问题一：
报错截图如下：
在安装Grid Infrastructure的时候，图形界面会调用CVU验证安装环境，其中在验证网络参数的时候会出现验证失败的情况，但在操作系统层面通过no -a | grep ipqmaxlen命令验证相应参数已是正确配置。问题的解决办法如下：

Purpose
PRVE-0273 : The value of network parameter "udp_sendspace" for interface "en0" is not configured to the expected value on node "racnode1"
bug 13077654 - AIX specific
bug 13531373 - AIX specific
| This document is being delivered to you via Oracle Support's Rapid Visibility (RaV) process and therefore has not been subject to an independent technical review. |
Applies to:
Oracle Server - Enterprise Edition - Version: 11.2.0.1 and later [Release: 11.2 and later ]
Information in this document applies to any platform.
Purpose
This note lists typical causes and solutions for the following cluvfy error:
PRVE-0273 : The value of network parameter "rfc1323" for interface "en2" is not configured to the expected value on node "racnode1"
PRVE-0273 : The value of network parameter "udp_sendspace" for interface "en0" is not configured to the expected value on node "racnode1"
bug 13077654 - AIX specific
On AIX, runInstaller complains network parameter setting: ipqmaxlen, rfc1323, sb_max, tcp_sendspace, udp_sendspace, udp_recvspace
INFO: *********************************************
INFO: Network parameter - rfc1323: Checks if the network parameter is set correctly on the system
INFO: Severity:IGNORABLE
INFO: OverallStatus:VERIFICATION_FAILED
INFO: -----------------------------------------------
INFO: Verification Result for Node:racnode1

INFO: Error Message:PRVE-0273 : The value of network parameter "rfc1323" for interface "en2" is not configured to the expected value on node "racnode1".[Expected="1"; Found="en2=0"]
Manually verified with "ifconfig" and "/usr/sbin/no", the setting is as expected
This bug is fixed in 12.1 and onward
The workaround is to create a symbolic as root:
# ln -s /usr/sbin/no /etc/no
bug 13531373 - AIX specific
On AIX, runInstaller complains network parameter setting even when they are bigger than required:
INFO: *********************************************
INFO: Network parameter - tcp_sendspace: Checks if the network parameter is set correctly on the system
INFO: Severity:IGNORABLE
INFO: OverallStatus:VERIFICATION_FAILED
INFO: -----------------------------------------------
INFO: Verification Result for Node:racnode1

As you can see, the expected value is 65536, and the current value is 262144 is satisfies the requirement.
The fix is included in 11.2.0.3 GI PSU2, 11.2.0.4 and above, the error can be ignored.

2011-11-23 03:43:24: Failed to write the checkpoint:'' with status:FAIL.Error code is 256
Cause
The problem is caused by clusterware library pointing to non-exist Vendor clusterware library, eg:
$ ls -l /oracle/app/11.2.0.3/grid/lib/libskgxn*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 grid oinstall 33 Nov 23 03:08 /oracle/app/11.2.0.3/grid/lib/libskgxn2.so -> /opt/ORCLcluster/lib/libskgxn2.so
-rwxr-xr-x 1 grid oinstall 159806 Oct 20 23:55 /oracle/app/11.2.0.3/grid/lib/libskgxnr.a
lrwxrwxrwx 1 grid oinstall 33 Nov 23 09:38 /oracle/app/11.2.0.3/grid/lib/libskgxnr.so -> /opt/ORCLcluster/lib/libskgxnr.so
$ ls -l /opt/ORCLcluster
ls: 0653-341 The file /opt/ORCLcluster does not exist.
This is caused by HACMP executable is not removed cleanly when HACMP is deinstalled. When HACMP is installed, it installs the directory /usr/sbin/cluster/utilities along with others. Oracle OUI depends on /usr/sbin/cluster/utilities/cldomain to determine if vendor clusterware exists. If yes, then a symlink of $GRID_HOME/lib/libskgxn2.so will be created pointing to /opt/ORCLcluster/lib/libskgxn2.so (so does libskgxnr.so). /opt/ORCLcluster directory is setup during rootpre.sh if vendor cluster is presented.
In this case, HACMP was first installed, then Veritas software was installed, it caused the /usr/sbin/cluster/utilities/cldomain became a symlink pointing to Veritas clusterware:
$ ls -l /usr/sbin/cluster/utilities/cldomain
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root system 29 Sep 21 13:54 /usr/sbin/cluster/utilities/cldomain -> /opt/VRTSvcs/rac/bin/cldomain
When HACMP was deinstalled later, it removed all other files but left this symlink cldomain, causing Oracle considered vendor clusterware exists and created the symlink of libskgxn2.so and libskgxnr.so during link libraries phase in OUI installation. Further leads to root.sh failure.
Solution
1. When deinstalling vendor clusterware, make sure all associated files are removed. In this case, remove the symlink /usr/sbin/cluster/utilities/cldomain
2. Clean up the failed GI installation via $GRID_HOME/deinstall/deinstall command or clean up manually follow DOCUMENT 1364419.1
3. Reinstall Grid Infrastructure
