Grid installation on the standalone database server is also known as oracle Restart. This is required if you wish you use ASM file system with oracle restart feature. Oracle Restart Means, During any accidental Hardware or software failure, it will start the database components like database instance, listener service, ASM instance automatically. Here there won’t be any OCR or VOTING disk.

In this article, we will install grid software, then RDBMS binary and will create a database also.

1. Download and unzip the grid software:

It should be successful.

$ ./runcluvfy.sh stage -pre hacfg
