groups used by the database instance. This
parameter must be set only for the ASM database
instance package.
NOTE: For ASM instance package, no value must be
set for this parameter.
ASM_VOLUME_GROUP: This parameter gives the list of volume groups
used in the disk groups for the ASM database
instance.
This parameter must be set only for the ASM
database instance package.

This parameter must be set for both ASM

and ASM database instance packages.
ASM_SID: The ASM session name. This uniquely identifies
an ASM instance. This parameter must be set
for both the ASM and the ASM database instance
packages. This parameter is set to "oracle" by
default.
PFILE: Oracle database/ASM parameter file. If not
specified, Oracle picks this up from the
Oracle configuration directory $ORACLE_HOME/dbs

This parameter when configured overrides the

SPFILE
are present and this parameter is not

then the Oracle scripts will make use of PFILE
as
the parameter file. To make use of SPFILE in
the
scripts, do not configure this parameter and
remove
the default PFILE from its default location.
This
parameter must be set for both the ASM and the
database instance packages.
