ASM disk permission change on every reboot (Oracle Solaris on SPARC (64-bit)

2988989Dec 2 2015 — edited Dec 2 2015

I understand the solution for a RHEL/Linux environment using udev & ASMlib to retaining RAW device file permissions/ownership.

However, I need a solution for Solaris.  It appears everytime a Solaris server performs a "reconfigure" reboot, the /dev/rdsk/c*d*s6 file permissions will change to root ownership.  This might be the routine that happens for a "reconfigure" reboot when the OS rebuilds it's device files.  The only really solution I see is to develop our own home grown "chown/chmod" scripts to run at boot time (/etc/rc3.d) to modifiy any/all ASM related device files.

Please advise.


We understand the workaround solution.  However, i need to understand why is the ownership of the ASM disks getting changed for every reboot.  This situation never happened before.  If there a recent OS related patch that was applied that has caused this situation?
