I want to share a situation that happened to me recently.
I closed my database running on ASM and also ASM instance successfully. I moved my ASM disks to a new server. After the installation Oracle software (Grid Infrastructure and RDBMS) on the new server, I got the following error when I tried to mount the DATA diskgroup.
ovmdbtest1.asyalocal.com.tr@09:52:05> asmcmd
ASMCMD> mount DATA
ORA-15032: not all alterations performed
ORA-15017: diskgroup “DATA” cannot be mounted
ORA-15063: ASM discovered an insufficient number of disks for diskgroup “DATA” (DBD ERROR: OCIStmtExecute)
ASMCMD>
Same as;
SQL> alter diskgroup DATA mount;
alter diskgroup DATA mount
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-15032: not all alterations performed
ORA-15017: diskgroup “DATA” cannot be mounted
ORA-15063: ASM discovered an insufficient number of disks for diskgroup “DATA”
I think, one or more of ASM disk’s header was corrupted. I checked my disks using ASMCA utility and it shows the status of 2 disks as “PROVISIONED”. Similarly, kfod utility also shows the status of 2 disks as “PROVISIONED”.

I closed ASM instance and checked the header information of damaged disk using kfed utility.

The header information was corrupted. kfed output for the disk affected shows 0xaa55 on kfdhdb.acdb.ub2spare field. I backed up the header information using dd command.
# dd if=/dev/raw/raw2 of=/tmp/DATA.dd bs=1M count=10
I got the allocation unit size of damaged disk.
# $GRID_HOME/bin/kfed read /dev/raw/raw2 | grep ausize
Now we can repair damaged header information.
# $GRID_HOME/bin/kfed repair /dev/raw/raw2 aus=1048576
I rechecked the header information of damaged disk using kfed utility. Now, kfed output for the disk affected shows 0x0000 on kfdhdb.acdb.ub2spare field

Now, we can mount DATA diskgroup successfully.
I recommend that you should add ASM disk header information backup to your current backup plan.
I did not take a backup of damaged ASM disk header information before. So how was the recovery process above? There is a second copy of ASM disk header information. kfed repairs the corrupted block from second copy. If our second copy of the header information was corrupted also then we could repair the header information using backup.
