ASM DOCUMANTATION:

1. Take a browser, connect to NAS server using following URL:

https://<NAS serverIP>:446
2. Create a volume of size 2GB of type iscsi on the NAS server.
3. Again go to Volume  Existing Volumes option and Edit our slice.
4. After Allow both nodes fallowing screen.
5. Once reboot all the nodes.
6. After the reboot, give “fdisk –l” and we can find a new device on our nodes.
7. Then make a partition using “fdisk” command.
8. After install ASM rpm on both nodes using this command:
[root@rac1 stage]# rpm -ivh oracleasmlib-2.0.2-1.i386.rpm
9. [root@rac2 init.d]# ./oracleasm enable
Writing Oracle ASM library driver configuration: [ OK ]
Scanning system for ASM disks: [ OK ]
10. [root@rac2 init.d]# ./oracleasm configure
Default user to own the driver interface []: oracle
Default group to own the driver interface []: dba
Start Oracle ASM library driver on boot (y/n) [y]:
Fix permissions of Oracle ASM disks on boot (y/n) [y]:
Writing Oracle ASM library driver configuration: [ OK ]
Scanning system for ASM disks: [ OK ]
11. [root@rac2 init.d]# ./oracleasm createdisk asmdisk /dev/sda1
Marking disk "/dev/sda1" as an ASM disk: [ OK ]
12. [root@rac2 init.d]# ./oracleasm listdisks
ASMDISK
13. [root@rac2 init.d]# ./oracleasm scandisks
Scanning system for ASM disks: [ OK ]
14. [root@rac1 init.d]# ./oracleasm enable
15. [root@rac1 init.d]# ./oracleasm configure
16. [root@rac1 init.d]# ./oracleasm listdisks
ASMDISK
17. [root@rac1 init.d]# ./oracleasm scandisks

Create directory structure on both nodes:

18. [root@rac1 init.d]# su – oracle
