Help mount a virtual disks for Oralce
Posted: 2012/02/22 04:03:07
Hi
I am trying to mount virtual disks for Oracle Grid and it worked perfect with Solaris so I think it should be similar on Centos but I cant make the Grid recognizes that virtual files. I created 2Gb files inside my HDD as virtual disks using the following:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/free/asmdisks/_file_disk_01 bs=1k count=2359296
mount -t /free/asmdisks/_file_disk_01
mknod /free/asmdisks/vdisk1 c 147 1
Of course I created directories and changed permisions and ownerships. So if anyone knows what I am doing wrong or what it is missing please tell before I decide to test VMware or small partitions on my HDD.
