OCR and voting disk location

RaluceMay 24 2013 — edited May 31 2013

Hi all,

I'm testing to install an Oracle RAC database (11g) on linux RHE 5 with a shared storage DELL Equallogic SCSI SAN.
I will setup a 2 nodes and i will use ASM for the database storage. I'm new in RAC database and i'm checking some docs and find that for the installation should have 3 volumes.
1- volumes for OCR and voting disk
2- volume for Database file (ASM)
3- volume for flash Recovery area and archive log file (ASM)

My question is which file system i will use for OCR and voting disk volume as i know for Datafiles and flash recovery area i will use ASM, but for voting disk i cannot use ASM because the system will access first OCR before starting ASm instance.

If i will use other file system how can i do ?

Thank you.
