Thanks everyone for help.

I am using EC2 AWS cloud instances with RHEL 7 and they are using XEN visualization. I am not sure if I can change something outside from OS, like I can do for VMware or OVM.

I test a bit with disk names and it seems they I always have same names for devises path. So now I removed some options from UDEV conf file and it works.

KERNEL=="xvdg", SYMLINK+="oracleasm/asm-data3" OWNER="grid", GROUP="asmadmin", MODE="0660"

So I don't have UUID , I don't use UUID. Is it good enough or can be some side effects ?

P.S. This is not prod system.

I did a blog entry on this in August. See if this helps. Also if you are using VMware vmdk's I think there is an option to generate SCSI id's.

 Find the section in the blog that talks about rhel 7 for the rules:

looking the device name it looks like the system is a virtualized guest?

AFIAK scsi_id does not return anything for virtual disks

In OVM Guests for example, this is from a RAC running in OVM, what we do is in vm.cfg we bind the physical disks to xvd* disk in the guest, for example:

disk =
['file:/OVS/Repositories/0004fb00000300008efa6174ff36f936/VirtualDisks/0004fb0000120000788e1d3e6843db80.img,xvda,w',

'phy:/dev/mapper/3600144f0b681e04e0000523abfa90006,xvdb,w!',
'phy:/dev/mapper/3600144f0b681e04e0000523abfbd0007,xvdc,w!',
'phy:/dev/mapper/3600144f0b681e04e0000523abfcb0008,xvdd,w!',
'phy:/dev/mapper/3600144f0b681e04e0000523ac063000a,xvde,w!',
'phy:/dev/mapper/3600144f0b681e04e0000523ac072000b,xvdf,w!',
'phy:/dev/mapper/3600144f0b681e04e0000523ac150000c,xvdg,w!',
'phy:/dev/mapper/3600144f0b681e04e0000523ac160000d,xvdh,w!']

and in the guest udev file we have this

KERNEL=="xvdb1", NAME="asm_crsdata01p1" OWNER="grid", GROUP="asmadmin", MODE="0660"
KERNEL=="xvdc1", NAME="asm_crsdata02p1" OWNER="grid", GROUP="asmadmin", MODE="0660"
KERNEL=="xvdd1", NAME="asm_crsdata03p1" OWNER="grid", GROUP="asmadmin", MODE="0660"
KERNEL=="xvde1", NAME="asm_dgdata01_01p1" OWNER="grid", GROUP="asmadmin", MODE="0660"
KERNEL=="xvdf1", NAME="asm_dgdata01_02p1" OWNER="grid", GROUP="asmadmin", MODE="0660"
KERNEL=="xvdg1", NAME="asm_dgfra01_01p1" OWNER="grid", GROUP="asmadmin", MODE="0660"
KERNEL=="xvdh1", NAME="asm_dgfra01_02p1" OWNER="grid", GROUP="asmadmin", MODE="0660" in VMWARE yuo can get guest UUID by setting EnableUUID to TRUE but I dont think there is anyway in OVM

You need to ask Amazon what sort of Virtualization they are using

Thanks
