Hi, Thanks for the information. But dont you think if oracleasm deamon/service is hung or stoppedon nodes then your whole database comes down. This was't the case with raw devices. Even though there is entry for it in /etc/init.d/rawdevices but in RHEL 5.5 you can not stop or start it :) Regards, Raj On Mon, Dec 6, 2010 at 6:35 AM, Yong Huang <yong321@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Regarding kernel upgrade and ASMlib upgrade, there may be an annoyance > to some people finding the correct ASMlib on Oracle OTN web site.
