 Solution
2. Configure LUNs for ASM:
5. To make the disk available enter the following commands:
8. Ensure that the devices can be seen in /dev/mapper:
10. Setup the ASM parameter (ORACLEASM_SCANORDER), in the file for ASMLIB configuration, /etc/sysconfig/oracleasm, for forcing ASM to bind with the multipath devices


Before being able to configure udev to explicitly name devices, SCSI_ID (scsi_id(8)) should first be configured to return their device identifiers. SCSI commands are sent directly to the device via the SG_IO ioctl interface. Modify the /etc/scsi_id.config file - add or replace the 'option=-b' parameter/value pair (if exists) with 'option=-g', for example:

# cat /etc/scsi_id.config
vendor="ATA",options=-p 0x80
options=-g

1b. List all SCSI devices

Using the command SCSI_ID for each /block/a-h (for example, for /dev/sda we type scsi_id -g -s /block/sdb) generates the output:
SATA WD2502ABYS-23B7 WD-WCAT1H504691
SATA HUA721075KLA330 GTA260P8H8893E
360060e80045b2b0000005b2b000006c4
360060e80045b2b0000005b2b000006d8
360060e80045b2b0000005b2b00001007
360060e80045b2b0000005b2b00001679
360060e80045b2b0000005b2b0000163c

The two initial SCSI ids represent the local disks (/dev/sda and /dev/sdb). The remaining five represent the SCSI ids of the fibre channel attached LUNs. As a subset of the output string, scsi_id generates for the fibre LUNs matches the World Wide Identifier (WWID). A simple example would be a disk connected to two Fibre Channel ports. Should one controller, port or switch fail, the operating system can route I/O through the remaining controller transparently to the application, with no changes visible to the applications, other than perhaps incremental latency.

Important: If Real Application Clusters (RAC), Clusterware devices must be visible and accessible to all cluster nodes. Typically, cluster node operating systems need to be updated in order to see newly provisioned (or modified) devices on shared storage i.e. use '/sbin/partprobe ' or '/sbin/sfdisk -r ', etc., or simply reboot. Resolve any issues preventing cluster nodes from correctly seeing or accessing Clusterware devices before proceeding.

1c. Obtain Clusterware device unique SCSI identifiers:

Run the scsi_id(8) command against Clusterware devices from one cluster node to obtain their unique device identifiers. When running the scsi_id(8) command with the -s argument, the device path and name passed should be that relative to sysfs directory /sys/ i.e. /block/ when referring to /sys/block/. Record the unique SCSI identifiers of Clusterware devices - these are required later configuring multipathing, for example:


# for i in `cat /proc/partitions | awk {'print $4'} |grep sd`; do echo "### $i: `scsi_id -g -u -s /block/$i`"; done
...
### sdh: 360060e80045b2b0000005b2b0000163c
### sdh1:
### sdi: 360060e80045b2b0000005b2b0000163c
### sdi1:
...
### sdk: 360060e80045b2b0000005b2b00001679
### sdk1:
...
### sdm: 360060e80045b2b0000005b2b000006c4
### sdm1:
### sdn: 360060e80045b2b0000005b2b000006d8
### sdn1:
### sdo: 360060e80045b2b0000005b2b00001007
### sd01:
...
### sdz: 360060e80045b2b0000005b2b00001679
### sdz1:
From the output above, note that multiple devices share common SCSI identifiers. It should now be evident that devices such as /dev/sdh and /dev/sdi refer to the same shared storage device (LUN).

Another command can be used for listing the SCSI identifiers.
# ll /dev/disk/by-id/

1d. Run fdisk to create partitions for ASM disks:

(System Administrator's Task)

# fdisk -l

Disk /dev/sdi: 590.5 GB, 590565212160 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 71798 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdi1 1 130543 1048586616 83 Linux

MUST run fdisk on respective devices
fdisk /dev/?
Example:

# fdisk /dev/sdh
Command (m for help): n

Command action
e extended
p primary partition (1-4)
p

Partition number (1-4): 1

Using default value 1011

Command (m for help): w

The partition table has been altered!
Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table.
Syncing disks.

