Unable to create an Oracle ASM database lower than 12.1.0.2

Unable to create an Oracle ASM database lower than 12.1.0.2.17814 PSU (12.1.2.12).

Hardware Models:

Oracle Database Appliance X6-2-HA, X5-2, X4-2, X3-2, and V1.

Workaround:

There is not a workaround. If you have Oracle Database 11.2 or 12.1 that is using Oracle Automatic Storage Management (Oracle ASM) and you want to upgrade to a higher release of Oracle Database, then you must be on at least Oracle Database Appliance 12.1.2.12.0 and Database Home 12.1.0.2.170814.

The upgrade path for Oracle Database 11.2 or 12.1 Oracle ASM is as follows:


  • If you are on Oracle Database Appliance version 12.1.2.6.0 or later, then upgrade to 12.1.2.12 or higher before upgrading your database.
  • If you are on Oracle Database Appliance version 12.1.2.5 or earlier, then upgrade to 12.1.2.6.0, and then upgrade again to 12.1.2.12 or higher before upgrading your database.


This issue is tracked with Oracle bug 21626377, 27682997, and 21780146. The issues are fixed in Oracle Database 12.1.0.2.170814.
