM instance, after installing new patchset on existing installation or reinstalling the software with new user, CSS service does not start
and the first solution is to remove the following IPC socket files
# rm -f /usr/tmp/.oracle/*
# rm -f /tmp/.oracle/*
# rm -f /var/tmp/.oracle/*
Take a lot of this doc and perhaps call you dba.

Hope it helps

Thank you Smatador for the info about metalink doc, the problem indeed was connected with Oracle Database upgrade attempt.

Oracle didn't mentioned that HPUX IA64 is also vulnerable, as this my architecture.

Hi,

1. login as root and create ssh key.

ssh-keygen -t rsa
ssh-keygen -t dsa

This is solved our issue.
