I first tried running the following srvctl commands:
srvctl status diskgroup -g DBFS_DG -a -- this one came back with no
error but did not resolve the issue
srvctl status diskgroup -g DBFS_DG -v -- this one came back with the
error and did not resolve the issue
Thanks, Matt

Others on the list will probably know better the reason for this, but
for now maybe these two references:
1) Expert Oracle RAC 12c:
To manage a database, it is advisable to use the srvctl command. While
it is possible to manage databases as Clusterware objects using crsctl
commands, you should try to use the srvctl command whenever possible.
The srvctl command provides an additional layer of security and avoids
unnecessary activity in the Clusterware owner account.
2) MOS Doc ID 1053147.1:
Srvctl and crsctl are used to manage clusterware resources. The general
rule is to use srvctl for whatever resource management you can. Crsctl
should only be used for things that you cannot do with srvctl (like
start the cluster).

I had a disk group on a node in a RAC cluster go in the intermediate
state which prevented srvctl from starting the database because there
was a dependency on the diskgroup. To resolve the issue I ran a crsctl
check resource ora.DBFS_DG.dg which resolved the issue and then the
database was able to start just fine through srvctl.
My question is in the oracle documentation it says not to run crsctl
check resource on an ora resource. Why is that?
From 11.2 documentation see notes in bold
crsctl check resource
Use the crsctl check resource command to initiate the check action
inside the
application-specific agent of a particular resource. Oracle Clusterware
only provides
output if something prevents the system from issuing the check request,
such as a bad
resource name.
Usage Notes
■ You must have read and execute permissions on the specified resources
to check
them
■ Do not use this command for any resources with names that begin with
ora
because these resources are Oracle resources
■ If this command is successful, it only means that a check was issued;
it does not
mean the CHECK action has been completed
