Please can you take a look at the way I have my omf parameters set, and the logfile members that were created when I added new groups:
risb> sho parameters db_create

db_create_online_log_dest_2          string      /log2/risb
db_create_online_log_dest_3          string      /log3/risb
db_create_online_log_dest_4          string
db_create_online_log_dest_5          string
risb> select * from v$logfile;

    GROUP# STATUS  TYPE    MEMBER                                                       IS_

Why am I getting only two members per group? I've just done the same test on another database (Windows Ent Edition), and I get three members, as expected:
orcl> sho parameters db_create

NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE

db_create_online_log_dest_2          string      c:\app\john\oradata\orcl
db_create_online_log_dest_3          string      c:\app\john\oradata\orcl
db_create_online_log_dest_4          string
db_create_online_log_dest_5          string
orcl> select * from v$logfile where group#=9;

    GROUP# STATUS  TYPE    MEMBER                                                        IS_

         9         ONLINE  C:\APP\JOHN\ORADATA\ORCL\ORCL\ONLINELOG\O1_MF_9_6WDXFTO4_.LOG NO

orcl>

Any insight gratefully received. I want to use OMF, and I want three memebrs per group.

See here I have configured for "db_create_ONLINE_LOG_dest_4"
But I have only 3 members created. Because this is OS specific.
Some operating systems have min value 1 ,Some OS supports 2(default value), 3 and other supports max number(5).

check your maxlogmembers parameter in your control file.and your max log members for your Operating System.
