How to Register and Configure Oracle ASM Resource Groups in the Global Cluster (CLI)

Before You Begin

• Ensure that the Oracle Grid Infrastructure framework resource is created and that dependencies are configured between the Support for Oracle RAC framework resource and the Oracle Grid Infrastructure framework resource.

• Ensure that the Support for Oracle RAC framework resource group, the multiple-owner volume-manager framework resource group if used, and their resources are online.

1. Register the Oracle ASM resource types for the data service.
   1. Register the SUNW.scalable_asm_instance_proxy resource type.

      # clresourcetype register SUNW.scalable_asm_instance_proxy

   2. Register the SUNW.scalable_asm_diskgroup_proxy resource type.

      # clresourcetype register SUNW.scalable_asm_diskgroup_proxy

2. Create the Oracle ASM instance and disk-group resource groups.

   # clresourcegroup create -S asm-inst-rg asm-dg-rg

   asm-inst-rg

   Specifies the name of the Oracle ASM instance resource group.

   asm-dg-rg

   Specifies the name of the Oracle ASM disk-group resource group.

3. Set a strong positive affinity on rac-fmwk-rg by asm-inst-rg.

   # clresourcegroup set -p rg_affinities=++rac-fmwk-rg asm-inst-rg

4. Set a strong positive affinity on asm-inst-rg by asm-dg-rg.

   # clresourcegroup set -p rg_affinities=++asm-inst-rg asm-dg-rg

5. Create a SUNW.scalable_asm_instance_proxy resource and set the resource dependencies.

   # clresource create -g asm-inst-rg \
   -t SUNW.scalable_asm_instance_proxy \
   -p ORACLE_HOME=Grid_home \
   -p CRS_HOME=Grid_home \
   -p resource_dependencies_offline_restart=crs-fmwk-rs \
   -d asm-inst-rs

6. Add a SUNW.scalable_asm_diskgroup_proxy resource type to the asm-dg-rg resource group.

   # clresource create -g asm-dg-rg -t SUNW.scalable_asm_diskgroup_proxy \
   -p asm_diskgroups=dg[,dg…] \
   -p resource_dependencies_offline_restart=asm-inst-rs[,storage-rs \
   -d asm-dg-rs

7. Bring online the asm-inst-rg resource group in a managed state on a cluster node.

   # clresourcegroup online -M asm-inst-rg

8. Bring online the asm-dg-rg resource group in a managed state on a cluster node.

   # clresourcegroup online -M asm-dg-rg

9. Verify the Oracle ASM configuration.

   # clresource status +
