通常，在安装数据库时，绝大多数都是要求把selinux及iptables关闭，然后再进行安装的。但是在运营商的系统中，很多安全的因素，需要将现网的数据库主机上的iptables开启的。
在开启iptables时就要注意了，比如一RAC中的hosts配置如下：
192.168.142.115 subsdb1
192.168.142.117 subsdb1-vip
10.0.0.115 subsdb1-priv
192.168.142.116 subsdb2
192.168.142.118 subsdb2-vip
10.0.0.116 subsdb2-priv
192.168.142.32 db-scan
那么理所当然的要将上面的IP都要放通的。但是在实际操作中，已经放通了上面的IP，结果数据库一的个实例宕掉了。
看看数据库的alert日志：

单纯从上面来看，初步可以断定是内部通信有问题，但是如何解决？
但再从数据库的alert和ASM实例的alert日志中都有这样的信息：
Private Interface 'bond2:1' configured from GPnP for use as a private interconnect.
[name='bond2:1', type=1, ip=169.254.148.209, mac=00-25-b5-00-00-67, net=169.254.0.0/16, mask=255.255.0.0, use=haip:cluster_interconnect/62]
Public Interface 'bond0' configured from GPnP for use as a public interface.
[name='bond0', type=1, ip=192.168.142.116, mac=00-25-b5-00-01-cb, net=192.168.142.0/24, mask=255.255.255.0, use=public/1]
Picked latch-free SCN scheme 3
从这个信息来看，RAC的内部通信还要用到net=169.254.0.0/16的IP，再从MOS Doc ID 1383737.1也有这样的说明，最后用ifconfig查到了RAC的两个节点中使用到的169网段的IP为：
169.254.122.59
169.254.148.209
在iptables中放通了这两个IP后，集群正常。
