Switchover in 12c through Grid Control fails to startup mount former primary / new physical standby.

We are running Oracle 12.1.0.1 with Grid Control 12.1.0.1 on Windows 2012.  When we perform a switchover through grid control the former primary / new physical standby stays in idle state.  The logs indicate that the startup mount command receives a 3113 end of file on communication channel.  We can perform the switchover in dgmgrl and the former primary is started mount as it is supposed to.  We do have the static entries in the listener.or file for _DGMGRL, also for _DGB and _XPT (the latter two i'm not sure are still needed).

Has anyone else had any problems with this?

We are able to get around it simply by doing a startup mount on the new physical standby but it would be nice to figure out why the issue is and fix it so switchovers can be done solely in Grid Control like in 11g without having to go to command line.

Howdy, Stranger!
