CHANGES
CAUSE
Possible causes:
1. Grid Infrastructure owner is not part of OSDBA group for the database thats being start up.
2. Grid Infrastructure owner doesn't have write permission to database dbs ($ORACLE_HOME/dbs) directory.
SOLUTION
1. As per documentation <Oracle Database Administrator's Guide 11g Release 2 (11.2) -> Configuring Oracle Restart -> Adding Components to the Oracle Restart Configuration>, Grid Infrastructure owner must be part of OSDBA group if the database need to be managed by srvctl.
To find out OSDBA group for RDBMS home, execute: $RDBMS_HOME/bin/osdbagrp
To find out whether grid user is already part of OSDBA group, execute: groups <grid>
Location for groups command is /usr/bin/groups on Linux, and /bin/groups on AIX, Solaris and hp-ux
2. If Grid Infrastructure owner is already part of OSDBA group and the issue still exist, add group write permission to $RDBMS_HOME/dbs directory; for example
cd $RDBMS_HOME
chmod g+w dbs
ls -ld dbs
