I am trying to setup a 11gR2 non RAC with ASM on OEL 5.4 I am having trouble setting up ASM. I have an ACER laptop with 4GB RAM and 320 GB hard drive each. Would appreciate if you could help me with the following: 1) ASM is defined as a feature. So is there a file system underneath or is it working on raw devices? I did not find a straight answer for this. 2) To setup 11gR2 RAC with ASM and 11gR2 NON RAC with ASM, am I correct in understanding that 2 separate binaries are required on 2 laptops/servers meaning there will be 4 oracle homes: 1 for ASM, 1 for RAC binary, 1 for Non RAC binary, 1 for clusterware 3) I installed a 11gR2 non rac binary successfully (just the software no database). Now I am trying to install ASM with grid infrastructure runinstaller. My disks are not detected at this stage. The default OS setup came with 4 logical volumes and I created a logical volume LogVol04 of size 105GB to be used for ASM. I used iscsi initiator and detected it as /dev/sdb. What am I doing wrong here. Should n't /dev/sdb1 be detected by asm for disks? Please advice.
