 Hello,I'm facing something strange!
We have a 11gR2 RAC database (orcl) running on 2-node Win2k8R2 cluster (node1 and nodel2) and the instances are orcl1 and orcl2.
When I login to node1 and run the following
set oracle_home=D:\app\user\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1
set oracle_sid=orcl1 
sqlplus system/password 
I get "ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error". I enabled tracing in sqlnet.ora and I got 
"snlpcss: Unable to spawn Oracle oracle     (DESCRIPTION=(LOCAL=YES)(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=beq))) orcl1, error 258." in the trace file
Knowing that I don't face any issue using the below methods
sqlplus system/password@orcl1

Howdy, Stranger!
