Failure of the ucmmd Daemon to Start

The UCMM daemon, ucmmd, manages the reconfiguration of Sun Cluster Support for Oracle RAC. When a cluster is booted or rebooted, this daemon is started only after all components of Sun Cluster Support for Oracle RAC are validated. If the validation of a component on a node fails, the ucmmd fails to start on the node.

The most common causes of this problem are as follows:

• The ORCLudlm package that contains the Oracle UDLM is not installed.

• An error occurred during a previous reconfiguration of a component Sun Cluster Support for Oracle RAC.

• A step in a previous reconfiguration of Sun Cluster Support for Oracle RAC timed out, causing the node on which the timeout occurred to panic.
