Error deploying OracleRealApplicationClusters

[pushpi55]

I am following the steps mentioned in the github page to create racnode
https://github.com/oracle/docker-images/tree/main/OracleDatabase/RAC/OracleRealApplicationClusters
I installed all the prerequisite conatiners, i.e DNS and Storage containers for NFS volumes.
docker start racnoded1 is giving the following error

Upon delving more in the installation logs, found that the img files generated by Storage container, does not sufficient permissions and they are not part of proper group and user.

There are other failures as well. Pasting it here

Please give the output of below-

1. docker logs -f rac-dnsserver
2. docker logs racnode-storage
3. docker ps -a
4. docker network ls
5. docker volume ls
6. docker volume inspect racstorage
7. ls -lart /docker_volumes/asm_vol/$ORACLE_DBNAME/

[s1saurabh]

Looks like u r not following document , why do u have -volume /home/test/docker_volumes/asm_vol/ORCLCDB:/oradata , it has to come from docker volume racstorage. Can you try using it?