1e. Run the fdisk(8) and/or 'cat /proc/partitions' commands to ensure devices are visible. (If Real Application Clusters (RAC), Clusterware devices are visible on each node.) For example:

Note: At this point, if Real Application Clusters (RAC), each node may refer to the would-be Clusterware devices by different device file names. This is expected. Irrespective of which node the scsi_id command is run from, the value returned for a given device (LUN) should always be the same.

2. Configure LUNs for ASM:

(System Administrator's Task)

2a. Verify Multipath Devices:

Once multipathing has been configured and the multipathd service started, the multipathed devices should now be available.

For detailed multipathing commands, please refer to http://magazine.redhat.com/2008/07/17/tips-and-tricks-how-do-i-setup-device-mapper-multipathing-in-red-hat-enterprise-linux-4/

Update the kernel partition table with the new partition as follow (If Real Application Clusters (RAC), do on each node.):

# /sbin/partprobe


Then verify that all multipaths are active by executing:

# multipath -ll

Note: DM-Multipath provides a way of organizing the I/O paths logically, by creating a single multipath device on top of the underlying devices. Each device that comes from Hitachi Storage Sub-system (360060e80045b2b0000005b2b0000163c - WWID) requires two underlying physical devices. These two physical devices have to be partitioned (e.g. sdh1 and sdi1). Also, the WWID device has to be partitioned (e.g. 3360060e80045b2b0000005b2b0000163cp1). Also, the two physical devices are required to be the same size within that group, both non-partitioned and partitioned, and across nodes in Real Application Clusters (RAC).

In fact, various device names are created and used to refer to multipathed devices, for example:
# dmsetup ls | sort
360060e80045b2b0000005b2b000006b0 (253, 0)
360060e80045b2b0000005b2b000006b0p1 (253, 15)

3. Automatic Storage Management Library (ASMLIB) setup:

Note: For improved performance and easier administration, Oracle recommends that the Automatic Storage Management Library (ASMLIB) driver be used instead of raw devices to configure Automatic Storage Management disks.

3a. Verify that ASMLIB has not been installed already before installing (If Real Application Clusters (RAC), run this command on each node):

For example (as root):
# rpm -qa | grep oracleasm

i. Output if installed:

oracleasm-2.6.18-164.el5PAE-2.0.5-1.el5 -----&gt optional
oracleasm-2.6.18-164.el5debug-2.0.5-1.el5 -----&gt optional
oracleasm-2.6.18-164.el5-2.0.5-1.el5
oracleasmlib-2.0.4-1.el5
oracleasm-support-2.1.3-1.el5
oracleasm-2.6.18-164.el5xen-2.0.5-1.el5 -----&gt optional

ii. Output if not installed

package not installed

a. Install (if not installed). Install MUST match kernel version. (System Administrator's Task)

b. Verify kernel version:

# uname -r
2.6.18-164.el5PAE

c. Install the correct packages for the kernel version.

# rpm -i oracleasm-support-2.1.3-1.el5.i386.rpm
oracleasmlib-2.0.4-1.el5.i386.rpm
oracleasm-2.6.18-164.el5-2.0.5-1.el5.i386.rpm


Important: The version of the ASMLIB driver version has to be the same as the kernel version. Download the matching ASMLIB driver version from Oracle's website for ASMLIB drivers: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/linux/downloads/index-088143.html

3b. Check status (If Real Application Clusters (RAC), run this command on each node):

Failed example:
# /etc/init.d/oracleasm status
Checking if ASM is loaded: no
Checking if /dev/oracleasm is mounted: no

  • If status failed ("no" displayed), then:
Configuring the Oracle ASM library driver, for example:

# /etc/init.d/oracleasm configure (If RAC, run this command on all nodes)

Default user to own the driver interface []: grid -----&gt input Grid Infrastructure/ASM user name
Default group to own the driver interface []: asmadmin -----&gt input Grid Infrastructure/ASM group name
Start Oracle ASM library driver on boot (y/n) [n]: y
Scan for Oracle ASM disks on boot (y/n) [y]: y
Writing Oracle ASM library driver configuration: done
Initializing the Oracle ASMLib driver: [ OK ]
Scanning the system for Oracle ASMLib disks: [ OK ]


Note: This will configure the on-boot properties of the Oracle ASM library driver. The following questions will determine whether the driver is loaded on boot and what permissions it will have. The current values will be shown in brackets ('[]'). Hitting without typing an answer will keep that current value. Ctrl-C will abort.

