On an Oracle 11204 restart environment, ASM spfile creation failed with error ora-600
create spfile='+DATA5' from pfile='/u03/asmpfile.ora' * ERROR at line 1: ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [ksprcvsp:ksfdread_resilver],[0x0A2435D48], [3], [0x7F710EE38000], [512], [], [], [], [], [], [], []
This was caused due to a ASM disk with UNKNOWN HEADER_STATUS. NAME PATH HEADER_STATU FAILGROUP ---------------------- -------------- ------------ ---------- _DROPPED_0000_DATA5 /dev/raw/raw1 MEMBER UNKNOWN DATA5_FG1 DATA5_0001 /dev/raw/raw2 MEMBER DATA5_FG2
Fixed the problem, by adding the disk in ASM diskgroup
SQL> alter diskgroup DATA5 add FAILGROUP DATA5_FG1 disk '/dev/raw/raw1' force ;
Post this change, I was able to create spfile without any issue.
