IS disk partition madatory when using AFD?

Hi Gurus,

I'm planning to use AFD in my newly installed db (RHEL 7.6 , Oracle 19c 19.7)

I noticed that my reference documents :

  1. a PDF whitepaper from MOS:

"How to install ASM Filter Driver in a Linux Environment without having Previously Installed ASMLIB

2. an reference document (which I forgot where it came from )

"DEPLOYING ORACLE RAC DATABASE 12CRELEASE 2 ON RED HAT ENTERPRISELINUX 7"

in both document, a partition will be made on an disk , then udev rules will be applied on the newly created partition. after that afd_label this partition, eg:

in udev rules:

KERNEL=="dm-*",ENV{DM_UUID}=="part1-mpath-xxx",OWNER="grid",GROUP="asmadmin",MODE="0660" <<-- partition UUID

Howdy, Stranger!
