umask 0022 for oracle account for Grid infrastructure

Hi all
just need some advise , I have raised a call with oracle support but did not get a useful answer , its was just "oracle recommends it"so that the way it is, so just need some explanation from experts out there

I am just about to install grid infrastructure and when i ran the runcluvfy.sh it fails on the umask setting , current it is set to u0027 and oracle want us to set it to u0022 which is world readable. Now our system admins and security guys are totally against this. They are willing to set it to u022 for the install and then change it once grid is installed by setting  the mount point to u027 , which i am totally against as i am not sure what the implications are?

Howdy, Stranger!
