Re: ASM processes asm_pz99_+ASM1 and asm_pz98_+ASM1?

Thanks Dimitre. You are right:
SQL> select slave_name,status from v$pq_slave;

SLAVE_NAME STATUS
------------ ------------

PZ98         IDLE
PZ99         IDLE

Obviously, ASM also spawns parallel slaves to access GV$ views: SQL> select inst_id, slave_name,status from gv$pq_slave;

   INST_ID SLAVE_NAME STATUS
---------- ------------ ------------

         2 PZ99         BUSY
         1 PZ99         BUSY

I've got confused as I used to see them as ora_Pxxx where x is [0-9].
