Yup, saw that one. Not an issue:
% cat $ORA_ASM_HOME/network/admin/sqlnet.ora:
# sqlnet.ora.NODE1 Network Configuration File: /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/asm/network/admin/sqlnet.ora.NODE1 # Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES, EZCONNECT) NAMES.DEFAULT_DOMAIN = corp.acxiom.net

Did you review metalink note 365428.1 ?
The Problem lies with Oracle Net configuration. If either of the following parameters are set to anything other
than the default of "accepted" ,DBCA cannot communicate with the ASM instance.
SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_SERVER = accepted
SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_CLIENT = accepted
The problem was with encryption type of "DES40".
After removing "DES40" from both SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_TYPES_CLIENT and
SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_TYPES_SERVER communication between DBCA and ASM was re-established.
The problem is that DES40 was specified as one of the encryption algorithms and it doesn't play well with the jdbc
drivers. Per sections 5.1.2 of the 10.2 ASO guide, DES40 is not supported for jdbc clients
Pasted below is the solution that it suggests..
SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_TYPES_CLIENT= (DES40, RC4_40, RC4_56, 3DES112, 3DES168, AES256)
SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_TYPES_SERVER= (DES40, RC4_40, RC4_56, 3DES112, 3DES168, AES256)
New settings that work:
SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_TYPES_CLIENT= (RC4_40, RC4_56, 3DES112, 3DES168, AES256)
SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_TYPES_SERVER= (RC4_40, RC4_56, 3DES112, 3DES168, AES256)

Folks,
I'm trying to create a database on my RAC cluster with ASM. This is on 10.2.0.3 and RHEL4 64bit. ASM is up and running on both nodes (only 2-node cluster) and I've got valid diskgroups in each. Checking crsstat it shows all services are up, as in ASM, LISTENER, gsd, ons, vip on both nodes.
Now for creating a database. I thought dbca would be the way. But in the process, I believe step 7, I'm asked for the storage to use. I pick ASM, then "next". At this point I get the message: "DBCA could not startup the ASM instance configured on this node. To proceed with database creation using ASM you ...".
I can't figure out why dbca can't see my ASM instance. I've tried setting ORACLE_SID=, ORACLE_SID=+ASM, ORACLE_SID=+ASM1 (local instance on this server of ASM), all run out of $ORACLE_HOME/bin, not $ORA_ASM_HOME/bin. Each try gives me the same error.
Any clue how to get dbca see your existing ASM instances? Is there any way to find out what exactly is failing behind the scenes? I've set tracing for dbca (-DTRACING.ENABLED=true -DTRACING.LEVEL=2 in the last line of dbca), but that doesn't output anything after first starting up.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks.
Dave
