Cannot locate spfile on ASM

I'm new  to ASM.

I have a RAC with ASM.

I see that 1 of the 2 instances is down.

I connect to the machine O/S and I type:

export ORACLE_SID=instance2

sqlplus / as sysdba

     Connected to an idle instance.

SQL> startup;

ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters

ORA-01565: error in identifying file '+DATA/dbname/spfiledbname.ora'

ORA-17503: ksfdopn:2 Failed to open file +DATA/dbname/spfiledbname.ora

ORA-15056: additional error message

ORA-15173: entry 'spfiledbname.ora' does not exist in directory dbname

ORA-06512: at line 4

Then I connect to the healthy one and I see  that  spfile is +DATA/dbname/parameterfile/spfiledbname.ora

Howdy, Stranger!
