GI ocssd.log rotation fails and logfile grows to huge size


Solution 1:

The CSSD thread that encountered the LFI-00142 error needs to be restarted to ensure log rotation works again.
Manually deleting the logfile will not resolve the log rotation problem.

1).  Shutdown CRS on the node reporting the problem.
# crsctl stop crs
2).  Once CRS is down,  proceed to manually delete the 'ocssd.l10' file, or copy the logfile to another location if you need to keep a backup.
# rm  $GRID_HOME/log/<hostname>/cssd/ocssd.l10
3).  Startup Clusterware again
# crsctl start crs

Solution 2:

If you don't get downtime, then follow below step. But it is not sure whether issue will resolve.

% echo 0 > ocssd.l10

Please note this does not resolve the log rotation problem but only allows you to free up some space.
