Re: Root.sh Disk group creation failed

Is the disk physical sector size 512 or 4K. In the latter case, ASM may not be able to create small block size files, like controfiled and probably OCR files.
I had to force ASMLib in the past to use the logical sector size of the disks (512) to be able to create controfiles during a RMAN duplicate.

I just found out that I haven't blogged about it yet, so I have a pending task here.

I hope this gives you a clue on the issue.
