Adding Nodes to Existing Cluster With Wrong Permissions on Directories

edited Nov 11, 2013 5:06AM in Database - RAC/Scalability (MOSC) 2 commentsAnswered
I was attempting to add 2 new nodes to my current production cluster and had successfully run addNode.sh for the clusterware, but during the addNode.sh for the Database portion, the install could not create the "db_1" directory on the new nodes in order to tranfer the files.  Long story short, I recursively changed the owner to oracle (was root) on /u01/app/oracle in an attempt to continue with the install.  The install completed, but nothing was copied.
Is the only way to clear this up to remove the 2 nodes from the cluster, then re-add them via the same methods I used before?  Albeit with proper ownership on the directories?  Will I still be able to use the same node names, etc.

Howdy, Stranger!
