  • Oracle ASM Multipath Problem

    Posted on

    Hi,

    We have some EMC VNX storage arrays for Oracle DB servers and we are using native multipathing on Oracle Linux 6.5.
    There is a problem about LUN trespass between multipath and ASM.
    When one of SPs is rebooted, all disks are in Missing status in ASM. I don't know why ASM can't use disks when those disks are trespassed to another SP and another path group.
    In addition of the rebooted SP's LUNs, other LUNs will be missed!
    Here is our device configurations in multipath.conf:

    defaults {
    udev_dir /dev
    polling_interval 5
    path_selector "round-robin 0"
    path_grouping_policy group_by_prio
    getuid_callout "/lib/udev/scsi_id --whitelisted --device=/dev/%n"
    prio alua
    path_checker tur
    rr_min_io 100
    max_fds max
    rr_weight uniform
    failback immediate
    no_path_retry fail
    features "0"
    user_friendly_names yes
    }
