The four-node RAC was installed successfully, and now, the next step is to run the OraInventory.sh & the root.sh script on all four nodes.
After running the root.sh from node 1, initially it looks fine but finally failed the root.sh with the below-highlighted error.

The error message clearly refers to the Disk Group issues, so the best practice is to format the partitions of the OCR Disks and rerun the root.sh should fix the issue.
