Hello Oliver,

 

  The target is not to use raw devices, just block devices. I’ll try the udev way indicated by Clemens.

 

Thanks.

Hi,

did you add the devices to /etc/raw?

Jorge,
has the oracle user the right permission on the devices?

Are the device "clean"?

Go with a dd (with the oracle user) to make sure of both:

dd if=/dev/null of=your_device_here bs=4096k count=10

The easiest way to be able to access the devices is to add the oracle
user at the "disk" group.

Regards
Fabrizio

PS: ASM_DISKSTRING can be set before creating the ASM or even after.
You can always add the devices after the ASM instance is running.
