Redundancy Level      Minimum Number of Disks
External           1
Normal                2
High                3
If you only have a disk, means you will not be able to implement normal/high redundancy. In external redundancy ASM presumes the data duplication is taken care at a storage level (e.g. mirrored SAN etc.).
structure of normal redundancy & high redundancyRedundancy is actually a data duplication, so let say if a disk in a Disk Group1 fails, and there is a fail over Disk Group B, so ASM will continue operation.
Must read note for you..
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28301/asm002.htm#ADMQS12079
Extractions from the link..
Failure groups are used to determine which ASM disks to use for storing redundant copies of data. example, if 2-way mirroring is specified for a file, ASM automatically stores redundant copies of file extents in separate failure groups.

  • How do I define 2 disk groups for ocr and voting disks at the oracle grid infrastructure installation window

    Hello,
    It may sound too easy to someone but I need to ask it anyway.
    I am in the middle of building Oracle RAC 11.2.0.3 on Linux. I have 2 storage and I created three LUNs in each of storage so 6 LUNs in total look in both of servers. If I choose NORMAL as a redundancy level, is it right to choose my 6 disks those are created for OCR_VOTE at the grid installation? Or should I choose only 3 of them and configure mirroring at latter stage?
    The reason why I am asking this is that I didn't find any place to create asm disk group for ocr and voting disks at the oracle grid infrastructure installation window. In fact, I would to like to create two disk groups in which one of groups contains three disks those were brought from storage 1 and the second one contains rest three 3 disk that come from the last storage.
    I believe that you will understand the manner and help me on choosing proper way.
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    You have 2 Storage H/W.
    You will need to configure a Quorum ASMDisk to store a Voting Disk.
    Because if you lose 1/2 or more of all of your voting disks, then nodes get evicted from the cluster, or nodes kick themselves out of the cluster.
    You must have the odd number of voting disk (i.e 1,3 or 5)  one voting disk per ASM DISK, So 1 Storage will hold more voting disk than another storage.
    (e.g 3 Voting Disk - 2 voting stored in stg-A and 1 voting disk store in stg-B)
    If fail the storage that hold the major number of  Voting disk the whole cluster (all nodes) goes down. Does not matter if you have a other storage online.
    It will happen:

  • How many Disk do we store Flash back on?

    We used oracle 10G,
    we have archive logs 26G/day
    we think of flash back on.
    How many disk do we store flashback files?
    Please help us for informations, when we need oracle flashback?

    Are you asking about raid levels? If you are only copying your archive logs to one destination, then you should at least have your archivelog disk mirrored, if not a higher raid level like level 5. It would be advisable to archive to multiple locations. Remember, if you lose one of your logs before they can be backed up, you will lose data if you have to perform a recovery. The amount of disk space you would need would depend on how many archive logs you intend to keep available on disk. Also, are you using the flashback area for your rman backups? You would also need to have additional space for each of these backups you want to have available on disk. Remember, you can always backup archivelogs to tape and delete them.
    My general rule of thumb is that I like to only use up to 60% of a disk available for logfiles. This way if you have a large spike in DB use for a period of time you are not going to quickly run out of space. In this example if you generate 25G of archive and you want to keep 5 days worth, then you would generate 125G during this time period, I would probably want to have 200G of disk available to give you 60% normal usage.

  • Final Cut Studio 3 Upgrade P/N MB643Z/A  How many Disks?

    Hi! I have my Final Cut Studio  3 Upgrade disk set P/N MB643Z/A  SKU 8859092445284  for sale on ebay (300781404751), the auction closes in 3 hours,   I have 6 DVD disks. From my pictures I see I have one white  and 5  Black disks. I had a person tell me I am missing a disk, that there should be 7 disks in total. I hope someone can help me by confirming how many disks I should have and the title of each of them. Also, If I have one missing, do I have any chance of getting one from Apple? and how I would go about getting it? Thanks very much!

    There are 7 disks. 
    White one is FINAL CUT INSTALL DVD...this has all the apps.  THen the black ones are:

    Thanks. Was never able to figure out the conversion between KB and MB. The average file size is 5,600 KB. So how many disks to you think it will take.... 5,600KB x 480 songs = 2,688,000KB. Appreciate it!

    It depends on the uses you give to your computer, because the battery will have capacity for less time if you are using professional apps than using Safari. Theoretically, the MacBook Pro with Retina display battery should have capacity for 7 hours, but as I said, this will decrease depending on the apps

  • Installing Grid Infrastructure 11gR2 on a 2nodes cluster: device names req.

    Hello, I am trying to install Grid Infrastructure 11gR2 on 2 sun nodes (Solaris 10) in order to try the product. but I am finding an error on the second node. After installing the software on both nodes and executing root.sh in the first node, the second node is complaining about the device I have defined for OCR, voting and ASM (the easiest scenary, 1 diskgroup for OCR, voting and ASM with 1 disk ) :
    DiskGroup conf_dg creation failed with the following message:
    ORA-15018: diskgroup cannot be created
    ORA-15031: disk     specification '/dev/rdsk/c5t500601603CE02E8Ed20s0' matches no disks
    I have realised this device has not the same name on both nodes as boxes are different; the device name in the second system is
    c2t500601673CE02E8Ed20s0
    This is slice 0 of and EMC Clariion LUN. As this info is recorded at the crsconfig_params file in both nodes and is the same, should the device names be the same on the N nodes of a Clusterware cluster? How should I do to correct the installation of the second node?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Gurus,
    I have similar problems on very first node1, it cannot create the diskgroup when running the root.sh. here is my configuration
    two guest ldoms running sol 10 update10 on sparc t5120 and sharing iscsi Luns provided by third ldom ( created zfs volumes and set shareiscsi on)
    all the permissions are 777 on /dev/rdsk/c1t*d0s1 and ownership grid:oinstall.
    using solaris.sparc64_11gR2_grid.zip
    I have installed 11gr2 rac for x86 using similar configuration with all x86 machines. but I cannot install using sparc as mentioned above. I have put some logs here
    much appreciated for you help.
    Thanks.

