ASMCMD> 

Answer:

Since 11gR2, Oracle ASM is installed as a part of Oracle Grid Infrastructure. When, you invoke ASMCMD you should set your ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID for ASM first and then invoke ASMCMD, This should work for you then.

In *nux systems:

For Example:

$ ORACLE_SID=+ASM
$ export ORACLE_SID
$ ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/grid
$ export ORACLE_HOME

Try again:

[cdccrs@node01 ~]$ asmcmd
ASMCMD> exit
[cdccrs@node01 ~]$ asmcmd -p
ASMCMD [+] >
