DBCA Does Not Display ASM Disk Groups In 11.2.0.4

Question

DBCA trying to create a database with a different user oracle  than grid user. installed Grid infrastructure with user grid, and I was trying to create a database with user oracle (who’s the owner of oracle rdbms). But during this installation I wasn’t able to see any of my ASM disk. This is all under Oracle 11.2.0.4.
what to check .. all appears ok .... at a loss at this point
1.  asm up online   .... ok
crs_stat -t
Name           Type           Target    State     Host       
ora.DATA.dg    ora....up.type ONLINE    ONLINE    sqls...r-pc
ora.FRA.dg     ora....up.type ONLINE    ONLINE    sqls...r-pc
ora....ER.lsnr ora....er.type ONLINE    ONLINE    sqls...r-pc
ora.asm        ora.asm.type   ONLINE    ONLINE    sqls...r-pc
ora.cssd       ora.cssd.type  ONLINE    ONLINE    sqls...r-pc
ora.diskmon    ora....on.type OFFLINE   OFFLINE              
ora.evmd       ora.evm.type   ONLINE    ONLINE    sqls...r-pc
ora.ons        ora.ons.type   OFFLINE   OFFLINE              
[grid@sqlservrer-PC ~]$

2. Check your oracle binary mount point (option nosuid disable)  OK
$ cat /etc/fstab
UUID=f7fcc326-7c70-43ac-ba86-fe0805e1c57f /boot                   ext4    defaults        1 2
/dev/mapper/VolGroup-loradata /oradata                ext4    defaults        1 2
/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lorainist /orainst               ext4    defaults        1 2
UUID=39c84d4c-6be8-4d4c-8d27-5762d2d1f7df swap                    swap    defaults        0 0
tmpfs   
3. ids  ok
proc                   proc    defaults        0 0
[grid@sqlservrer-PC ~]$ id oracle
uid=500(oracle) gid=501(oinstall) groups=501(oinstall),500(dba),503(asmadmin),504(asmdba),505(asmoper)
rid@sqlservrer-PC ~]$ id grid
uid=501(grid) gid=501(oinstall) groups=501(oinstall),500(dba),503(asmadmin),504(asmdba),505(asmoper)
4.
4. Check  if file permissions in <Grid_home>/bin/oracle executable are set properly, it should be 6751.ok
$ ls -l $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle
-rwsr-s–x 1 grid oinstall 200678430 Jun 16 12:44 /app/11.2.0/grid/bin/oracle
5.  ile or directory
[grid@sqlservrer-PC ~]$ ls -alt $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle
-rwsr-s--x 1 grid oinstall 209914513 Sep 17 20:02 /ora
6. Check asm disk permissions, with two users it should be : grid — asmadmin
$ ls -ltr /dev/oracleasm/disks/
6.
[grid@sqlservrer-PC ~]$ ls -altR /dev/oracleasm/disks
/dev/oracleasm/disks:
total 0
brw-rw---- 1 grid asmadmin 8, 5 Sep 19 14:48 DATA1
brw-rw---- 1 grid asmadmin 8, 6 Sep 19 14:48 FRA1
brw-rw---- 1 grid asmadmin 8, 8 Sep 19 12:43 FRA2

Answer 1

Checked Metalink  apparently here is the answer.  There should be nothing wrong if you follow the above four(4)
procedures and the output is good. Problem is when you click on ASM, click on OMF, then you have to click
on the open pane several times before the window with Disk Groups appears.  Took 4 secs for it to appear.
It will not be immediate.
