votedisk无论是对于RAC(10g Clusterware、11g GI)而言，是非常重要的，我们称它为仲裁盘，当RAC集群中的某个节点发生故障而脱网掉线时，就由它来判断是否将其踢出集群，以保证集群正常运行，当votedisk损坏了，也就会导致集群服务无法启动，集群资源都无法加载，最后导致罢工。那么我们平时就要注意对votedisk的备份，在11g中，由于votedisk和ocr默认就会放进ASM磁盘组，因此可以不用特别关注，但对于10g的Cluster来说，由于不能放到ASM磁盘组，只能以raw的形式使用，因此要特别关注votedisk，定期对其进行备份，如：
用dd命令备份和恢复votedisk的方法：
备份：dd if=/dev/raw/raw3 of=/tmp/votedisk.bak
恢复：dd if=/tmp/votedisk.bak of=/dev/raw/raw3
如果很不幸，之前没有做过备份，且没有做过镜像，当votedisk损坏的时候，就只能对crs进行重建了，下面来演示一下这个过程：
--关闭crs，对votedisk的盘进行破坏，这里是/dev/raw/raw3
[root@rac1 ~]# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/raw/raw3 bs=4096 count=12800
再次重启crs，就提示无法启动了，查找ocssd.log日志文件发现，其中有记录，说明了是磁盘损坏
PS:10g Clusterware的日志入口地址是$ORA_CRS_HOME/log/主机名/...

重建crs很简单，就执行2个脚本：
1.$ORA_CRS_HOME/install/rootdelete.sh
2.$ORA_CRS_HOME/install/rootdeinstall.sh
节点1：
[root@rac1 install]# ./rootdelete.sh
Shutting down Oracle Cluster Ready Services (CRS):
Stopping resources.
Error while stopping resources. Possible cause: CRSD is down.
Stopping CSSD.
Unable to communicate with the CSS daemon.
Shutdown has begun. The daemons should exit soon.
Checking to see if Oracle CRS stack is down...
Oracle CRS stack is not running.
Oracle CRS stack is down now.
Removing script for Oracle Cluster Ready services
Updating ocr file for downgrade
Cleaning up SCR settings in '/etc/oracle/scls_scr'
[root@rac1 install]# ./rootdeinstall.sh
Removing contents from OCR device
2560+0 records in
2560+0 records out
10485760 bytes (10 MB) copied, 0.590608 seconds, 17.8 MB/s
节点2：
[root@rac2 install]# ./rootdelete.sh
Shutting down Oracle Cluster Ready Services (CRS):
OCR initialization failed with invalid format: PROC-22: The OCR backend has an invalid format
Shutdown has begun. The daemons should exit soon.
Checking to see if Oracle CRS stack is down...

[root@rac2 install]# ./rootdeinstall.sh

2560+0 records out
10485760 bytes (10 MB) copied, 0.627909 seconds, 16.7 MB/s
[root@rac2 install]# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/raw/raw3 bs=4096 count=128000

25601+0 records in
25600+0 records out

然后重新在2个节点依次执行$ORA_CRS_HOME/root.sh就可以了，软件的OUI不用重新安装
如果通过脚本无法删除成功，安装顺利重新安装crs，可以手工删除以下目录：
rm /etc/oracle/*
rm -f /etc/init.d/init.cssd
rm -f /etc/init.d/init.crs
rm -f /etc/init.d/init.crsd
rm -f /etc/init.d/init.evmd
rm -f /etc/rc2.d/K96init.crs
rm -f /etc/rc2.d/S96init.crs
rm -f /etc/rc3.d/K96init.crs
rm -f /etc/rc3.d/S96init.crs
rm -f /etc/rc5.d/K96init.crs
rm -f /etc/rc5.d/S96init.crs
rm -Rf /etc/oracle/scls_scr
rm -f /etc/inittab.crs
cp /etc/inittab.orig /etc/inittab
