Server Administration :: Creating ASM Instance Using DBCA / ORA-01012 Not Logged On

create an ASM (Automatic Storage Management) instance using dbca. At first try I mistakenly skipped the part where I click on ASM Parameters to add /dev/raw/raw* as my asm_diskstring so it created an ASM instance. When I get to the next page ASM Disk Groups, I selected Create New and I did not have the desired display, because of the step I missed.

I went back to do some cleaning up as follows:

1) Edit the oratab file to remove the ASM entry

2) backed up these files by renaming to old-<filename>
old-ab_+ASM.dat
old-hc_+ASM.dat
old-lk+ASM
old-orapw+ASM
old-spfile2+ASM.ora

3) killed the following processes (kill -9):

oracle 1590 1 0 22:52 ? 00:00:00 asm_pmon_+ASM
oracle 1592 1 0 22:52 ? 00:00:00 asm_psp0_+ASM
oracle 1594 1 0 22:52 ? 00:00:00 asm_mman_+ASM
oracle 1596 1 0 22:52 ? 00:00:00 asm_dbw0_+ASM
oracle 1598 1 0 22:52 ? 00:00:00 asm_lgwr_+ASM

[code]....

4) Run the following as root:

/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin/localconfig delete

5) Restarted the database

Now when I try to go through the steps to create an ASM instance, at the point after I enter my ASM Parameters, I get the following prompt:

"DBCA will now create and start the ASM instance. After the ASM instance is started you can create the diskgroups to be used as storage for your database."

I click OK. Then I get the error message:

ORA-01012 not logged on
