Most of the times, when everything else fails we turn to setting ASM_DISKSTRING as '/dev/oracleasm/disks/*' and it is almost always guaranteed to work. But this way we know that the ASM Library is not used at all and disk discovery happens outside the Library. Not a good thing. This can be confirmed using kfod (kfod asm_diskstring=ORCL:* disks=all) . So, what should you tinker with then to use the ASM Lib rather than the SYSTEM library, as shown by the LIBRARY field of v$asm_disk? When doing a migration, you may also get a HEADER_STATUS=UNKNOWN and the errors ORA-15032, ORA-15063 and ORA-15186.
Well, if you are using multipathing s/w, you got to let the disk discovery use just the pseudo-devices and not any of the many single devices (thru' many I/O paths) that form a single pseudo device. If you are using EMC with PowerPath, set it to emcpower. If you are using NetApp with DeviceMapper, set it to dm.
