The ASM is unavailable, how to make it work?

I am a new user of oracle.
We have installed oracle 10g R1 on Linux Redhat 9 server.(It is not me who installed and configured oracle)
I have done some test including creating/deleting tables, adding user, and so on. It works well. I didn't notice the status of ASM then.
After that, I partitioned a new hard disk(no relationship with oracle) on the same server and reboot it without stopping the Oracle(without stopping anything).After the reboot, I started the oracle DB, the EM, the listener again(started and stopped for several times). And oracle can work. I then wanted to do some back up but found the ASM is unavailable.

I checked the /etc/sysconfig/oracleasm and found the ORACLEASM_UID, ORACLEASM_GID, ORACLEASM_CLEARBOOT and ORACLEASM_SCANEXCLUDE are blank.
I ran the /etc/init.d/oracleam configure
to set ORACLEASM_UID=oracle
ORACLEASM_GID=dba
I haven't restarted the ASM yet. I am afraid I will destroy something.
Can anybody give me some advice? Thank you very much!

Thank you for your helpful replies. I will report my status:
1) I have found there is no ORACLE_SID at all in my system.
2) $ORACLE_HOME/bin/emctl status dbconsole
it shows : No ORACLE_SID is defined.
3) I exported the ORACLE_SID=+ASM in the .bash_profile
4) $ORACLE_HOME/bin/emctl status dbconsole
it shows: TZ set to US/Central
OC4J Configuration issue. /opt/oracle/product/10.1.0/db_1/oc4j/j2ee/OC4J_DBConsole_localdomain_+ASM not found.
(*NOTE: ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/product/10.1.0/db_1)
5) I don't know how to check the EM version. But when I click Start Application-Oracle 10g Menu-DBA Tasks-Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Database Control Start, it shows:
TZ set to US/Central
Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Database Control Release 10.1.0.2.0

Logs are generated in directory /opt/oracle/product/10.1.0/db_1/localhost.localdomain_orcl10g/sysman/log
6) I can not find any *.dbf in my system, and I have only a raw partitions named oracleasm mounted in /dev/oracleasm. When I click Start Application-Oracle 10g Menu-DBA Tasks-Oracle 10g Database Start, it shows:
SQL> Connected to an idle instance.
SQL> ASM instance started

Database "+ASM" warm started.
Database "+ASM" already started.
Database "+ASM" already started.
All these things make me guess the dabases were built using ASM. Am I right?
7) If it is EM configuration problem, what should I do next?
Thanks a lot!

  • How to make tablesorter work for GroupedColumns??

    Hi all,
    I imported the class of TableSorter.java to my project. It automatically picks up my normal columns, they all can be sorted.
    but the groupedColumns generated by the drag and drop table node into the design area wont pick up, even i set the property of "onAction" of the column to "Sort"(method) it wont sort the content for me.
    how to make it work?
    thanks

    hi!
    you can get lead selection in the action handler then inset your code for currentContextElement.
    wdContext.currentContextElement().getTableSorter().sort(wdEvent, wdContext.nodeXXX());
    thanks

  • The edit button is spinning forever in the ibooks app. How to make it stop?

    The edit button is spinning forever in the ibooks app. How to make it stop spinning?

    I used to have this problem on a iPad 2 with iOS7 (and iOS6).  Everytime I would install a new PDF, iBooks would churn away like it was scanning it.  The book wouldn't even show up for me to read until the churning stopped. Eventually the edit button would re-enable and the doc would appear..  It seemed to keep getting worse each time.
    I then did a complete restore to the iPad.  Now when I load a new book, it immediately is available for edit.  iBooks still works fine 3 months after I did the restore.

  • Macbook pro to HDTV, video is working but audio is not working, how to make audio work as well

    Macbook pro to HDTV, video is working but audio is not working, how to make audio work as well

    If you use an HDMI cable, the audiostream will be integrated, so there will be sound when using an HDMI cable!
    Not necessarily.  That only works as stated if you have one of the most recent MBP's that has a built-in HDMI port.
    If the MBP only has a Thunderbolt or miniDisplayPort, you need an appropriate adapter cable and even if you use an HDMI adapter or cable to connect to your HDTV there is no guarantee it will carry audio.  You have to determine if your specific MBP model supports audio out through its miniDisplayPort or Thunderbolt output, and whether the adapter does likewise.

    If it is not currently supported is that then due to a bug / oversight and in that case is it something that will be fixed in the near future?
