Cause
Resolution
Workaround
- Perform the following commands and look for running processes:
ps -ef | grep ora ps -ef | grep u01
- The second process status will likely return this entry from ps:
oracle 15170 1 0 May28 ? 00:02:24 /u01/app/11.2.0/grid/bin/ohasd.bin reboot
- The presence of this process is what is causing roothas.pl to fail. The installation is attempting to start this same process again and since it is already running, there is a conflict.
- Go to the grid install directory and de-configure these processes:
cd /u01/app/12.1.0/grid/crs/install ./roothas.pl -force –deconfig
