CRS Admin Utility Problems
The cluster is not in synchronization
Symptom The cluster is not in synchronization.
Error Message Rerun the CRS Admin Utility again to bring the cluster back into
synchronization.
Possible Cause This can happen due to a variety of reasons: The password setting or synchronization
failed in the middle of the process. The update was done on a bootstrap data store but not on a
Windows database. The update was done on one node but not on the second node.
Recommended Action Rerun the CRS Admin Utility again to bring the cluster back into synchronization.
CRS Admin Utility exits or does not come up after login.
Symptom CRS Admin Utility exits or does not come up after login.
Error Message None
Possible Cause The CRS Admin Utility runs on a system where CRS has been properly installed and
configured.
Possible Cause Check the status of the configuration manager (and the bootstrap manager for both nodes,
if you have a two node system) from the CRS Admin control center.
Possible Cause The CRS Admin Utility needs to have the CRS configuration manager In_service for a
single node system or the CRS configuration manager and bootstrap manager In_service for a
multiple node system.
Recommended Action Properly install and configure the CRS system.
The CRS Admin Utility fails due to data corruption
Symptom The CRS Administration Utility fails due to data corruption.
Error Message None
Possible Cause The CRS Admin Utility fails when there is data corruption in the bootstrap data store.
Any process running on the node on which the Admin Utility is running and that has access to the
bootstrap data store can cause data corruption. For example, the Admin Utility, the CRS engine,
CONFINGAPI, and so on, many cause data corruption.
Recommended Action When the Admin Utility fails on one node due to data corruption, try to run it from
another bootstrap server node. If the Admin Utility fails agin, contact TAC.
