How to add diskgroup in ASM on linux

Hi All,
I have installed oracle 10.2.0.4 through Oracle VM- template. I install this template on OEL 5 (oracle enterprise linux 5) update 2.
10.2.0.4 template is readily avaible which I just extract and run. It install 10.2.0.4 with ASM for single instance.
Now, I want to add more diskgroup as by default this template created two diskgroup in ASM, but when to go for path of that diskgroup it will showing only: ORCL:VOL1 as a "path"
query:
select path,redundancy,total_mb,free_mb,failgroup from v$asm_disk where mount_status='CACHED' and header_status='MEMBER' and mode_status='ONLINE' and state='NORMAL' order by path ;
PATH          REDUNDA          TOTAL_MB FREE_MB FAILGROUP
ORCL:VOL1     UNKNOWN 7506 5593      VOL1
ORCL:VOL2     UNKNOWN 7491 5578      VOL2
how can I find on which physical path this diskgroup is created liek "/dev/xvd"...or something like this???
can any one suggest me how to add new diskgroup... I can't use GUI becuase its disable.

  • How to add and remove storage from ASM at the same time?

    Scenario:
    I want to drop some disks from asm
    1- Add disk to asm -----> rebalance
    2- drop disk from asm ----> rebalance
    Is there anyway to make this process faster instead of going to rebalancing twice?

    I think you could try something like this.....
    Add with a power limit of zero and then drop the disks with a powerlimit of 11.
    alter system set ASM_POWER_LIMIT=0;
    select * from v$asm_operation;
    alter diskgroup DBFILE01_GRP
    add disk 'ORCL:DB0009', 'ORCL:DB0010', 'ORCL:DB0011', 'ORCL:DB0012';
    alter diskgroup DBFILE01_GRP drop disk DB0001, DB0002, DB0003, DB0004;
    alter diskgroup DBFILE01_GRP rebalance power 11;
    select * from v$asm_operation;

    If you use extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) like <i>Adblock Plus</i> or <i>NoScript</i> or <i>Flash Block</i> that can block content then make sure that such extensions aren't blocking content.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

    Moosey_Linux wrote:i´m trying to learn how to build my own custom kernel
    Reason enough IMO. But anyway... you refer to the Traditional build method in the wiki, but is it possible you didn't really read it? Or maybe you only skimmed it? Did you run make menuconfig? Did you try to build everything in instead of using modules? That mkinitcpio output suggests that you did.
    As suggested there for first-timers, it's a good idea to start with a kernel configuration that is known to work - the Arch config is the obvious choice, but there are other sources e.g. http://kernel-seeds.org/ .

  • How to add a system into Solution Manager directory.

    Hi!
    Can anybody tell me how to add a system into Solution Manager directory before generating license key for ECC installation .
    Also,
    How to connect the XI in same box with SolMan and ECC in defferent server to SolMan 3.2 .
    I am going to install SolMan and than XI in and box and after that ECC in a seperate box.
    AM I right?
    regards,
    Pratip Bhattacharyya

    Hi Bratip Bhattacharyya,
    SolMan 3.2 needs SLD only for automatic data gathering of the sap landscape; you can choose between SLD and LIS in transaction SMSY_SETUP (which simply uses the TMS-domain controllers for information gathering).
    XI needs SLD, but XI needs also a netweaver04 (s) system (Abap WAS 6.40). SolMan 3.2 isn't a netweaver04 system (Abap WAS 6.20). So you have to install XI as an own central instance (Abap + Java) on the same windows server, if you like. In this case you have to install for XI an own SLD. Different SLDs can create bridges between themselves. Please look at the SLD configuration guide (quicklink /netweaver -> installation guides).
    But don't ask me how to install two sap systems on one server on windows (on Linux it's easy I have done so); basically it will have an own SID and own "service" numbers (which means own tcp port numbers).
    If you can't dedicate to XI an own server, it's only a question of hardware sizing. For the different combinations of netweaver components you should study the master guide for netweawer.
    Bye

    I would actually question whether or not more disks increase the risk of a disk failure. One disk can break as likely as one of two of more disks.
    Simple stats.  Buying 2 lottery tickets instead of one, gives you 2 chances to win the lottery prize. Not 1. Even though the odds of winning per ticket remains unchanged.
    2 disks buy you 2 tickets in The-Drive-Failure lottery.
    Back in the 90's, BT (British Telecom) had a 80+ node OPS cluster build with Pyramid MPP hardware. They had a dedicated store of scsi disks for replacing failed disks - as there were disk failure fairly often due to the number of disks. (a Pryamid MPP chassis looked like a Xmas tree with all the scsi drive LEDs, and BT had several)
    In my experience - one should rather expect a drive failure sooner, than later. And have some kind of contingency plan in place to recover from the failure.
    The use of symbolic links instead of striping the filesystem protects from the complete loss of the enchilada if a volume member fails, but it does not reduce the risk of loosing data.
    I would rather buy a single ticket for the drive failure lottery for a root drive, than 2 tickets in this case. And using symbolic links to "offload" non-critical files to the 2nd drive means that its lottery ticket prize is not a non-bootable server due to a toasted root drive.

