During the creation of a new database for RAC environment using DBCA, It shows the error about invalid grid and diskgroup not mounted.

Cause

I check the permission for Grid Home/bin/oracle binary file

[oracle@node1 ~]$ ls -l /u02/app/11.2.0/grid/bin/oracle
-rwxrwxr-x oracle dba 210824714 June 30 09:00 /u02/app/11.2.0/grid/bin/oracle

Solution

Stop the ASM instance and then execute following command

[oracle@node1 ~]$ chmod 6751 /u02/app/11.2.0/grid/bin/oracle
[oracle@node1 ~]$ ls -l /u02/app/11.2.0/grid/bin/oracle
-rwsr-s–x 1 oracle dba 210824714 July 30 09:02 /u02/app/11.2.0/grid/bin/oracle

By Changing the permission on second node grid home oracle binary file .

Start the ASM instance and then tried to create the database using DBCA. It was successful.

Please take note your environment may be different from mine, just pay attention to the error log to determine what is the correct group for your oracle grid binary file.
