Lisa:
I have been out of pocket and I am playing catch-up on this thread. If
I am misunderstanding what you 're trying to do, then please correct me.
However, it sounds like you 're trying to startup the ASM instance with
the LOCAL_LISTENER parameter set.
The ASM instance uses (based on my experience and the docs I have read)
a very limited subset of the standard INIT.ORA parameters. Very
limited. In fact, the following is basically all that is in mine:
If it doesn 't relate to the location of the dump files or isn 't an ASM
specific parameter then it probably won 't work. From the 10g Admin
Guide: "Of those initialization parameters intended for a database
instance, only a few are relevant to an ASM instance. "
