Troubleshooting Clusterware startup problems with DTRACE

First Steps which may avoid setting up DTRACE at all

Cleanup your special sockets file in /var/tmp/.oracle

Either reboot your OS or Cleanup sockets file and reboot CRS stack :
[root@hract21 Desktop]# crsctl stop crs -f
[root@hract21 Desktop]# rm -rf /var/tmp/.oracle/*
[root@hract21 Desktop]# crsctl start crs
 CRS-4123: Oracle High Availability Services has been started.

Note: A complete OS reboot may be needed to fix hanging processes waiting on DISKWAIT 
      If possible always try to do an OS reboot. 
      An OS reboot will always cleanup  /var/tmp/.oracle/*

Quickly verify your OS with a simple sh script : chk_os.sh

#!/bin/bash 
NS=ns1.example.com
HOSTNAME1=hract21.example.com
HOSTNAME2=hract22.example.com
PRIV_IP1=192.168.2.121
PRIV_IP2=192.168.2.122
