Create ASM Disk Groups cannot see Disk Path to select during installation

misterimranSep 30 2011 — edited May 9 2012
Hello Guys,

I am setting up 2 node RAC on 11gR2 and Linux.
I have configured all the pre-installation steps that are required to run Grid Setup as per my understanding.

I have configure SAN partitions using multipath.
I can see my SAN volume when i query multipath -l

Then i configured the raw partitions by oracleasm. Configured and then created mount points:

/dev/oracleasm/disks/
CRSVOL1 DATAVOL1 FRAVOL1

Later on I created the disks using oracle asm command:
/usr/sbin/oracleasm createdisk CRSVOL1 /dev/mapper/racdbp1 and so on...

I have run /usr/sbin/oracleasm scandisks
Cleaning any stale ASM disks...
Scanning system for ASM disks...

And when i list disk with command /usr/sbin/oracleasm listdisks
it shows the disk like this on both nodes:

CRSVOL1
DATAVOL1
FRAVOL1

BUT during the installation screen when it comes to create ASM Disk Groups It shows nothing in the add disk frame, I cant select the volumes I can list, like i did above.

Any hint please?

Thanks, Imran
