Question about how a RAC database connects to ASM
I have recently installed Grid Clusterware 11.2.0.1 on an IBM PSeries server running AIX. Today, I installed the Oracle database software, version 11.2.0.1, but when I try to start the database, I get an error message: ORA-01031: insufficient privileges.
I can log in to the ASM instance using "sys as sysdba" but when I try to log in to ASM as "sys as sysasm" then I get the same error message.
Obviously I have configured something incorrectly. I would appreciate any help locating the proper documentation so I can correct my errors. All advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
