How to Recover From the Timing Out of the START Method

1. Become superuser.

2. On the node where the START method timed out, take offline the RAC framework resource group.

   To perform this operation, switch the primary nodes of the resource group to the other nodes where this group is online.

   # scswitch -z -g resource-group -h nodelist

   -g resource-group

   Specifies the name of the RAC framework resource group. If this resource group was created by using the scsetup utility, the name of the resource group is rac-framework-rg.

   -h nodelist

   Specifies a comma-separated list of other cluster nodes on which resource-group is online. Omit from this list the node where the START method timed out.

3. On all cluster nodes that can run Sun Cluster Support for Oracle Real Application Clusters, bring the RAC framework resource group online.

   # scswitch -Z -g resource-group

   -Z

   Enables the resource and monitor, moves the resource group to the MANAGED state, and brings the resource group online

   -g resource-group

   Specifies that the resource group that you brought offline in Step 2 is to be moved to the MANAGED state and brought online
