Hi,

an explanation of how can the voting disk be accessed even though ASM is
not running is available here: http://oracleinaction.com/voting-disk/ under
the section "Where is voting disk stored?". A similar issue is how to
access the ASM's spfile if it's stored in an ASM diskgroup itself:
http://oracleinaction.com/asm-spfile-on-asm/

Regards,
Jure
