VB 5.1.6 - Issues with Oracle 12.1.0.2 Grid Infrastructure installation at Solaris 11.3 Guests

[Chewyson]

Hi Guys,
Wish to check if anyone has successfully installed Oracle 12.1.0.2 Grid Infrastructure installation at Solaris 11.3 Guests?
Hit issues during the setup and can be re-produced.
Installation logs (rootcrs) and alert.log doesn't give me any clue what exactly causing the hang.
Anyone facing the same issue and have solution to it?
thanks


Node 01:
1. Install GRID ./runInstaller in Node 01
2. Run root.sh in Node 01
3. Node 1 appears to hang halfway through running root.sh.
--> Suspect is during "crsctl stop crs" which bring down resources. Suspect due to ASM disks issues. (presented as shared disks from host)

thanks

This question has nothing to do with the functioning of "VirtualBox on Windows Hosts". Moving it to "Solaris Guests".

@ Chewyson,

I just ran into the same issue. my screen stops here. then it freezes. In my First attempt i tried to reboot the box (node1) then it kept on rebooting by itself every 1 minute.
my VB version is 5.1.16

I was wondering if you were able to fix this issue.

Let me know

Thanks!

Chewyson,

Did you resolve this issue? I have the same with GI 12.2. I even tried to use NFS but without success.

Each time it hangs and system freezes in the same place:
