+++ Patch 21523375 – Oracle Grid Infrastructure Patch Set Update 11.2.0.4.8 (Oct2015) (Includes Database PSU 11.2.0.4.8)
+++ Case 1: GI Home and the Database Homes that are not shared and ACFS file system is not configured.
After the completion of Patch 21523375, TFA was installed.
If you need to shutdown processes running from grid, TFA will need to be stopped as well (# /etc/init.d/init.tfa stop) since crsctl stop crs does not stop TFA.
I ***incorrectly*** tweeted that start crs starts TFA.
TFA was started from patch apply.
Interested to see what happens in the next patching cycle.
