12c Database : ASM Enhancements : Password files in ASM Disk group

ASM version 11.2 allowed ASM spfile to be placed in a disk group.

In 12c we can also put ASM password file in an ASM disk group.

Unlike ASM spfile, the access to the ASM password file is possible only after ASM startup and once the disk group containing the password is mounted.

The orapw utility now accepts ASM disk group as a password destination. The asmcmd has also been enhanced to allow ASM password management.

	Create ASM password file
	+ASM1 > orapwd asm=y file='+DG1' password='*******'

	Create database password file
	ASMCMD> pwcreate --dbuniquename racdb  +DATA *****

	Locate password file
	+ASM1 > crsctl stat res ora.racdb.db -f | grep PWFILE
	PWFILE=+DG1/Geek DBA12C/PASSWORD/pwracdb.464.327076728

-Thanks
