Creating Oracle ASM Instances with ASMCA

Oracle ASM Configuration Assistant enables you to create an Oracle ASM instance if an Oracle ASM instance is not found on the host, as shown in Figure 9-1.

On the Create ASM page, you enter the SYS password for the administrator of the Oracle ASM instance and the password for the ASMSNMP user that can monitor this Oracle ASM instance. ASMSNMP is a less privileged user that is primarily used to monitor Oracle ASM instances.
