PROBLEM
When I try to create an controlfile for a RAC database using the CONTROLFILE Trace. I was throw with the below error message
SQL> @c.sql
CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE DATABASE "XE1" RESETLOGS FORCE LOGGING ARCHIVELOG
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01503: CREATE CONTROLFILE failed
SOLUTION
After analyzing the issue, I found that cluster_database parameter needs to be set as FALSE. So I am proceeding with the change.
SQL> alter system set cluster_database=FALSE scope=spfile sid=‘*‘;
System altered.
SQL> shutdown abort;
ORACLE instance shut down.

SQL> exit

Control file created.
Once the controlfile created and open the database, I have change the parameter to TRUE
SQL> alter system set cluster_database=TRUE scope=spfile sid=‘*‘;
Once you issue the command, you need to bounce the DB.
