We are trying to restore one of our backed up Oracle Databases via Veeam to a new server via Oracle Explorer. On this server we already have Oracle installed exactly the same as the server the restore is coming from, including having ASM installed. There are currently 4 other instances already running on this server that the restore is going to.
We get to the step where it is trying to restore, but ends with following:

My understanding is that ASMlib is a requirement for ASM support on Linux with the current v9 B&R release. Even after installing ASMlib I had some problems with a very similar configuration (CentOS 5 + Oracle/ASM 11.2.0.4) because the disk were taking a few seconds to appear after being attached and renamedg was being run almost immediately before asmlib had mapped them. I ended up creating a little wrapper script to add a short sleep before the renamedg script. Not sure if you're seeing the same issue as well, but without ASMlib I'm not sure if it's going to work either way.
