Problem with DBCA in RAC

Question

Gurus
I am installing RAC 10g by using NFS
Everything is running fine untill i run into this problem
"The directories /u01/app/oracle/flash_recovery_area] are not on cluster file system partitions shared across nodes node1,node2"
Any idea about it
u01 is already mounted..
Plz suggest

hi Chandra
Thanks for the reply again
I followed the following steps
mkdir /share1
mkdir /share2
Add the following lines to the /etc/exports file.
/share1 *(rw,sync,no_wdelay,insecure_locks,no_root_squash)
/share2 *(rw,sync,no_wdelay,insecure_locks,no_root_squash)
Run the following command to export the NFS shares.
chkconfig nfs on
service nfs restart
On both RAC1 and RAC2 create some mount points to mount the NFS shares to.
mkdir /u01
mkdir /u02
Add the following lines to the "/etc/fstab" file. The mount options are suggestions from Kevin Closson.
node1:/share1 /u01 nfs rw,bg,hard,nointr,tcp,vers=3,timeo=300,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,actimeo=0 0 0
node1:/share2 /u02 nfs rw,bg,hard,nointr,tcp,vers=3,timeo=300,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,actimeo=0 0 0
Mount the NFS shares on both servers.
mount /u01
mount /u02
Create the shared CRS Configuration and Voting Disk files.
touch /u01/crs_configuration
touch /u01/voting_disk
Create the directories in which the Oracle software will be installed.
mkdir -p /u01/crs/oracle/product/10.2.0/crs
mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1
mkdir -p /u01/oradata
chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01 /u02
Please Guide
