Node fails to join the SF Oracle RAC cluster if the file system containing Oracle Clusterware is not mounted (2611055)
The sequence number of the startup script for Oracle High Availability Services daemon (ohasd) is lower than some of the SF Oracle RAC components such as VXFEN and VCS. During system startup, if the file system containing Oracle Clusterware does not get mounted before the ohasd startup script is executed, the script continuously waits for the file system to become available. As a result, the other scripts (including those of SF Oracle RAC components) are not executed and the node being started does not join the SF Oracle RAC cluster.
Workaround: If the rebooted node does not join the SF Oracle RAC cluster, the cluster can be started manually using the following command:
\# installer -start node1 node2