3c. Check status again:

# /etc/init.d/oracleasm status
Checking if ASM is loaded: yes
Checking if /dev/oracleasm is mounted: yes

4. Create ASM diskgroups:


Important: The /dev/dm-n devices are internal to device-mapper-multipath and are non-persistent, so should not be used. The /dev/mpath/ devices are created for multipath devices to be visible together, however, may not be available during the early stages of the boot process, so should not typically be used. However, /dev/mapper/ devices are persistent and created early during boot...These are the only device names that should be used to access multipathed devices.

Note: Use /dev/mapper/[WWID]p1 as the device name for createdisk. If Real Application Clusters (RAC), do only on the first node. All commands done as root.

4a. Check prior to createdisk command:

# /etc/init.d/oracleasm querydisk DAT
Disk "DAT" does not exist or is not instantiated

# /etc/init.d/oracleasm querydisk /dev/mapper/360060e80045b2b0000005b2b0000163cp1
Device "/dev/mapper/360060e80045b2b0000005b2b0000163cp1" is not marked as an ASM disk

4b. After Check, do createdisk command:


# /etc/init.d/oracleasm createdisk DAT /dev/mapper/360060e80045b2b0000005b2b0000163cp1
Marking disk "/dev/mapper/360060e80045b2b0000005b2b0000163cp[ OK ] ASM disk


Note: If using multiple devices/disks within an ASM diskgroup, a good practice would be to use /etc/init.d/oracleasm createdisk with numbers appended to ASM alias name to create the members of the diskgroup for example:
# /etc/init.d/oracleasm createdisk DAT01 /dev/mapper/360060e80045b2b0000005b2b0000163cp1

5. To make the disk available enter the following commands:

Note: If Real Application Clusters (RAC), run the following two commands, in the order of first node, second node, etc. All commands done as root.

5a. Scan ASM disks:


# /etc/init.d/oracleasm scandisks

Scanning system for ASM disks: [ OK ]

5b. List ASM disks:


# /etc/init.d/oracleasm listdisks
DAT

6. Check the ASM diskgroups:

For example (as root) (If Real Application Clusters (RAC), do on each node.):

# /etc/init.d/oracleasm querydisk DAT
Disk "DAT" is a valid ASM disk on device [253, 20]

or

# /etc/init.d/oracleasm querydisk -d DAT
Disk "DAT" is a valid ASM disk on device [253, 20]

# /etc/init.d/oracleasm querydisk /dev/mapper/360060e80045b2b0000005b2b0000163cp1
Device "/dev/mapper/360060e80045b2b0000005b2b0000163cp1" is marked as an ASM disk


Note: The numbers, [253, 20], indicate major and minor numbers that correspond to the major and minor numbers in the file, /proc/partitions. These numbers can be used to validate the multipathed device by cross-referencing these numbers with the file, /proc/partitions, and the output of "multipath -ll" to ensure that the major and minor numbers match.

# cat /proc/partitions
major minor #blocks name
.
.
.
253 20 524281275 dm-20

7. Ensure that the allocated devices can be seen in /dev/mpath:

For example (as root) (f Real Application Clusters (RAC), do on each node.):

# cd /dev/mpath

# ls -l
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 May 8 10:32 360060e80045b2b0000005b2b0000163c -> ../dm-11
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 May 8 10:32 360060e80045b2b0000005b2b0000163cp1 -> ../dm-20
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 May 8 10:32 360060e80045b2b0000005b2b0000155a -> ../dm-14

