Configure an Added Storage Array (CLI)

Language:

Use this procedure to configure a storage array that is added to the system after the initial installation. You can connect the additional storage array and run this procedure on a system that is running.

Note - When MiniCluster is installed, the installation process automatically detects all attached storage (including multiple storage arrays), configures the storage, and makes the storage available for use. This procedure is intended for situations when a storage array is added to the system after the installation.

After you add a JBOD, ASM might need to rebalance to get to a stable state before the added storage is available to use.

Ensure that the additional storage array is physically connected to MiniCluster.
For details on connecting storage array hardware, refer to the Oracle MiniCluster S7-2 Installation Guide.

You can verify storage array hardware connectivity through the MCMU BUI Hardware Topology page. See View the Hardware Topology (BUI).
Log into the mcmu CLI as a primary admin such as mcinstall.
See Log in to the MCMU CLI.

Configure the new storage array.

% mcmu diskutil -e

For example:

% mcmu diskutil -e
