Hi Jeremy,
Even in a single instance installation, ASM needs to connect to
cssd. If that’s not running, you’ll get the 29701 when trying to start your
ASM instance. From memory, this runs from /etc/inittab, if you’re on Linux
(or, probably any other flavor of unix.)
On my RHEL box, I’ve got:
h1:35:respawn:/etc/init.d/init.cssd run >/dev/null
2>&1 </dev/null
in /etc/inittab, and it has to come before the ‘rc 3’ runlevel.

Subject: convert ASM to single-instance
anyone know how to convert ASM back to
single-instance? i've relinked with rac_off, removed the clusterware with
rootdelete.sh, triple-checked init+ASM.ora (no mention of cluster_database),
and rebooted for good measure - but every time I try to start ASM, I still
get this error:
SQL> startup
ORA-29701: unable to connect to Cluster Manager
couldn't find anything on metalink, in the docs, or on the
net... but maybe i've missed something?
