what I did was i removed a device which was attached to VOTE1 which was attched to /dev/sdb1

/usr/sbin/oracleasm deletedisk VOTE1
then added
/usr/sbin/oracleasm createdisk VOTE2 to /dev/sdb1

both the nodes
root@vmorarac2 ~]# /usr/sbin/oracleasm configure
ORACLEASM_ENABLED=true
ORACLEASM_UID=grid
ORACLEASM_GID=asmadmin
ORACLEASM_SCANBOOT=true
ORACLEASM_SCANORDER=""
ORACLEASM_SCANEXCLUDE=""

[root@vmorarac1 CVU_11.2.0.3.0_grid]# /usr/sbin/oracleasm status
Checking if ASM is loaded: yes
Checking if /dev/oracleasm is mounted: yes
[root@vmorarac1 CVU_11.2.0.3.0_grid]#


need to know on the warning message why is it been displayed

thanks
