Can anyone tell me what the below messages mean?   I didn't find many
hits on the web:

Background:   

We have an Oracle RAC cluster of 2 nodes.   Yesterday one of the nodes
rebooted and its log indicates that Oracle forced the reboot to preserve
cluster integrity.   There were no other messages in that node's
/var/log/messages near the time of this message and reboot.    

 

We use a private lan setup on 2 bonded NICs on each side for the Oracle
Cluster Ready Services to communicate with each other.    That is bond0
and is using 2 Intel GigE NIC ports on both sides (eth2 and eth3 are the
NICs).    We found that the connectivity on the private lan had gone
away and on checking found that both eth2 and eth3 on the node that got
these messages was showing no link.   Running "ifdown bond0" followed by
"ifup bond0" re-established links on both eth2 and eth3.

 

The above messages occurred on the node where bond0's links were down
less than 2 minutes before the node that rebooted issued the message
about shutting down to preserve cluster integrity.   It seems fairly
clear the cause of the reboot was the loss of connectivity but I can't
really determine from the above log entries WHY bond0 went down.  So was
hoping someone had seen something like this and could give me a clue.   

 

P.S.  We don't actually use the ipv6 - the relevant addresses are the
ipv4 ones.   Apparently the guy who set this up didn't disable ipv6 on
these NICs but I don't believe that is the issue as they have been up
for a few months with this configuration.
