In srvctl I have the following parameters:

[root@primrac1 script]# srvctl config database -db orcl

Database unique name: orcl

When I start database using srvctl I get the following:

PRCR-1079 : Failed to start resource ora.orcl.db

But when I try to start using sqlplus, the dartabase starts without any problem:
