NORMAL
what command does it pass on to all database instances that rely on the ASM instances disk groups?
When an ASM instance receives a SHUTDOWN NORMAL command, what command does
it pass on to all database instances that rely on the ASM instances disk groups?
D is the answer.
When an ASM instance shuts down with NORMAL, IMMEDIATE, or TRANSACTIONAL,
the same shutdown option is passed to all dependent instances and the ASM instance
waits for the dependent instances to shut down before shutting itself down. If an
ASM instance shuts down with ABORT, it immediately shuts down, the dependent
instances lose their connection to the ASM instance, and as a result, they shut down
with ABORT either before or after the ASM instance shuts down completely.
D is correct answer.

The following list describes the SHUTDOWN modes and describes the behavior of the ASM instance in each mode.
NORMAL Clause
ASM waits for any in-progress SQL to complete before performing an orderly dismount of all of the disk groups and shutting down the ASM instance. Before the instance is shut down, ASM waits for all of the currently connected users to disconnect from the instance. If any database instances are connected to the ASM instance, then the SHUTDOWN command returns an error and leaves the ASM instance running. NORMAL is the default shutdown mode.
R u sure? The option D is correct?
yes D is correct
