Note:
If the disk size is increased after the OCSM installation and configuration, partitions space can be reconfigured by using script:/opt/oracle/ocsm/usr/share/pld/scripts/admin/change-disk-usage.py
For example:.
/opt/oracle/ocsm/usr/share/pld/scripts/admin/change-disk-usage.py -d1 <new-size> -d2 <new size>
Use d2 only if dual disks are being used. However, if the new partition space is lesser than the previous size then data is deleted. Ensure that the size is larger than the preconfigured size.
