11GR2- ASM drop disk from diskgroup
Hello,
We have a production database running in 11GR2 RAC . We have 5 disks in diskgroup DATA. These disks were presented to ASM using multipath. Disk5 was recently added and due to some issue , the header is not updated correctly.
We are not having any issues as the disks are correctly show in ASM
However, our unix admin , wants the header to be consistent as other 4 headers. To rectify it , we need drop the disk and recreate /format it at unix level . My question is , what is the safe way to drop a disk without affecting data.
Diskgroup size : 1250 GB
Disk size -- 250 GB each
