Disabling the clustering daemon for Oracle 10g or later

If you installed Oracle binaries for Oracle versions 10g or later on shared disks, you must disable the Oracle clustering daemon.

Warning:

If you want to use ASM feature, then do not disable the Oracle clustering daemon.

Oracle versions 10g and later provide a clustering daemon called Oracle Cluster Synchronization Service Daemon (CSSD). If the Oracle binary files are on a shared storage, the init command to start the daemon may result in an error. Because a VCS cluster for Oracle does not require this daemon, Veritas recommends you to disable the daemon.
