Not sure if you've found your answers yet but if you follow these basic steps you should be fine.
1.  MSCS is already installed as you have stated
2.  Oracle on both nodes in the cluster (not the failsafe application yet)
3.  Create your oracle DB on one of your server nodes using the shared disc.
4.  Now install Oracle's FailSafe on each node in the cluster
5 ... From here you can use the FailSafe manager to finalize your cluster.

It sounds like you may have just installed FailSafe a little to early on.

Please post back if this helps.

Sorry meant to include this too...have you issued "alter database open" yet after the installation?

Sorry I know basic but I have to ask just to be sure.
please let me know the contents of the listner.ora and tnsnames.ora file on both nodes of the failsafe cluster.
Sorry about the delay in getting back to you.  I am traveling.

Please explain your question above.  Do you not know your listener and tns names?
