Server Administration :: How To Add Disk To ASM Diskgroup
Jun 7, 2011
Resize or add disk in ASM.
- The storage has partitions like:
- And now, the size of ASM disk was full
Because I've not ever done for adding disk to diskgroup.
Step 1- Format the storage, add partitions (I will create 4 partitions of 120gb, 1 partitions 60gb, 1 partitions 27gb).
Step 2- Add the rawdevice in /etc/sysconfig/rawdevices.In the picture here, I'll not just add rawdevice in /etc/sysconfig/rawdevices. So I'll do:
add lines in /etc/sysconfig/rawdevices
/dev/raw/raw7 /dev/cciss/c0d1p9
/dev/raw/raw8 /dev/cciss/c0d1p10
/dev/raw/raw9 /dev/cciss/c0d1p11
/dev/raw/raw10 /dev/cciss/c0d1p12
[code]....
how to do continue after step 5.

I Configured an ASM instance and a disk group with two disk for normal redundancy.
> Here .. each disk is 2gb
The disk group has two disks...
SQL> select group_number, name, type, total_mb, free_mb
2 from v$asm_diskgroup;
GROUP_NUMBER NAME TYPE TOTAL_MB FREE_MB
------------ ------------------------------ ------ ---------- ----------
1 DATA NORMAL 4000 3898
as the group has two way mirroring (Normal redundancy) How much data (2 GB or 4 GB) can i keep in the disk group? My conception is I can keep 2 GB data in the disk group... (as the disk group keeps every extent in another disk as mirror)

I've been ASM quite a while. I've two diskgroups extdg and nordg which are of external and normal redundancy respectively. Total diskgroup size is 9G, usuable space came down to 3mb when i tried to resize it to itz maximum. the value under usable column shows the same.
FYI... i've totally three disks in nordg, two in one failgroup and one in another.The disk sized equally 3g each.
Quote:
NAME TOTAL_MB FREE_MB USABLE_FILE_MB
------------------------------ ---------- ---------- --------------
EXTDG 2047 1995 1995
NORDG 9201 3073 3
The command i used to resize all disk to their max is Quote:SQL> alter diskgroup nordg resize all size 3067M;

My cluster have two node.Data diskgroup uses normal redundancy.Priamry disks are located in one storage.Fail group disks are located in another storage.When we close the failgroup disks' storage the 2nd instance restart.After automatically restarted everything goes well.I want to know why does the 2nd instance restart?Is it normal?

I have an Oracle database 11.1.0.6 with ASM storage.
SQL> select * from v$version;

TNS for Solaris: Version 11.1.0.6.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 11.1.0.6.0 - Production
There is a disk group named +FRA which has only 1 disk (call it disk 0 for later references).
+FRA disk group is in type of EXTERNAL redundancy
I'd like to add another disk to +FRA disk group and copy all files stored in disk 0 to the new disk (call it disk 1 for ex.), then take off disk 0 (not use for +FRA disk group any more).
Expected result: there is only one disk 1 left in the +FRA disk group, with all the data from disk 0 and keep their original file names

I'm new on 11g, due to my limit storage with mounted internal disk, so I think, may I can store archivelog in ASM without FRA? However, I did not find any document to verify.

What is best practice to change small disk D:? I am beginner with Oracle. 10g on W2008. 5 datafiles (all indexes,second data file, 2 undotabs)*.dbf (34;30;1;34;12 GB) is on D:. Part of tablespaces (1 data, 1 undo)has files on c:.
I.
1.Shutdown 2008 server.
2.Copy D: image with GHOST to USB, network.
3.Connect new D, create RAID.
4.Restore image to D.
5.Start 2008 server.
II.
1.Stop application.
2.CONNECT AS SYSDBA
3.SHUTDOWN NORMAL or (IMMEDIATE)?
4.Copy files *.dbf at OS level from d: to ... USB disk, network.
5.Shutdown 2008 server.
6.Change disks, create RAID in BIOS.
7.Start W2008.
Is Oracle at this moment in SHUTDOWN mode?
8.Copy back *.dbf to new D: (with directory structure).
9.STARTUP Oracle.

What should be our approach when we see the disk response time is bad for a particular tablespace in database.I heard a good disk response time should be on an average 10ms.

I am working on ASM as i am bit confused to decide ASM Disk strategies in production Environments. For Ex:-
1.Normal Redundancy ( Allows 2 Mirror Groups ) :-
I have created Normal_DG Diskgroup with 4 Disks
Disk1-------------------
Disk2 ------- |
|--->FG2 ----> FG1
Disk3 ------- |
Disk4-------------------
According to my understanding , if Disk1 Fails Disk4 facilitates normal operations. When there is space crunch it operates in reduced redundancy . Am i right ?
2.I have got 4 Disks in one group (i.e from Disk1 To Disk4 ) i have not defined any failure group and as per my understanding all disks will be added to its own failure group without mirroring and striping.

