    Database Instance unable to start

    Hi,

    I am trying to start up my database but I receive the following errors, any ideas why? I have posted the init.ora and the beginning of the database startup

    Code:
    SQL> startup pfile='/tmp/terry.ora'
    ORACLE instance started.

    Using parameter settings in server-side pfile /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/dbs/initSOCPROD1.ora

    My question is why does it attempt to use initSOCPROD1.ora and not the pfile I specified at startup?

    Many thanks

    Also when I enter the ASM utility something strange happens when I attempt to access the FRA disk - see below:-

    As you can see I can access the DAT & CRS disks but not the FRA disk - and this is where the controlfile resides

    Many thanks
