Getting RPC Error 88

[Adam Miller]

It appears you're running Oracle Linux with Oracle's Unbreakable
Enterprise Kernel (UEK) [0] which is not compatible with RHEL's standard
kernel [1] nor is it the kernel that goes through the same level of testing
and compliance as a tier 1 operating system validation with the major 
hardware vendors [2]. I would suggest either rebooting into the standard
RHEL compatible kernel (it will be a 2.6.18 kernel), filing a ticket 
with Oracle about the issue you're facing, or migrate back to real RHEL ;)
