Permissions on Grid software binaries

edited Jan 15, 2015 10:01AM in Database - RAC/Scalability (MOSC) 7 commentsAnswered

Hi,

In our development environment we have RAC database.

In grid software some binary  files are owned by root and some files are owned by oracle user.

Linux admins apply patches regularly to our systems, according to oracle documentation they can start and stop CRS.

But the problem is they are unable to start CRS after patching .

I observed permissions on grid binaries.

On one node permisions are like below.

-rwxr-x--- 1 oracle dba     8644 Dec  3 22:58 crsctl

-rwxr-x--- 1 oracle dba 36824463 Jan  9  2014 crsctl.bin

On second node permisiions are like below.

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root dba     8644 Jan  1 03:16 crsctl

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root dba 36824463 Jan  1  2014 crsctl.bin

I have a doubt, who will have permissions on grid software and binaries?
