2.4.3 Modify the State of a Pool Disk

This topic describes how to modify a pool disk and change its state; either online or offline.

A pool disk is a portion of an Exadata storage device that is designated for use by Exascale. You can modify a pool disk by setting its state to online or offline.

To modify the state of a pool disk, use the ESCLI chpooldisk command and specify:

  • The identifier for the pool disk that you want to modify.

    You can use the ESCLI lspooldisk command to display the pool disk identifier for any Exascale pool disk.

  • The desired pool disk state. Either --offline or --online.

For example:

@> chpooldisk 15 --offline
