Hi,

Looks like your database is using raw devices.
Did you check if this block device exist
'/dev/mapper/oraSMSTG_data_010_8600Mp6' and if user oracle has full
access to it ?

Do you have a backup of this file ? You can restore this database from
backup using RMAN and then open db.
Is this DB running in archive log mode ?
