===========
Cause
Database is configured with listener port 1561 while ASM instance is configured with port 1521.
In this case, ASM instance is not registered with database listener running on 1561 port.
Database listener:
===========
Listening Endpoints Summary...
(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=racnode1)(PORT=1561)))
(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=192.168.1.1)(PORT=1561)))
Services Summary...
Service "orcl" has 2 instance(s).
Instance "orcl_1", status READY, has 1 handler(s) for this service...
The command completed successfully
ASM Listener:
=========
Listening Endpoints Summary...
(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=ipc)(KEY=LISTENER)))
(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=192.168.1,1)(PORT=1521)))
(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=192.168.1.2)(PORT=1521)))
Services Summary...
Service "+ASM" has 1 instance(s).
Instance "+ASM1", status READY, has 1 handler(s) for this service...
The command completed successfully
Solution
Register the ASM instances with the database listener:
alter system set local_listener='(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=racnode1)(PORT=1561))))' scope=both sid='+ASM1';
alter system set local_listener='(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=racnode2)(PORT=1561))))' scope=both sid='+ASM2';
NOTE: port numbers here are just for demonstration purposes.
