Changes

Recently upgraded the GRID_HOME software.

Cause

Unpublished Bug 22135419 - 12C GRID HOME PERMISSIONS NOT RESET, OCW PATCH PARTIALLY APPLIED AFTER POSTPATCH  

Solution

 This can be resolved by unlocking and relocking the GRID_HOME again.

# <GRID_HOME>/crs/install/rootcrs.pl -unlock
# <GRID_HOME>/crs/install/rootcrs.pl -patch

$ORACLE_HOME above is the GRID_HOME, and the commands need to be executed as root.

Note also that running rootcrs script above will cause the clusterware to shutdown and restart, so please plan accordingly.  The above will lock the grid home again
