ORA-15028: ASM file 'string' not dropped; currently being accessed


Cause:


An attempt was made to drop an ASM file, but the file was being accessed by one or more clients and therefore could not be dropped.



Action:


Stop all clients that are using this file and retry the drop command. Query the V$ASM_CLIENT fixed view in an ASM instance or use ASMCMD LSOF to list active clients.
