Conversely, I don't know why you'd use SG+CRS if you're doing active/passive, since CRS by itself is a perfectly respectable HA clustering solution :). With CRS and ASM-managed database storage, there's nothing you'd be missing. If you aren't using ASM, though, you'd have to use RAW devices or some other cluster filesystem since OCFS isn't available on HPUX.
