Oracle service group faults on secondary site during failover in a disaster recovery scenario

Oracle service group fails to go online in the DR site when disaster strikes the primary site. This happens if the AutoFailover attribute on the Service Group is set to 1 and when the corresponding service group's FireDrill is online in the DR site. Firedrill Service group may remain ONLINE on the DR site.

Workaround: If the service group containing the Oracle (or any database) resource faults after attempting automatic DR failover while FireDrill is online in the DR site, manually offline the FireDrill Service Group. Subsequently, attempt the online of the Oracle Service Group in the DR site.
