ASMlib will not initialize after reboot. OEL6.6

Greetings,
After some routine maintenance and cleaning up trace and alert logs on a dev server, a reboot was performed.
When the server came back up, the ASMlib would not initialize, and the /dev/oracleasm/disks folder was gone. ASMlib has been in use since day one on this machine, and has given no troubles in six months of operation.
Querying the disks shows that the headers are still intact, and that they are labelled as ASM disks.
Attempting to re-configure via /etc/init.d/oracleasm configure lead to no success.
I've also uninstalled and re-installed the oracle asm packages.
[root@oraserver~]# rpm -qa | grep asm
kmod-oracleasm-2.0.8-4.el6_6.x86_64
oracleasm-support-2.1.8-1.el6.x86_64
a tail of /var/log/oracleasm shows:
tail -f /var/log/oracleasm
Unable to instantiate disk "VOL2"

at this point, I'm out of ideas, and google has not been terribly helpful. Has anyone else run across this before? I'll get what ever information you might need to help suss out a cause.
Thanks for your time,
Ken

Cleaning the database diag directories cannot affect ASMLib. The problem must be something else. Since all the ASM device and diskgroup information is stored on the disks, it should be sufficient to simply re-install and reconfigure the software.
All ASMLib installations require the oracleasmlib and oracleasm-support packages in addition to the kernel driver, which is built-in only if you are using the Oracle UEK kernel. You might be missing the oracleasmlib package.
Perhaps the following will solve the problem:
su - root
wget http://download.oracle.com/otn_software/asmlib/oracleasmlib-2.0.4-1.el6.x86_64.rpm
yum install ./oracleasmlib-2.0.4-1.el6.x86_64.rpm
/etc/init.d/oracleasm configure

  • Firefox will not start, after reboot.

    For a few months now Firefox will not start after I reboot my computer. In order to get it to start I click the exe then must go into task manager kill it, click the exe again, kill it again then, from there it will typically start, but sometimes it may take one or two more trys. When clicking the exe firefox will appear in the task manager under processes but will will start with ~7% CPU usage, then quickly drop to zero every time until it does actually open and start. I have ran a full system recovery and started anew after reinstalling mozilla several times failed to fix the problem. I run virus and spyware checks often and come up clean, and also run Chrome as a default browser.
    == This happened ==
    A few times a week

    Hello Tom.
    You may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
    If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

  • RV220W 1.0.2.4: 6to4 Tunnel did not initialize after reboot

    IPv6 -> Tunneling
    The 6to4 tunnel did not initialize after a reboot.
    The automatic tunneling had to be disabled and enabled again.
    It was used for a 6in4 tunnel to tunnelbroker and the Remote End Point IPv4
    Address was enabled and specified.

    Why is this bad ?
    After a power outage or deliberate power cycling the unit, the IPv6 network is not working.
    What does this mean for Cisco? No sale.
    I do not replace our current branch office router with this unit yet.
    When managing the site remotely it has been invaluable, that the current router has been able to provide access through IPv6 when there was certain problems with IPv4.
    The issue has been reproduced.

  • HT200197 Menu will not appear after rebooting.

    After reboot, the menu no longer shows up.

    This indicates a Internet connectivity issue.  Although you are the 3rd posting I've seen on this today so it may also be an issue with Apple's servers.

  • OSX will not start after reboot from single user mode

    Hello,
    Yesterday my iBook G4 was only starting in BASH mode. I've looked at discussions describing Kernel Panic and have followed the advice posted to the following post:
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=1553062#1553062
    When I reboot I get past the language setup and the boot progress screen/progress bar gets almost complete before going to a continuously stalling/reloading blue screen.
    When I try the command:
    rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
    described in one of the responses I get a 'No such file or directory' message
    I assume that as when I try:
    cd /System/Library/CoreServices/Setup\ Assistant.app/Contents/MacOS
    It returns '-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 58912 16 Aug 21:10 Setup Assistant'
    it is the file that is missing.
    As the discussion thread I was following seemed to go off on a bunch of other tangents (and was completed), I am hoping somebody might have suggestions for my specific problem under this new discussion.

    Welcome To  Discussions Kongxyz!
    It will help if you first post some background info.
    "...only starting in BASH mode."
    Explain exactly what was happening, and what the screen displayed.
    Exactly which model iBook G4 is it?
    What is the Processor speed?
    What size is the Hard Drive, and how much space is available?
    How much RAM is installed, and is it original or added?
    Which version number of Panther 10.3.x is installed
    What peripherals do you have connected? A keyboard, mouse, printer, external drive or modem, router, etc?
    What happened between the last time the iBook started successfully, and when it didn't?
    Have you made any changes, like upgrading the system, updated or installed any applications or programs, etc?
    Have there been any unusual occurences, like freezes, crashes, power outages, etc?
    Are you able to startup from the system install disc to run Disk Repair?
    Have you run Repair Permissions?
    Instructions posted below.
    Is the Mac shutdown overnight, or does it run 24/7?
    Have you ever run any routine Maintenance procedures?