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 May 8 10:32 360060e80045b2b0000005b2b00001584 -> ../dm-16
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 May 8 10:32 360060e80045b2b0000005b2b00001584p1 -> ../dm-23
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 May 8 10:32 360060e80045b2b0000005b2b00003130 -> ../dm-1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 May 8 10:32 360060e80045b2b0000005b2b00003131 -> ../dm-2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 May 8 10:32 360060e80045b2b0000005b2b00003132 -> ../dm-3
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 May 8 10:32 360060e80045b2b0000005b2b00003133 -> ../dm-4
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 May 8 10:32 360060e80045b2b0000005b2b00003134 -> ../dm-5

8. Ensure that the devices can be seen in /dev/mapper:

For example (as root) (f Real Application Clusters (RAC), do on each node.):
# ls -l /dev/mapper
total 0
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 253, 0 Jun 27 07:17 360060e80045b2b0000005b2b000006b0

9. Check the device type:

For example (as root) (f Real Application Clusters (RAC), do on each node.):
# /sbin/blkid | grep oracleasm
/dev/dm-20: LABEL="DAT" TYPE="oracleasm" ---&gt >>here multipathed
/dev/dm-22: LABEL="ARC" TYPE="oracleasm"
/dev/dm-23: LABEL="FRA" TYPE="oracleasm"
/dev/sdh1: LABEL="DAT" TYPE="oracleasm" ---&gt here physical
/dev/sdx1: LABEL="ARC" TYPE="oracleasm"
/dev/sdj1: LABEL="FRA" TYPE="oracleasm"
/dev/sdi1: LABEL="DAT" TYPE="oracleasm" ---&gt >> here physical
/dev/sdy1: LABEL="ARC" TYPE="oracleasm"
/dev/sdz1: LABEL="FRA" TYPE="oracleasm"
>>>>


10. Setup the ASM parameter (ORACLEASM_SCANORDER), in the file for ASMLIB configuration, /etc/sysconfig/oracleasm, for forcing ASM to bind with the multipath devices


Note: If Real Application Clusters (RAC), do commands on each node. All commands done as root.

10a. Check the file, /etc/sysconfig/oracleasm:


# ls -la /etc/sysconfig/oracleasm
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 Jun 13 09:58 /etc/sysconfig/oracleasm -> oracleasm-_dev_oracleasm

10b. Make a backup of the original file, /etc/sysconfig/oracleasm-_dev_oracleasm


# cp /etc/sysconfig/oracleasm-_dev_oracleasm /etc/sysconfig/oracleasm-_dev_oracleasm.orig

10c. Modify the ORACLEASM_SCANORDER and ORACLEASM_SCANEXCLUDE parameters in /etc/sysconfig/oracleasm:


# vi /etc/sysconfig/oracleasm-_dev_oracleasm

# ORACLEASM_SCANORDER: Matching patterns to order disk scanning

ORACLEASM_SCANORDER="mpath dm"

# ORACLEASM_SCANEXCLUDE: Matching patterns to exclude disks from scan

ORACLEASM_SCANEXCLUDE="sd"
Note: Another valid value can be used for ORACLEASM_SCANORDER: ORACLEASM_SCANORDER="dm"

10d. save file

10e. Restart oracleasm:


# service oracleasm restart

or

# /etc/init.d/oracleasm restart

10f. Check mulitpath device against /proc/partitions file:


# cat /proc/partitions
major minor #blocks name
.
.
.
253 20 524281275 dm-20

10g. Check mulitpath device against the file, /dev/oracleasm/disks:


# ls -ltr /dev/oracleasm/disks
brw-rw---- 1 grid asmadmin 253, 20 Oct 4 13:37 DAT

10f. Check oracleasm disks again:

# /etc/init.d/oracleasm listdisks
DAT

Note: ASMLIB first tries/scans all disks that are in the /proc/partitions file. Within the multipath directory, /dev/mpath, the alias names and the WWIDs point to/are linked to the multipathed names dm[-n] names. Furthermore, ASMLIB does not scan any disks (ORACLEASM_SCANEXCLUDE) that start with "sd". This is all the SCSI disks.
