Explanation:
MOUNT (link)
Specify MOUNT to mount the disk groups in the local Oracle ASM instance. Specify ALL
MOUNT to mount all disk groups specified in the ASM_DISKGROUPS initialization
parameter. File operations can only be performed when a disk group is mounted. If Oracle
ASM is running in a cluster or a standalone server managed by Oracle Restart, then the
MOUNT clause automatically brings the corresponding resource online.
RESTRICTED | NORMAL Use these clauses to determine the manner in which the disk
groups are mounted.
In the RESTRICTED mode, the disk group is mounted in single-instance exclusive mode. No
other Oracle ASM instance in the same cluster can mount that disk group. In this mode the
disk group is not usable by any Oracle ASM client.
In the NORMAL mode, the disk group is mounted in shared mode, so that other Oracle ASM
instances and clients can access the disk group. This is the default.