  • How to add [Thunderbird] Attachments content type action to list

    Thunderbird, Linux. Attachments. There is only one entry: Microsoft word documents. I want to add
    other attachment types, like .jpg (open with Gwenview) and so on, but I don't know how to add anything
    to the list.
    When I snapped on the "Post Question" box below this, it added a "troubleshooter" which was no help whatsoever.
    Please just tell me in English how to do this.
    Thanx.

    WPQ2FormCtx.ItemContentTypeId will give the content type ID of the item in each of the forms newform.aspx, ediform.aspx and displayform.aspx. You can also use WPQ2FormCtx.ItemContentTypeName, if you want to compare name instead of Id. Here is a JQuery
    code to hide fields in the forms:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
        if(WPQ2FormCtx.ItemContentTypeId == '0x010400C36D463A4788AD4AAF5F85C02DA29F8E') {
        $("h3.ms-standardheader:contains('Body')").closest("tr").hide();
    </script>
    Note that this script assumes the JQuery is already referenced in the site. You can place above code in Script Editor web part in each of the forms. 
    Also, beware that this way you can hide the field from UI, but user can still open the page source and find the actual information in the hidden field. 
    If the requirement is to completely hide the field data then you will need to set the field properties like showInEditForm, showInDisplayForm and showInNewForm

  • How to create database with ASM

    HI
    How to create database with ASM?
    I install vmware workstation on window XP .On virtual machine install Linux 5 enterprise (Oracle) install.
    I install oracle DB software only. Also make 3 disk for ASM .
    1 -- When I want to install oracle DB with ASM . In this process candidate disks not show . Why?
    How I can see disks ..
    so I simple install oracle DB software only.
    2 -- Now I want to create database with ASM by DBCA .
    What process I will follow ?
    Please guide me
    Thanks

    Hi
    Steps to create database with ASM.
    1.Install oracle binary with active CRS(For single node installation CRS is activated when you run root.sh) .
    2.Create disk without file ssytem.
    3.Assign disk to raw .
    4.Change owner and permission to raw devices.
    5.Configure ASM manually or USing DBCA.
    Manually ASM Configuration.
    a.Create initialization parameter file and password file.
    b.Mandatory parameter is "instance_type=asm" as per your need configure rest of parameter like db_cache_size,large_pool_size,processes,remote_login_passwordfile,shared_pool_size etc..
    c.To discover disk configure "asm_diskstring=/dev/raw/raw*"
    Using DBCA to configure ASM.
    1.In storage type section choose ASM.It will ask for password of sysdba in 10g.
    2.ASM configuration window will open -> here it create disk group -> it shows all available ASM candidate disk automatical -> choose normal redundancy,external redundancy or high redundancy.
    ASM disk also can be conbfigured with ASMLIB .
    If ASM disk is configured you can start asm instance in nomount state and query to v$asm_disk to see all candidate disk.V$asm_disk only shows disk which is configured in asm_diskstrings.
    Hope this will help U,

  • How to install Java in ASUS EeePC Linux OS?

    Who knows how to install a Java to a Linux OS in ASUS EeePC? I purchased an EeePC 4GB Surf for my programming subjects. But then, I couldn't use the Eclipse if I don't have Java installed on the pc. Do you know how to put Java in a ASUS EeePC 4GB Surf Linux OS?

    Some programs like FrostWire will not work without Java being upgraded. To do this:
    1.
    Use the Synaptic Package manager to add the repository: deb http://geekconnection.org xandros4 main. If you have no clue what that means read Installing software on the EEE - quick beginner's guide on the wiki.
    2.
    After Synaptic has downloaded the files to update the repository; Scroll through the available items to locate xandros-sun-jre1.5; Mark it for installation; Click Apply.
    The approximate size of this installation of Java is 30Mb and it is reported in this thread on the forum that after this version of Java was installed FrostWire works.

