Hi Mark,
Thanks for the reply!
Earlier today I was seeing that you could tell it when to scan multipath but didn’t see a way to look for just that one disk. Crossing my fingers that will work.
Will let you know how it turns out-

Hi Sallie,
I'm mostly on to AFD (ASM Filter Driver) now, so it's been a while since I ran ASMLib, and even longer since I was on RAC.
But, if 'oracleasm scandisks' doesn't work, I can think of a could of things to try:
1.) what if you do 'oracleasm scandisks /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1', where /dev/sda1, /dev/sdb1/ /dev/sdc1 are the newdisks you're adding? That should make it much faster, not having to scan all the disks, just the one(s) you have recently added. 2.) What if you first do a 'sudo /sbin/partprobe', then try the scandisks?

I’ve stamped the new disk just fine on node 1 but now on node 2 when I run SCANDISKS, it just hangs. I read somewhere that someone had a problem with it being slow, so I left it there over 30 minutes and it was still hung. I couldn’t CTRL-C out of it – had to just shut down my session. I have 3 RAC environments and have done this process many times with no problems.
I opened a ticket with Oracle and it was routed to the Linux group who is asking me for a CSI number that includes Linux support. I’m running RHEL7, not Oracle Linux so I don’t have a CSI. I’ve asked if I need to go to RedHat with this question, but haven’t gotten any response back from Oracle.
So I’m hoping that someone on this list might have encountered something like this and can tell me where I need to go to get help on this.
