Below screen will come up and we need to put up the details accordingly:
Select the disks as per normal redundancy. Name of the Disk Group is DATA. This failure group contains 3 Disks in it.
Make sure grid home directory is created before you give below. It may throw a message that this GRID is not a part of ORACLE_BASE. In my case it did come reason being I had two version of Oracle Installed.
Press Yes.
To fix the mentioned missing prerequisites run the script from root user and press check again.
Execute the script from root user, output is as below:
[root@test ~]# /u01/app/11.2.0.3/grid/root.sh
