Oracle Database Discussions

Hi,

I have ASM+RAC+OCS 10g DB on 2 cluster nodes. Because the asm disk is full, I tried to add another one to it. I marked the disk with "oracleasm createdisk" on 1 node, but forgot to do a "oracleasm scandisk" on the 2nd node. I went into sql+ and tried to add the disk using "alter diskgroup DATA add disk 'ORCL:DISK2'" and got the error

ERROR at line 1:
ORA-15032: not all alterations performed
ORA-15075: disk(s) are not visible cluster-wide

I tried to drop the disk with "alter diskgroup DATA drop disk DISK2;" and got

ERROR at line 1:
ORA-15032: not all alterations performed
ORA-15071: ASM disk "DISK2" is already being dropped

At last I removed the disk using "oracleasm deletedisk". I don't think any data was lost through rebalancing because the disk was never added.

Now, when I try to start ASM, I got the error

ORA-15032: not all alterations performed
ORA-15040: diskgroup is incomplete
ORA-15066: offlining disk "" may result in a data loss
ORA-15042: ASM disk "1" is missing

Does ASM have some kind of config file regarding to disks it has in a group? I have been trying to resolve this in the past few days, but no avail. Any help is greatly appreciated.
