I was wrong. A colleague just told me that on his Windows installation, where the ASM instance is recognized by DBCA, a select on v$instance returns the instance name in lowercase. Notice for the service, spfile, ... uppercase is used. As I wrote on my linux installation it is uppercase... Anyway, it seams that this check (select on v$instance) doesn't provide useful information to find out what's going on.
