Understanding the architecture is very important in RAC. I would advice to read Oracle doc first before going to any books. Also make sure you create a test environment and do practice, just reading the books/documentation is not enough.

Follow the steps and you will not see any issue.

CONNECT AUXILIARY sys/*****@dupDB; Fails if the database is in nomount as the listener status is shown as "Blocked"
.
When the database is in nomount stage, the listener shows status "BLOCKED" and disables all the connections with @ORACLE_SID
