ORA-00221: Error On Write To Control File

1063598Feb 4 2014 — edited Feb 4 2014

Experts,

Recently I was unable to connect to em12c console and after looking at the status of oms, I came to know that my database instance has crashed.

OMS status

./emctl status oms

Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c Release 2

Copyright (c) 1996, 2012 Oracle Corporation.  All rights reserved.

WebTier is Up

Oracle Management Server is not functioning because of the following reason:

Failed to connect to repository database. OMS will be automatically restarted once it identifies that database and listener are up.

I logged in and verified the alert log which had below I/O errors on the controlfile. I'm afraid to say that my control files are not multiplexed and I do not have a valid backup of controlfile.

CKPT (ospid: 25659): terminating the instance due to error 221

Please assist me what should be the workaround to fix this error. Is this just a I/O error on the controlfile, or do I have a disk failure?

Thanks
