Creatting ASM on LVM
DBA2011Apr 3 2009 — edited Apr 7 2009*/etc/init.d/oracleasm createdisk VOL1 /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol02*
Is this the right command to create asmlib
I am trying to configure asm , from scratch, just for practice purpose, this disk is partitioned with lvm, I want to practice settting up asm both with rawdevice & asmlibs, wondering how i can configure raw devices on this disk? if not i can use my external USB HDD....
