After discovering why ASM and CRS failed to start up, I decided to rebuild the REDFERN cluster from scratch.
Only re-initiallised the root_disk in both VMs in order to get a clean installation.
This time, I selected the minimal development environment in order to install Perl, and I created douglas as an admin user. Used visudo to not require the password for sudo for admin users (wheel group).
I did the following:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/xvdh bs=8K count=12800At Step 7: Network Interface Usage, the following message appeared:
Cause - Installer has detected that network interface eth0 does not maintain connectivity on all cluster nodes.
Action - Ensure that the chosen interface has been configured across all cluster nodes.
Additional Information:
Summary of the failed nodes
redfern2 - PRVG-11850 : The system call "connect" failed with error "113" while executing exectask on node "redfern2"
No route to host
- Cause: An attempt to execute exectask on the specified node failed.
- Action: Examine the accompanying error message for details or contact Oracle Support Services.
redfern1 - PRVG-11850 : The system call "connect" failed with error "113" while executing exectask on node "redfern1"
No route to host
- Cause: An attempt to execute exectask on the specified node failed.
- Action: Examine the accompanying error message for details or contact Oracle Support Services.
Following the advice in [INS-41112] Specified network interface doesnt maintain connectivity across cluster nodes. (Doc ID 1427202.1), I ran the following commands:
cd /opt/share/Software/grid/linuxamd64_12102/grid ./runcluvfy.sh comp nodecon -i eth0 -n redfern1,redfern2 -verbose
The output was:

Following part of Oracle RAC12c on OL 7 using Virtualbox,I arn the following commands on both REDFREN1 and REDFREN1:
sudo systemctl stop firewalld sudo systemctl disable firewalld
The output was:
Removed symlink /etc/systemd/system/dbus-org.fedoraproject.FirewallD1.service. Removed symlink /etc/systemd/system/basic.target.wants/firewalld.service.
