GSD services offline in 11g R2

Question:  On my Oracle 11.2.0.4 RAC (2 nodes) installation gsd services are OFFLINE.  Is this obsolete for 11.2.0.4 (migrated from 9i) or it's indicating some problem?

[oracle@myora1 bin]$ ./crs_stat -t|grep gsd

Name                  Type Target  State   Host
------------------------------------------------------------
ora.myora1.gsd        application  OFFLINE OFFLINE
ora.myora2.gsd        application  OFFLINE OFFLINE
ora.gsd               ora.gsd.type OFFLINE OFFLINE

Answer:  The GSD has been replaced by the CRS in 11g, and in 11g, by default, the Global Services daemon (GSD) is disabled.

See MOSC note 429966.1 titled "GSD Is Used Only if 9i RAC Database is Present".

Just remove the gsd lines from your crs_stat command:

[oracle@myora1 bin]$ ./crs_stat -t|grep -v gsd

You can even make an alias to permanently remove the gsd output annoyance:
alias my_crs_stat = "crs_stat -t|grep -v gsd"
