How to add ASM Disk to Disk Group that is shown as MEMBER?

user1983888Aug 21 2010 — edited Sep 19 2010
HI,

We have a Production Oracle RAC on HP-UX. We have Two Disk Groups one for Arcive (ARC_DISK) and other for Database(DATA_DISK).

Today I wanted to add another 200 GB of Disk Space to the DATA_DISK Group.

I opened DBCA and could not find the new disk in the 'Show Candidates' option. But after the Unix admin changed the ownership and permission of the Disk, it was shown in 'Show Candidates' option. I selected this Disk and continued but got an error later as we didnt change the ownership and permission from the 2nd Unix server. After doing this, , when I open DBCA to add disk, nothing is shown in 'Show Candidates' option but when we click on 'Show All', the new disk is listed as MEMBER (header status) but not allocated to any Disk Group.

I would like to know how to allocate this Disk (which is already shown as MEMBER) to the DATA_DISK - ASM diskgroup. This is a production database system.

Rgds,

Thiru
