Hi Murali,
I am trying to configure ASM with ASMLib I/O.

  • Oracle Standalone DB 11g installation with ASM on Windows 2008

    Hi Experts,
    I would like to install Oracle Database 11g R2 on Windows 2008 with ASM .
    Since I want to do it as a standalone database server , I did not confiugre any shared storage. I have a single disk on my machine with 1 TB space.
    There is a free space of 750 GB and want to use that space for ASM disks.
    Can someone guide me on how to configure ASM disks ?.

    Last month I did RAC installation where I need format raw devices using below commands :
    clean all
    create part ext
    create part log
    Is it not required for standalone DB installation with ASM ?
    Basically preparing disk for ASM on RAC or non RAC is the same

    I am able to create 4 logical raw devices (175GB) each. 2 for Data and 2 for DB flash. However I am not able to clean those raw devices with "clean all" command.

  • Asm configure for windows

    Hi All,
    I am using Oracle 11g with win xp as operating system.
    I have three partition for hardisk.
    c:\ is for windows and oracle and program files - Primary partition
    d:\ free space no file exists here but can see in windows explorer - logial drive partiton
    and one more partiton is there but I have made it unsed. it shows green color in computer management\disk management windows.
    so when check in windows explorer I find it had c: and d: drive only.
    I want to create oracle database with asm
    I click the DBCA and select configure automatic storage management and then
    click next
    step 2 asm diskgroup I find no groups there.
    so I click the create new button and then
    the next window says to add a disk group name
    I enter dsk1 as my disk group name
    I have to select member disk path. but there are no path I can find below.
    I tried with show all radio button but still there were no files.
    I select the stamp disk button and n window open
    I the n select add or change label and click next
    it shows windows with two paths and both of them a disable.
    I cannot select those path
    select the disk to be stamped. it shows partiton1 and partion2.
    I have loged in as admin on OS
    oracle csservice is started
    oracle asmservice is started
    Pls some one help me

    Hi, you say that
    +"it shows windows with two paths and both of them a disable.+
    +I cannot select those path+
    +select the disk to be stamped. it shows partiton1 and partion2."+
    Disable because have formatted these drive,delete these volumes and do not format then you will see these as enable,Then you can create ASM instance and diskgroups,finally you can create database using this disk groups.

    This is a thread that discusses your problem.
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/12a17fa5-ddab-4480-8973-1a13bfb2e8fd/need-more-than-16bit-color-depth-on-windows-xp-mode?forum=w7itprovirt
    Your app is probably calling for 32-bit color, and XP Mode with
    integration features doesn't support that.  There's 3 ways around it. 
    one, is to enable remote desktop in XP Mode and connect to the VM with
    remote desktop.
    2nd is to turn off the integration features and then you can set the XP
    Mode desktop to 1024x7687 and 32-bit color
    and 3rd, if you app supports 24-bit color, there's a registry hack to do
    it.  It's in the thread I posted above.

  • Create 10g Database with ASM on Windows Server 2003 x64

    I am running Windows 2003 Server Enterprise x64 on a Dell server and wish to install Oracle 10g 10.2 with ASM.
    First, I performed a software only install. Then, I created several raw partitions on each of two SATA2 disks, and created a disk group - DGROUP1 - using two partitions from each disk. So far so good.
    Next, I tried to use DBCA to create a general purpose database using ASM, and that is where the problem arose. I can use sqlplus to stop and start the ASM instance, but when I use DBCA to select ASM for storage I am asked for the SYS password for ASM. I enter it and get a message "Passwords cannot be verified because: Io exception: The network adapter could not establish the connection". If I ignore this I can go on to select my DGROUP1, but the installation ultimately fails due to "insufficient privileges".
    Can anyone please help?

    Hi Martin
    Thanks for the reply. I used ASMTOOLG to stamp the disks and then used DBCA and followed the description hereo create the disk group DGROUP1:
    http://www.databasejournal.com/features/oracle/article.php/3571371
    At one point, DBCA prompted me to run "localconfig add", which I did.
    If it is a missing password file that is the problem, is it possible to create one to put things right?

  • Installing Oracle 11gR2 Standard Edition on WINDOWS Server 2008R2 with ASM

    Hi,
    I want to setup Oracle 11g DB (11.2.0.2) Standard Edition on Windows Server 2008R2 x64 bit with ASM Instance. I would appreciate if you could suggest me with the following little but important questions.
    The following link from Oracle doesnt have 11.2.0.2 db version for windows x64 bit. Do a patch (which I think is a complete installation) is needed to install after installing 11.2.0.1? or I can directly install 11.2.0.2?
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/112010-win64soft-094461.html
    Secondly, I have no such experience regarding installing and setting up ASM Instance on windows. How many disks or etc is needed for ASM (as ASM disks). One of the admin guy said, he has 6 disks (2 for OS and 6 you can use for Oracle or ASM so so). Could you please suggest, how should I divide the disk partitions of what should I say no idea :(
    Also, do ASM instance (diskgroups,disks) should be setup before creating DB (through dbca?)
    I was thinking like:
    - Installing Oracle software
    - Creating ASM disks,diskgroups,instance,etc
    - Creating DB (using dbca?), isnt' it?
    Bundle of thanks in advance.

