1. Shut down the cluster.

   For instructions for performing this task, see How to Shut Down a Cluster in Administering an Oracle Solaris Cluster 4.4 Configuration.

2. Confirm that the cluster shuts down correctly.
3. Boot the cluster.

   For instructions for performing this task, see How to Boot a Cluster in Administering an Oracle Solaris Cluster 4.4 Configuration.

   Note -  The bringing online of all Support for Oracle RAC resource groups might require several minutes to complete. If you perform this step before the resource groups are enabled on all nodes, the status on some nodes might be offline. In this situation, repeat this step until the status of all Oracle RAC resource groups is online on all nodes.
