ORA-59616

Use the FOR PLUGGABLE DATABASE clause to drop the Oracle ASM file group

Cause

The operation requires the name of the database or pluggable database associated with the Oracle Automatic Storage Management (Oracle ASM) file group being dropped.


Action

Drop the Oracle ASM file group using the FOR DATABASE clause, if it is associated with a database, or the FOR PLUGGABLE DATABASE clause, if it is associated with a pluggable database. Alternatively, delete the files in the Oracle ASM file group or move them to another Oracle ASM file group using the ALTER DISKGROUP MOVE FILE TO FILEGROUP statement. Then, retry the operation. Query the V$ASM_FILEGROUP_FILE view in an Oracle ASM instance or use ASMCMD LSFG to list the files in the Oracle ASM file group.