  • ASM configuration with ASM-Lib

    I configured ASM on raw device.But i want to learn How to configure ASM with ASM-Lib. Any notes...

    Take a look at section

    of the Oracle® Database Installation Guide

  • 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,

  • New browser window with javascript

    Hello,
    I'm trying to accomplish something similar to what has been
    discussed in other threads (Jess Learnin, 9/30/2008, and another
    thread from back in '07). I've tried the advice given in these
    threads and have had no luck. I would like to create a button to
    call a new browser window that displays a URL of my choosing. I'd
    like to specify the size and attributes of the new window. I've
    created a small dummy tutorial in order to work on this feature.
    I'm using the "Execute Javascript" option when configuring
    the button. I include the following javascript:
    window.open('
    http://lib.berkeley.edu/BIOS/index.html',
    'myWindow','height=400, width=700, toolbar=no');
    I have the Captivate button context set to "Current". I have
    deselected "Continue Playing Project" (though I've tried it with
    that option selected as well).
    I've tried prefacing the script w/
    "javascript:window.open...", but no luck.
    I'm testing the file on a development server, rather than
    from a local copy. When I test in Firefox, my movie simply stops
    when I click the button, without opening a new window or loading a
    web page. When I test in IE7, the movie stops and I get a message,
    "Error on page"; still no new window.
    I do notice that I'm currently running Flash Player 10. I'm
    using Captivate 3. When I publish my file, my options only go up to
    Flash Player 9, which is what I have chosen. I don't know if this
    would make a difference.
    I have also tried altering the standard.js file in the manner
    that jbradley88 suggested in the 9/30/08 thread, and using the
    corresponding javascript in the button properties window, with
    similar unsuccessful results.
    I have tried running the movie on a different computer, in
    case some local setting was somehow mucking things up. I get
    nothing.
    Any suggestions? If anyone's willing to take a look, I can
    send along my small dummy .cp file that I've been working on.
    Thanks in advance.
    -Kelly

    Hi John,
    Here's the exact javascript that I currently have associated
    with the button:
    void(window.open('
    http://lib.berkeley.edu/BIOS/index.html',
    'myWindow','height=400, width=700, toolbar=no'));
    I've tried multiple permutations, including placing
    "javascript:" in front of the script, both with and without the
    void().
    The message in IE7 just says "Error on page". It's not a
    pop-up message; it's just the small message that appears at the
    bottom left of the browser window in IE7 when a page fails to load
    properly. The message doesn't appear until I click on the button
    that's supposed to call the javascript. There's a yellow
    exclamation point icon that appears next to the "Error on page"
    message. When I click on that I get:
    "Problems with this Web page might prevent it from being
    displayed properly or functioning properly. In the future, you can
    display this message by double-clicking the warning icon displayed
    in the status bar."
    It also displays a pointer to the error:
    Line: 1
    Char: 111
    Error: Syntax error
    Code: 0
    URL:
    http://library11.berkeley.edu/bios/kelly/Practice_demo.htm
    I looked at the source for the page as displayed by IE7 (have
    also looked at the .htm and .js files generated by Captivate) and
    haven't seen anything obvious, but I'm somewhat unschooled in such
    matters.
    If it would help to see what it does, you can view the demo
    at the URL above.
    Thx again,
    Kelly

  • When one window containing 1 tab is closed, the other window with several tabs closes also

    I have a set of web pages that reproducibly causes Firefox to act incorrectly. When Firefox is first started I click the "Restore previous desktop" button. Then I have 2 Firefox windows.

    The page has definitely finished being rendered (the refresh icon is displayed after the url "woot"), but the URL does not match the page. The URL displayed is not even in its proper form (i.e., www.woot.com).
    Remember that this page was RESTORED by Firefox from a previous session. It is as if I was on that tab at verizon, tried to go to woot.com by typing "woot" (which would of course bring up a search rather than the web page), DIDN'T PRESS ENTER, and Firefox is duplicating that entire sequence.

    With this exact set of windows and tabs, as restored by Firefox in a brand new instance of it, double-clicking the red Firefox in the top left corner of the 2nd window causes both windows to close.
    I wish I could save this configuration so I could always reproduce the error, but I need my computer :)

    You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox Profile Folder that store session data.
    Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

  • How to reuse the same disk (partition) for next ASM configuration?

    Hello All,
    I had successfully installed and configured ASM instance once, but I need to do a reinstallation and I would like to use the same disk (partition) as with previous ASM configuration.
    The disk path used was: /dev/rdsk/c1t3d0s7
    I have to regretfully admit that I may not have used the right ASM un-installation procedure. I ran installer and opted to de-install products. Consequently, I had removed ASM home. Now, when I running new ASM installation, everything goes fine until the screen where I should select disks for ASM configuration. Unfortunately, I see the /dev/rdsk/c1t3d0s7 with status > MEMBER < and I can't select it for the new ASM installation.
    I will really appreciate if anyone can let me know how to change status from MEMBER to CANDIDATE.
    Thank you for your time.
    DanielD

    Overwrite the first several MB of the partition with /dev/zero.
    So, use this command:
    # dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rdsk/c1t3d0s7 bs=1024k count=10
    That clears out the ASM header on the disk so that it looks like a clean disk again.
