1. By using SqlPlus
$ sqlplus / as sysasm SQL> show parameter spfile NAME TYPE VALUE ------ ------ ------------------------------------------------- spfile string +DATA/ASM/ASMPARAMETERFILE/registry.253.822856169 SQL>
2. By using ASMCMD find command
$ asmcmd find --type ASMPARAMETERFILE +DATA "*" +DATA/ASM/ASMPARAMETERFILE/REGISTRY.253.822856169
3. By using spget command
ASMCMD> spget +DATA/ASM/ASMPARAMETERFILE/REGISTRY.253.822856169
4. By using crsctl command
$ crsctl stat res ora.asm -p | egrep "ASM_DISKSTRING|SPFILE" ASM_DISKSTRING= SPFILE=+DATA/ASM/ASMPARAMETERFILE/registry.253.822856169
5. By using gpnp tool
Note: mostly used when ASM is not up.
[grid@racp1vm1 ~]$ gpnptool get -o- | xmllint --format - | grep SPFile Success. <orcl:ASM-Profile id="asm" DiscoveryString="" SPFile="+DATA/ASM/ASMPARAMETERFILE/registry.253.822856169" Mode="remote"/>
6. From alert.log
[grid@racp1vm1 ~]$ cat alert+ASM1.log | grep "parameter setting" Using parameter settings in server-side spfile +DATA/ASM/ASMPARAMETERFILE/registry.253.822856169
