I have a 2 node Rac 11.2.0.4 - and after rebooting the server all of the databases are showing this same error in the alert log.
ORA-01565: Unable to open Spfile
--
I have check $ORACLE_HOME/dbs, gv$parameter, srvctl config database and the alert logs (2 nodes).
From the alert log:
Using parameter settings in server-side pfile /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/dbs/initnjwprd1.ora
System parameters with non-default values:
.............
alert log:spfile= "+DATA/njwprd/spfilenjwprd.ora"
..........
.../dbs directory has spfilenjwprd1.ora and spfilenjwprd2.ora -- both with single line: SPFILE='+DATA/njwprd/spfilenjwprd.ora'
srvctl shows +DATA/njwprd/spfilenjwprd.ora
gv$parameters spfile shows
+DATA/njwprd/spfilenjwprd.ora
+DATA/njwprd/spfilenjwprd.ora
I have no idea where the error is coming from when all these references are in agreement.
Is the problem in ASM?
