Re: Creating New 10G DB With DBCA in 11g Grid Can't Find ASM Instance

I had encountered a similar issue
more than a year back. In our case,
it turned out that clusterware didn't
have correct/upgraded OH details.

Updating and removing old OH information via srvctl resolved it.

ocrdump could give you some
insight.

Thanks,
Rajeev
