Oracle Restart 19 -- roothas.sh fails with CLSRSC-762: Empty site GUID for the local site name

Problem

After cloning Oracle Restart to another host, reconfiguration might fail with the errors: 

# $GRID_HOME/grid/crs/install/roothas.sh

Using configuration parameter file: /u01/app/19.0.0.0/grid/crs/install/crsconfig_params

Solution

The common reason for this error, that file 

$GRID_HOME/grid/crs/install/crsgenconfig_params

stores references for the older host, and reconfiguration is happening on the newer host

As a solution, remove the file and try configuration again:

# rm -f $GRID_HOME/grid/crs/install/crsgenconfig_params
