Hi I am working on 10g RAC on AIX and having the strange problem. I applied Patchset 2 and now getting some problem in access crs On Node 1, it shows in crs_stat -t that all Resources gsd/ons/vip are up on all 5 modes while on all other nodes, it shows the process are running but crs_stat -t gives the following error CRS-0184: Cannot communicate with the CRS daemon. ps -ef|grep crs gives the output as root 565460 716832 0 14:12:33 - 0:22 /u01/app/crs/10.2/bin/crsd.bin reboot root 589936 1 0 14:12:46 - 0:00 /u01/app/crs/10.2/bin/racgmain ora.gkd122.vip rundetach ora.gkd122.vip 1 startorp gkd122 oracle 614456 860378 0 14:12:41 - 0:00 /u01/app/crs/10.2/bin/evmlogger.bin -o /u01/app/crs/10.2/evm/log/evmlogger.info -l /u01/app/crs/10.2/evm/log/evmlogger.log oracle 635124 426140 0 14:12:36 - 0:05 /u01/app/crs/10.2/bin/ocssd.bin oracle 675854 1 0 14:12:47 - 0:00 /u01/app/crs/10.2/opmn/bin/ons -d root 716832 1 0 14:12:31 - 0:00 /bin/sh /etc/init.crsd run oracle 733338 684146 0 14:12:34 - 0:00 /bin/sh -c cd /u01/app/crs/10.2/log/gkd122/cssd/oclsomon; ulimit -c unlimited; /u01/app/crs/10.2/bin/oclsomon || exit $? oracle 737488 675854 0 14:12:47 - 0:00 /u01/app/crs/10.2/opmn/bin/ons -d root 843828 667806 0 14:12:34 - 0:00 /u01/app/crs/10.2/bin/oprocd.bin run -t 1000 -m 500 -f oracle 860378 761930 0 14:12:33 - 0:00 /u01/app/crs/10.2/bin/evmd.bin oracle 864454 733338 0 14:12:34 - 0:01 /u01/app/crs/10.2/bin/oclsomon.bin I tried to stop crsctl check crs $crsctl check crs CSS appears healthy Try againEVM appears healthy I tried to stop crs using crsctl stop crs or /etc/init.crs stop as root but the processes are still running.
