ASMCMD-8016: copy source '+RECO/coco/onlinelog/group_1.404.1160991039' and target '+reco/cocoprim/onlinelog/group_1.404.1160991039' failed
ORA-15056: additional error message
ORA-15046: ASM file name '+reco/cocoprim/onlinelog/group_1.404.1160991039' is not in single-file creation form
ORA-06512: at "SYS.X$DBMS_DISKGROUP", line 415
ORA-06512: at line 3 (DBD ERROR: OCIStmtExecute)

CAUSE

The above cp command failed due to the ASM file name was not in a form that can be used to create an single file, here the file name should not contain the file number/incarnation.

SOLUTION

To overcome this issue, remove the number/incarnation from the file and copy as shown below:

ASMCMD> cp +RECO/coco/onlinelog/group_1.404.1160991039 +reco/cocoprim/onlinelog/group_stby_01
copying +RECO/coco/onlinelog/group_1.404.1160991039 -> +reco/cocoprim/onlinelog/group_stby_01
