Antonio,
ASM needs to be installed on all nodes in the cluster before the Database can be created. If you use DBCA to create the initial database, you will be prompted to create the ASM instance.

Subject: RAC installation issues
Hi,
We are setting up an Oracle RAC environment in IBM AIX. We’ve read all the documentation and some books and we understood very well the installation process.
We are using Oracle Standard Edition and a two-node
setup. We’ve outlined the main tasks:
- Configure raw devices for OCR and voting;
But where should we install ASM? Oracle support told us that we need one instance of ASM in server 1 and one instance of ASM in server 2. How to do both servers, using different ASM instances, see the same shared disks? Or do I need one ASM instance in server 1 and make server 2 use this instance installed in server 1?
We’ve searched all books and install guides, but could not find anything that would help us with these questions. Please, could someone help us or pointed us a good documentation or book regarding this issues?
Best regards,
Antonio Belloni