I was setting up disks groups and I accidentally created one group (DATA) with "NORMAL" redundancy but wanted it to be "EXTERNAL". I tried using asmca to remove disks from the group, drop the group, change the redundancy..... All of this failed because there was an spfile on the disk group.
I finally got it to work with using this procedure:
sqlplus '/ as sysasm'
SQL*Plus: Release 11.2.0.3.0 Production on Thu Apr 5 08:58:19 2012
Copyright (c) 1982, 2011, Oracle. All rights reserved.
SQL> drop diskgroup DATA;
drop diskgroup DATA
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-15039: diskgroup not dropped
ORA-15053: diskgroup "DATA" contains existing files
[code]....
In summary, I am not sure why changing the redundancy would be so difficult if there is data on the disk group.

essentially create data fragmentation within the datafile resulting in the db having lots more space to write into but not actually freeing space, even if you shrink the file it doesnt free space or do a reorg?
We have as an example a DB with 2 billion rows of data in 1 table, no partioning just one large table.
We have worked out that we can probably delete 1 billion rows or even better only keep a rolling 3 month window of data.
What would be the suggestion on deleting this data and reclaiming the disk space to actually see additional disk space made available at the os level.
deleting the data and reclaiming the space.
Through reading it looks like it might be something like, delete, creating new table space partitions from this data. This in theory would create new a tablespace in newly created data files which would result in the data being reorganised and taking up less physical space and when completed you point to the newly created partitions and drop the old tables.

I have 2 servers both having windows server 2008 64 bit as operating system installed on both I need to install oracle clusterware 11g r1 on both servers with clustering on external storage. I have configured the network(private,public and virtual) for both servers and have started the installation.
In the installation of oracle I add both servers but then I reach to a point where they ask me for voting disk or ocr disk in the cluster configuration storage but no disk is present how can i create ocr disk or voting disk on windows server 2008? And the external storage should I buy a special type of storage that supports clustering to continue my work?

My understanding of DB_FILE_MULTIBLOCK_READ_COUNT parameter is that it affects only Full Table Scans and Fast Full Index Scans - all other disk retrieval is single block.If so, then maybe I'm reading this trace incorrectly:
select /*+ first_rows */ pk
from test_join_tgt
where pk >= 0
and rownum > 1
call count cpu elapsed disk query current rows
------- ------ -------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------
Parse 1 0.01 0.00 0 0 0 0
Execute 1 0.00 0.00 0 0 0 0
Fetch 1 21.48 27.77 22368 22134 0 0
------- ------ -------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------
total 3 21.49 27.78 22368 22134 0 0
[code]...
What the heck is going on with the Multi-block reads in the Range Scan?

We are using Oracle 10g and have 10 tablespaces defined for our Database which have 108 tables. Size of 108 tables is around 251 MB as seen during importing the dump. While creating these 10 tablespaces I used below parameters for allocation of space
SIZE 1M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 1M MAXSIZE 1M;
which set the initial space for 10 tablespaces to around 1032Kb each. Now my Question is after importing the dump , how the disk space for 10 tablespaces increases to 398 MB in total ?
Is there any relation of Tablespace disk space and Actual Data present in the tables ?

My context on our servers is the following one:
- one ASM instance
- X DB instances
- each DB instance uses 2 or more dedicated diskgroups from the ASM instance
- there is one diskgroup named FREEDISK that contains spare disks
On each DB instance you can see:
- the list and global parameters of all diskgroups using v$asm_diskgroup view
- the list and parameters of all disks the instance is using with v$asm_disk view
So my question is: how (if this is possible) to know the list of (spare) disks in FREE DISK disk group?

We have a Production Oracle 10g R2 RAC on HP-UX v2 IA64 servers.We have Two Disk Groups one for Archive (ARC_DISK - 100 GB) and other for Database(DATA_DISK - 1 TB]. We wanted to add more space to the DATA_DISK disk group.Unix admin configured 200 GB from SAN and changed the ownership of the Disk to oracle and permissions to 775 on 1st Node.I opended DBCA from 1st Node and was able to see the disk in 'Show Candidate'.
I added this disk to the DATA_DISK disk group and clicked OK but got ORA- error with some message like some operations could not be performed. I exited DBCA.We realized that we had forgotten to change the ownerhip and permission from the 2nd Node.Unix admin changed the ownership of the Disk to oracle and permissions to 775 on the 2nd Node.
I opened DBCA again from 1st Node and selected the DATA_DISK disk group but could not find the Disk in 'Show Candiate' open. I clicked on 'Show All' and this disk was shown with Header_Status - MEMBER but not allocated to DATA_DISKGROUP. When I clicked the 'Show Member' option, this disk is not shown for DATA_DISK disk group. I exited DBCA at this point.As this is a critcal Production database I didnt proceed any further and exited DBCA.
Now I need to add this Disk to the DATA_DISK disk group but not sure which option to select. I got one reply from another forum to run DBCA select the DATA_DISK Disk Group and then click 'Show All' and select this Disk (which already has MEMBER as Header Status) and select Force Option and click OK to continue.