    To identify the storage requirements for using Automatic Storage Management, you must determine the number of devices and the amount of free disk space that you require. To complete this task:
    1.     Determine whether you want to use Automatic Storage Management for Oracle Database files, recovery files, or both.
    Note:
    You do not have to use the same storage mechanism for , Oracle Database files, and recovery files. You can use a file system for one file type and Automatic Storage Management for the other.
    If you choose to enable automated backups and you do not have a shared file system available, then you must choose Automatic Storage Management for recovery file storage.
    If you plan to enable automated backups during the installation, then you can choose Automatic Storage Management as the storage mechanism for recovery files by specifying an Automatic Storage Management disk group for the fast recovery area. Depending on how you choose to create a database during the installation, you have the following options:
    o     If you select an installation method that runs Oracle Automatic Storage Management Configuration Assistant in interactive mode, then you can decide whether you want to use the same Automatic Storage Management disk group for database files and recovery files, or you can choose to use different disk groups for each file type. Ideally, you should create separate Automatic Storage Management disk groups for data files and for recovery files.
    The same choice is available to you if you use Oracle Database Configuration Assistant after the installation to create a database.
    o     If you select an installation type that runs Oracle Automatic Storage Management Configuration Assistant in silent or response file mode, then you must use the same Automatic Storage Management disk group for data files and recovery files.
    2.     Choose the Automatic Storage Management redundancy level that you want to use for each Automatic Storage Management disk group that you create.
    The redundancy level that you choose for the Automatic Storage Management disk group determines how Automatic Storage Management mirrors files in the disk group and determines the number of disks and amount of disk space that you require, as follows:
    o     External redundancy
    This option does not allow Automatic Storage Management to mirror the contents of the disk group. Oracle recommends that you select this redundancy level either when the disk group contains devices, such as RAID devices, that provide their own data protection or when the database does not require an uninterrupted access to data.
    o     Normal redundancy
    To optimize performance and reliability in a normal redundancy disk group, Automatic Storage Management uses two-way mirroring for data files and three-way mirroring for control files, by default. In addition, you can choose the mirroring characteristics for individual files in a disk group. Alternatively, you can use two-way mirroring or no mirroring.
    A normal redundancy disk group requires a minimum of two failure groups (or two disk devices) if you are using two-way mirroring. The effective disk space in a normal redundancy disk group is half the sum of the disk space in all of its devices.
    For most installations, Oracle recommends that you use normal redundancy disk groups.
    o     High redundancy
    The contents of the disk group are three-way mirrored by default. To create a disk group with high redundancy, you must specify at least three failure groups (a minimum of 3 devices).
    Although high-redundancy disk groups provide a high level of data protection, you must consider the higher cost of additional storage devices before deciding to use this redundancy level.
    3.     Determine the total amount of disk space that you require for the database files and recovery files.
    If an Automatic Storage Management instance is already running on the system, then you can use an existing disk group to meet these storage requirements. If necessary, you can add disks to an existing disk group during the installation.
    Use the following table to determine the minimum number of disks and the minimum disk space requirements for the installation:
    Redundancy Level     Minimum Number of Disks     Data Files     Recovery Files     Both File Types
    External     1     1.8 GB     3.6 GB     5.4 GB
    Normal     2     3.6 GB     7.2 GB     10.8 GB
    High     3     5.4 GB     10.8 GB     16.2 GB
    4.     Optionally, identify failure groups for the Automatic Storage Management disk group devices.
    If you intend to use a normal or high redundancy disk group, then you can further protect the database against hardware failure by associating a set of disk devices in a custom failure group. By default, each device comprises its failure group. However, if two disk devices in a normal redundancy disk group are attached to the same SCSI controller, then the disk group becomes unavailable if the controller fails. The controller in this example is a single point of failure.
    To avoid failures of this type, you can use two SCSI controllers, each with two disks, and define a failure group for the disks attached to each controller. This configuration would enable the disk group to tolerate the failure of one SCSI controller.
    Note:
    If you define custom failure groups, then you must specify a minimum of two failure groups for normal redundancy disk groups and three failure groups for high redundancy disk groups.
    5.     If you are sure that a suitable disk group does not exist on the system, then install or identify appropriate disk devices to add to a new disk group. Apply the following guidelines when identifying appropriate disk devices:
    o     The disk devices must be owned by the user performing the grid installation.
    o     All the devices in an Automatic Storage Management disk group should be the same size and have the same performance characteristics.
    o     Do not specify multiple partitions on a single physical disk as a disk group device. Automatic Storage Management expects each disk group device to be on a separate physical disk.
    o     Oracle does not recommend the use of a logical volume as a device in Automatic Storage Management because the logical volume is capable of hiding the physical disk architecture which prevents Automatic Storage Management from optimizing I/O across physical devices.

  • Disks don't show --- Solaris 10, Grid Infrastructure 11gR2 Install

    I am installing 11gR2 grid infrastructure on a standalone server. It is SPARC Solaris 10. Followed the documentation for preparing disk partitions for ASM. But after launching runInstaller, at step of "Create ASM disk group", no disk shows up. Therefore disk group cannot be created. And the installation cannot continue. Tried ORCL:* for Change Discovery Path. It did not work.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Hi.
    do you on a step at the installation of the ASM or is the ASM Instance installed and ready to use ?
    Check the asm_diskstring parameter in the pfile if the ASM can discover the drives correctly .
    Are you create a partition our ASM drives ?.