  • How to add support for ULi M5263 10/100M Ethernet [SOLVED]

    It seems the more I'm on Arch, the more questions I have
    The 4th PC i'm installing Arch on is a athlon 64 3200 on Asrock 939 Dual Sata mobo with ULi M5263 10/100M Ethernet Controller.
    A post I've read before on a Linux related forum said one had to add ULi drivers (from ULi/Ali website) to the kernel, until mid-October when the same guy added that the module had been included to the kernel
    I installed Arch on the A64 box with latest kernel-2.6.13 from current repo, and it can't recognize the Ethernet controller yet.
    So I downloaded latest ULi's driver for Linux, who ask to
    Make sure your kernel version number is 2.6.x.
    Copy uli526x.c to /usr/src/linux-2.6.x/drivers/net/tulip/, and modify the
    following file in this directory. (Make a backup of them.)
    1.Kconfig.in
    2.Makefile
    add the following lines to Makefile.(refer to the Makefile we provide to you)
    # Makefile for the Linux "Tulip" family network device drivers.
    obj-$(CONFIG_PCMCIA_XIRTULIP) += xircom_tulip_cb.o
    obj-$(CONFIG_PCMCIA_XIRCOM) += xircom_cb.o
    obj-$(CONFIG_DM9102) += dmfe.o
    obj-$(CONFIG_WINBOND_840) += winbond-840.o
    obj-$(CONFIG_DE2104X) += de2104x.o
    obj-$(CONFIG_TULIP) += tulip.o
    obj-$(CONFIG_DE4X5) += de4x5.o
    obj-$(CONFIG_ULI526X) += uli526x.o
    # Declare multi-part drivers.
    tulip-objs := eeprom.o interrupt.o media.o
    timer.o tulip_core.o
    21142.o pnic.o pnic2.
    But I couldn't find where is that Makefile located :cry:
    What would you guys say the next step can be ?

    Thank you for the tip on stock & archck kernels 
    I'm mirroring Arch's current, extra & testing repositories on an external HDD (+ checked it before).

    Do you know why is that  :?:
    I'd like to know especially in the case I'd give archck kernel a try then will have to add ULi mudule to it
    (EDIT) Found some relevant hack to this problem at "Problem compiling ipsec-tools [SOLVED (kind of..)]".
    Here's what the guy did :
    I downloaded the source tarball (v0.5.1) and did a quick ./configure && make . Same error you had. But I have a custom build kernel and a full vanilla 2.6.11.7 source on my disk , so I tried to use that instead of the AL headers.
    Code:
    - I renamed the /usr/include/asm to asm-arch, same applies for /usr/include/linux
    - I linked the /usr/include/asm and linux to the kernel source (/usr/src/linux-2.6.11-7/include/asm and linux)
    - I created a link /usr/include/asm-generic which pointed to the kernel source dir as well ...../include/asm-generic )
    After that the software compiled beautifully Smile
    But it could be it will not work 100% but I didn't notice this when doing this in Slackware.
    After installing the software delete the links and rename the asm-arch and linux-arch back to their original names again.
    It is dirty but most of the times it worked for me Very Happy
    So I'll try his hack this evening if no one comes here and say there's some better (cleaner) way

  • How do you compensate for overscanning in linux?

    The virtual screen area is larger than the actual size, and the edges of the screen are off the display. In windows I was  able to fix this using the overscan compensation in the nvidia control panel, but that option isn't there is linux.

    I have this overscan problem as well.
    My configuration: main monitor DELL 1920x1200, second monitor - Panasonic Viera S1 TV connected via HDMI. Videocard - NVidia GeForce 210. I tried both nouveau and proprietary video drivers. And with both drivers my TV has overscan problem - some parts of the screen is outside of visible TV area.
    I googled and found this helpful article http://b.wardje.eu/2012/08/nvidia-linux-overscan.html I followed it and found that for proprietary driver I have to run
    $ nvidia-settings -a CurrentMetaMode="DFP-0: 1920x1200+0+0, DFP-1: 1920x1080+1920+0 { ViewPortOut=1820x1022+50+29 }"
    This works for me and now I want to make this fix permanent. I want to put it under /etc/X11 and I guess I need to add
    Option "metamodes" "DFP-0: 1920x1200+0+0, DFP-1: 1920x1080+1920+0 { ViewPortOut=1820x1022+50+29 }"
    to 'Section "Device"'. But do not have such section for NVidia anywhere under /etc/X11/
    $ ls -R /etc/X11/
    /etc/X11/:
    twm xinit xorg.conf.d
    /etc/X11/twm:
    system.twmrc
    /etc/X11/xinit:
    xinitrc xinitrc.d xserverrc
    /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d:
    30-dbus 40-libcanberra-gtk-module pulseaudio xdg-user-dirs
    /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d:
    10-evdev.conf 10-quirks.conf
    So my question how to add the "metamodes" to X11 configuration? Is there better way to fix the overscan issue?
    Make a file named /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf and add the lines
    Section "Device"
    Option "metamodes" "DFP-0: 1920x1200+0+0, DFP-1: 1920x1080+1920+0 { ViewPortOut=1820x1022+50+29 }"
    EndSection
    and restart X.