I managed to upload images to a database server, resize them, copy to the application server and everything worked just fine - the Apex page successfully displayed images. Since last week, things have broken. This is how: there's a directory object which points to application server's directory:
SQL> select * from all_directories;
OWNER DIRECTORY_NAME DIRECTORY_PATH
------- ------------------------------ -----------------------------------
SYS SLIKE_4005_UPLOAD d:gisslike_4005_upload --> on a database server
SYS SLIKE_4005 \my-iasd$homegisslike_4005 --> on an application server
SQL>
I can use a directory located on a database server:
D:GISSlike_4005_upload>dir photo_resize.*
Volume in drive D is RAID
Volume Serial Number is 88F2-69D2
Directory of D:GISSlike_4005_upload
[code]....
How come it doesn't work? I was absent last week, database server was restarted for some reason (there were Windows' updates which required restarting). After that, all applications (lucky us, just two of them, but in multiple procedures/functions) return FALSE for UTL_FILE.FGETATTR.
We recreated directory objects, but that didn't work (UNC or not, no difference). I Googled quite a lot, read Metalink notes - nothing I did solved the problem.
what these OS updates were about; maybe they are not to be blamed at all. Both servers (database & application) run MS Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition Service Pack 2. In the meantime, a colleague developed a workaround (it uses UTL_HTTP) which works, but it is MUCH slower than the previous UTL_FILE.FGETATTR option.
Why don't we keep these images on the database server (instead of the application server)?I was told that Apache is incapable of accessing mapped network directories so we used what we could.

How can we check the I/O statistics on a ASM diskgroup?
Do we have any command which can be run @ sqlplus prompt after logging into the asm instance?
What steps can we take to increase the Read speed and the write speed on the ASM diskgroup.

The ASM Diskgroup DATA is dismounted automatically. I can mount the DATA Diskgroup again, but again is dismounted.
The RDBMS instance (XA21) is started along 5 minutes and then is shutdown, until I mount the diskgroup with problems, again

My exadata quarter rack machine has two asm diskgroups, DATA1 with 5TB and RECO with 3TB. I'd like to resize RECO to 1TB and DATA1 to 7TB.
I know ALTER DISKGROUP RESIZE command, but my question is about resize RECO volume from 3 to 1 TB: is it supported by Oracle?? Let me know risks /issues with this resize?

A am new in RAC configuration.I configuring RAC with ASM diskgroup with the external redundency. So now i am facing problem to mount the ASM diskgroup. I am giving the the RAC configuration description below.
1. using two node rac1 and rac2
2. asm disk configuration 3 drive
/dev/raw/raw1
/dev/raw/raw2
/dev/raw/raw3
on both node
3. and i am using vmware to configure the both node asmdisk group
after configuring the os level and oracle clustring , i run dbca to configure asm disk group..so in the create disk screen i have found my previous create 3 disks
/dev/raw/raw1
/dev/raw/raw2
/dev/raw/raw3
so first two disks
/dev/raw/raw1
/dev/raw/raw2
i named it "dg1" then press ok , when i pressed ok a warring is appear that is "could not mount the diskgroup on remote node on rac2 using the connection service rac2:1521:+ASM2. Ensure that the listener is running on this node and the asm instance is registred to the listener. Receive the following error:
ORA-15032 : not all alterations performed
ORA-15063 : ASM discovered insufficient number of disk for diskgroup "DG1"
as the same way i create another diskgroup "fg" for flash recovery area using disk /dev/raw/raw3
so after creating the two diskgroup i saw the two diskgroup is appere in the "diskgroup appere screen" an saw that only one diskgroup is mounted but not second node i.e. rac2 diskgroup is not mounted . What should i do no .

I added a new disk to a diskgroup. It starts to rebalance. However, I plan to drop the diskgroup anyhow and recreate it since I want to restore a database to it.(I shouldn't have added the new disk beforehand, my mistake) So now it's rebalancing and may take some hours.Can I drop the diskgroup now?I think there is no way to stop the rebalance?