  • Compressor custom settings will not save after reboot

    I am having a problem with compressor removing my custom settings after I restart the program. I will save a custom format and it will show up in the custom folder however as soon as I close compressor and restart it shows 0 in the customer folder. I am guessing this is a bug in the new version but does anyone have any ideas? Also where do I submit a bug for compressor? Thanks

    I, too, have been experiencing this for quite a while in Compressor 3.  I upgraded to Compressor 4 this week, thinking that that, might solve my problem, but no.  Same thing is happening in Compressor 4.
    I have trashed my preferences, but still no luck.
    very frustrating.

  • TS1717 My Itunes will not launch after downloading and I have tried all the troubleshooting for itunes for Windows 7 64-bit. Do I need to system reboot my computer than try to download it again?

    My Itunes will not launch after downloading and I have tried all the troubleshooting for itunes for Windows 7 64-bit. Do I need to system reboot my computer than try to download it again?

    I'm having a very similar issue, paired with iTunes not being able to get online.
    iTunes shows up in processes and then hangs at 17,000 K or so -- sometimes it will start up, but that (if it occurs) is a delay of literal hours.
    Pretty meticulously went through all the 'cannot connect' trouble shooting, and have uninstalled, restarted, and then reinstalled every piece of apple software; issue is just as firm. Starting in safe mode or admin mode don't fix it; signing in as a different user doesn't fix it.    

  • Firefox will not open after logging off. Will only work if I reboot computer.

    Firefox always opens after booting up my computer in the morning. However, if I log off of Firefox and attempt to open it again it will not open without rebooting the computer first.

    Use the [[profiles|Profile Manager]] to create a new profile. If the problem goes away, you can then [[Recovering important data from an old profile|move]] your bookmarks and other important settings into the new profile.

  • Mac Mini will not boot after Security Update 2008-007

    Hello,
    A G4 Mac Mini machine I was asked to take a look at will not boot after the owner (succesfully) installed Security Update 2008-007 from Software Update. Booting always hangs at the blue screen after the Apple logo, and booting in verbose mode reveals that WindowServer is crashing repeatedly. Permissions and filesystems have been repaired, PRAM reset, etc. Safe boot also exhibits the same problem, but it is possible to boot to single user mode. Hardware checks out fine with diagnostic utilities.
    Any suggestions on how to fix this? Unfortunately, backups are not available (it's not my machine =).

    Hi Arkku , and a warm welcome to the forums!
    I'd certainly give Sig's advice a try first.
    If that should fail...

  • Photoshop CS4 will not launch after installing Yosemite.

    Photoshop CS4 will not launch after installing Yosemite. All the other CS4 apps open. I upgraded Java. Genius Bar could not get it to launch.

    Here's the fix I found, by way of an explanation...
    Snow Leopard prompted me on my first startup with the following error:
    "There is a conflict with the _______ font file. This font file contains a font name that conflicts with a system font required by Mac OS X to display onscreen text. You should move this font file to the Trash."
    The fonts it said were conflicting: Helvetica, HelveticaNeue.dfont, Lucida Grande, and Monaco. I figured Snow Leopard probably wanted to replace these fonts with newer versions, and so I clicked "Move to Trash" on all four.
    Apparently 10.6 trashed these fonts but didn't replace them. This was causing Photoshop to crash on load.
    So I restored my ~/Library/Fonts folder from a backup made just before upgrading and this time after a reboot I said "Allow Conflict" on all four dialog boxes and launched Photoshop... everything is back to normal!
    Not sure what kind of "conflict" it's referring to, but apparently moving these font files to the trash as OS X prompted me to do broke a number of apps. Should I report this as a bug?
    Thanks for the ideas!

  • ITunes will not launch after upgrade--click, bounce bounce, nada

    iTunes will not launch after upgrade--rebooted nothing--2 bounce icon
    then shut down all and unplugged, restarted--no change, iTunes still will not launch after upgrade
    iTunes current version
    on imac w/10.6.8

    I have the same issue.
    Allready uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it, but the same problem occurs.
    Icon keeps bouncing, and all that's visible is the first menu-item in the top menu bar, named iTunes. Nothing is clickable though.
    The iPhone Configuration Utility doesn't seem to work either, it crashes on uploading an app to my iPhone. I guess it's using some of iTunes' libs or something.
    Does anyone know how to get iTunes working again? I'm getting pretty desperate over here...
    Thanks!
