Hi,
 
Has anyone on this list had experience removing a node from an Oracle RAC 
cluster when that node is down/gone?  In other words, does the node you are 
trying to remove have to be up for you to remove it?
 
Background: 
We have a 6 node RAC cluster that we're having trouble removing nodes from and 
need some help.  Nodes 1,2,5,6 are all still in the cluster and nodes 3,4 are 
partially in.  We tried removing nodes 3,4 and were not able to  due to issues 
with dbca hanging and other issues that followed.  Any suggestions would be 
appreciated.
 
We are on Oracle 10.2.3.0 w/ ASM on Solaris 10.
 
Thanks,
Abdul
