oracle asmlib

kmyoong

HI everyone,

     I have some doubt for using asmlib. I setup oracle rac using

     a. oracle grid 12.1

     b. oracle linux 7.2

     c. 2 server nodes

My node1

[[email protected] disks]# pwd

/dev/oracleasm/disks

[[email protected] disks]#

[[email protected] disks]# ls -ltra

total 0

drwxr-xr-x 1 root root         0 Aug 20 14:17 .

brw-rw---- 1 grid asmadmin 8, 49 Aug 20 14:17 VOL1

brw-rw---- 1 grid asmadmin 8, 81 Aug 20 14:17 VOL3

brw-rw---- 1 grid asmadmin 8, 97 Aug 20 14:17 VOL4

brw-rw---- 1 grid asmadmin 8, 65 Aug 20 14:17 VOL2

[[email protected] disks]# oracleasm querydisk /dev/sdd1

Device "/dev/sdd1" is marked an ASM disk with the label "VOL1"

[[email protected] disks]#

[[email protected] disks]# oracleasm querydisk /dev/sde1

Device "/dev/sde1" is marked an ASM disk with the label "VOL2"

[[email protected] disks]#

[[email protected] disks]# oracleasm querydisk /dev/sdf1

Device "/dev/sdf1" is marked an ASM disk with the label "VOL3"

[[email protected] disks]#

[[email protected] disks]# oracleasm querydisk /dev/sdg1

Device "/dev/sdg1" is marked an ASM disk with the label "VOL4"

My node2

[[email protected] disks]# pwd

/dev/oracleasm/disks

[[email protected] disks]# ls -ltra

1. is it normal why node1 tag /dev/sdd1 as VOL1 but node2 tag /dev/sde1 as VOL1 ?

2. actually VOL1 in both nodes are point to same physical disk although their device name not same?

2. if i want device name all same in all nodes, i have to use udev first then after that use asmlib to create asmdisk ?
