What is interesting is that we have another 12.1.0.2 database on this
cluster and it's not having any issues.

The control files are on ASM:

SQL> show parameter control_files;

NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE
------------------------------------ -----------
------------------------------
control_files                        string
+DATA/ORCL/CONTROLFILE/current
                                                 .263.881061111,
+DATA/ORCL/CON

 TROLFILE/current.270.881061111

The database alert log shows the following:

NOTE: ASMB mounting group 1 (DATA)
NOTE: ASM background process initiating disk discovery for grp 1 (reqid:0)
WARNING: group 1 (DATA) has missing disks
ORA-15040: diskgroup is incomplete
WARNING: group 1 is being dismounted.
WARNING: ASMB force dismounting group 1 (DATA) due to missing disks
SUCCESS: diskgroup DATA was dismounted

The database shows the diskgroup and associated disks are mounted and
present:

  1  select a.disk_number, a.name, b.name, b.state from v$asm_disk a
  2  join v$asm_diskgroup b on a.group_number=b.group_number
  3* order by b.name, a.disk_number

Hi David, please check  whether the file system which has the database
control file is mounted and able to read ? check your asm alert log to get
additional info.

$crsctl stat res -t

Above command will provide online/offline status of all of your resources
including asm disk groups.

Thanks,
Vishnu

Good Afternoon,

I have upgraded the GI to 12.2 and the 12.1 databases are failing to
start with the error:

ORA-00205: error in identifying control file, check alert log for more
info

This behavior is described in  Doc ID 2247077.1 but the solution is to apply
12.1.0.2.170117 DB BP or above on RDBMS_HOME.  Unfortunately this doesn't
seem to be the answer in this case as the database is already at
12.1.0.2.170418.

CRS shows the following:

ora.orcl.db
      1        ONLINE  OFFLINE                               STABLE
      2        OFFLINE OFFLINE                               STABLE

I can't seem to get this database to go offline:offline.

Has anyone had a similar issue?
