ASM error

ASM-installing-error.jpg

What OS? which Oracle version?
Sure you following the install instructions?
You must have the cluster related services (crs) started and asm registered.

Is windows 2008 Service Pack 2.

Is Oracle 11.2.0.

The error occurs when executing "asmca"  command, and when i click "create ASM" button.

I did a server reboot, and still got the error.  Is a little bit different, but still have the error.  Check the below error message.

Configuring ASM failed with the following message:
Configuring HA resource failed. The following error occured:
PRCA-1003 : Failed to create ASM asm resource ora.asm
PRCR-1071 : Failed to register or update resource ora.asm
CRS-0245:  User doesn't have enough privilege to perform the operation

It is not a Cluster environment, is an Oracle standalone server.

I just want to configure an ASM for my 10g database, but installing 11.2.0 ASM.

CRS-0245:  User doesn't have enough privilege to perform the operation

You need to start with account belonging to group "DBA" or "ORADBA" (don't remember which) and that also owns the software.
:p

Yes, the account i am using is admin group, DBA group and owns the software.

And you are starting asmca as administrator?
What if it's trying to create a file on disk where you have no permissions?

yes, everything i am doing is with administrative privilegies.

Why you want to use ASM on winDoze?
Never, ever, ever have I seen anyone install it or yet attempt it.

Because all our servers are Windows, ASM should work also on Windows.
Is not a matter of operating system i suppose.

Well, being a privilege issue, then you may have to focus on setting adequate privileges on your disks.
