Re: DBCA error while creating a 2nd database on RAC cluster

Have you tried rac rather than RAC.  Alternatively have a look at the
diags from the working install.

Hi all,

We've a 2-node RAC cluster with a database up and running using ASM and
we're trying to add another database to the cluster via DBCA. It shows up a
popup with the following message at the "storage options" screen in dbca --

DBCA could not start ASM instance configured on this node. To proceed with
database creation using ASM you need the ASM instance to be up and running.
Do you want to recreate the ASM instance on this node?

The OS is Linux4 and the database is 10.2.0.3. ASM is seen OK from sqlplus
and EM finds it healthy. I've an SR open with Oracle but I suspect it will
take longer to diagnose the issue and thought if anyone had any tips etc to
check. We're not getting any hits on Google and/or metalink.

TIA,
