Note:

You cannot use this subprogram if your services are managed by Oracle Clusterware, Oracle Restart or Oracle GlobalData Services.

also

Operating Procedures

You cannot use the following procedures with Oracle Real Applications Clusterware, Oracle Restart and Oracle Global Data Services:

This was not mentioned in 10g
