What should my AFD_diskstring be set to?

Hi all

Using Oracle 19.16 and Oracle Restart on Oracle Linux 8

I have a Production server and non-production server which are essentially identical in terms of disks provisioned and ASM Disk Groups across those disks.

However, on one server /etc/oracleafd.conf has afd_diskstring='/dev/sd*'

while on the other server /etc/oracleafd.conf has afd_diskstring='/dev/sd*,AFD:*'


My question is how do I determine what the diskstring SHOULD be set to so I can determine if it should be one of the following;

  1. afd_diskstring='/dev/sd*'
  2. afd_diskstring='AFD:*'
