Enabling the clustering daemon for ASM-managed database

If your database is ASM-managed, then you must make sure that the Oracle clustering daemon is enabled in each node of the cluster. If the CSSD is not enabled, perform the following procedure.

To enable the clustering daemon for ASM-managed database

  1. Log in as superuser.
  2. Run the following command to configure and start the clustering daemon.

    For Oracle 10gR2 and 11gR1:

    # $ORACLE_HOME/bin/localconfig add

    For Oracle 11gR2 or 12c:

    # $GRID_HOME/bin/crsctl start resource ora.cssd
  3. Make sure the node has only one Oracle CSSD process running.
