Guidelines for Installing Oracle ASMFD on Oracle Solaris

Review these best practices for Oracle Automatic Storage Management Filter Driver (Oracle ASMFD).

On Oracle Solaris systems, consider the following guidelines before you install Oracle ASMFD:

  • Ensure that you label the disk as either SMI or Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI).

  • Ensure that the disk has at least one slice that represents the entire disk. For example, Slice 2.

  • Ensure that the slices on the disk do not overlap.
