	| Hi, 
 I have created the ASM, installed Grid and ORacle 11g on linux (5) platform.
 
 I am using following linux version.
 
 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.5 (Tikanga)
 Kernel \r on an \m
 
 Oracle_home = /opt/oracle/product/11.2.0/db
 Grid Path = /opt/grid/11.2.0/grid
 
 [oracle@bluemoon admin]$ ps -ef | grep pmon
 oracle    2902     1  0 15:14 ?        00:00:00 asm_pmon_+ASM
 oracle    5374  3024  0 17:28 pts/1    00:00:00 grep pmon
 
 [oracle@bluemoon dbs]$ export ORACLE_SID=+ASM
 [oracle@bluemoon dbs]$ asmcmd
 Connected to an idle instance.
 ASMCMD> ls
 ASMCMD-08102: no connection to ASM; command requires ASM to run
 
 After installing I am not able to connect but it is showing above error and showing the ASM process.
 
 In bash_profile, Oracle_home = /opt/oracle/product/11.2.0/db
 
 Please advise. This is very urgent.

	| Thank very much Mahesh. 
 But I have one doubt.
 
 What is the use of ORACLE_HOME?
 Listener is in Grid/network/admin path where as tnsnames is in oracle_home/network/admin path. If I create the database, will the listener entry be added or not?

	| Hi, 
 I am able to connect to ASM and I created the database using DBCA but When I connect to database it is connecting to Idle instance. why it is conencting to Idle Instance.

	| I see everyone else has given up, so I'll try to sum up what you need to know, though it is all in the 2 Day DBA guide. 
 To connect to your ASM instance, do this:
 
 export ORACLE_HOME=/opt/grid/11.2.0/grid
 export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
 export ORACLE_SID=+ASM
 sqlplus / as sysasm
 
 To connect to your database instance, do this:
 
 export ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/product/11.2.0/db
 export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
 export ORACLE_SID=IPCDB1
 sqlplus / as sysdba

	| Sorry John, I didn't get you. 
 In bash_profile,
 1)If I keep grid(/opt/grid/11.2.0/grid) path as ORACLE_HOME then ASM is working fine but when I put oracle home(/opt/oracle/product/11.2.0/db) path as ORACLE_HOME then ASM is not working. What is the exactly oracle_home path?
 2) How should I declare the two ORACLE_HOME paths differently?
 3) Is it required to export ORACLE_HOME path every time when I connect to database?
 
 Please clarify.
 
 I am seeing the following error in the above attached log.
 
 "ERROR: failed to establish dependency between database IPDC_DB1 and diskgroup resource ora.IPDCDATA1.dg"

	| Thank you very much Mahesh. 
 If I export ORACLE_HOME differently for connecting the ASM and database then it is working ASM and database.
 
 I have two clarifications here.
 
 1) Without executing .profile files or manully exporting ORACLE_HOME, is there any way to connect to ASM and database automatically? (For example Suppose I exported ORACLE_SID=+ASM, If i give sqlplus it should connect to ASM else I exported ORACLE_SID=IPDCDB1, If i give sqlplus it should connect to IPDCDB1).
 
 2) I am seeing the 3 database are created in my server but If i give ps -ef | grep pmon then it is showing 2 databases. When I stop and start the listener then also two databases are starting but third database is not starting? Please tell me how the database will start automatically If I start the listener.

	| 1) Did you even try to read that 2 Day DBA manual that we are all fond of? ORACLE_SID is bounded/registered with the ORACLE_HOME it is been created with.
 So, if you want to export ORACLE_SID, you need to export ORACLE_HOME too.
 What you can do is (even without exporting ORACLE_SID),
 set add tnsentres to tnsnames.ora in grid_home that will talk to database in oracle_home via listener.
 something like this
 
 sqlplus user/pass@oracleDbYouwantToConnnect
 Quote:
 >>Please tell me how the database will start automatically If I start the listener.
 
 When you stop/start the listener, you start/stop the listener. Not the database.You have to start /stop the database.
 You can manually write a script or edit dbshut/dbstart to include the correct listener.
