Hi,
on 10g R2 on HP unix, I can not connect to ASm instance. When try I'm connected to an idle, even if my ASM is runing :
echo $ORACLE_SID
+ASM
export ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/product/10g/asm_1
sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL*Plus: Release 10.2.0.4.0 - Production on Fri May 6 11:21:06 2011

Connected to an idle instance.
SQL> show parameter type
ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
SQL> exit
Disconnected
ps -ef | grep pmon
oracle 6627 1 0 May 5 ? 0:23 ora_pmon_MYDB
oracle 24133 1 0 Apr 12 ? 3:35 asm_pmon_+ASM
ls -l *alert*
-rw-r----- 1 oracle dba 61752761 May 6 06:00 alert_+ASM.log
Thank for help.
