Oracle ASM extend Diskgroup

Hello,

here are the steps to drop and re-create the disk group

check the disk size (it's 50 gb)


[root@rac1 ~]# lsblk

[root@rac1 ~]# parted /dev/xvdg

Disk size is 200gb but allocated size/partition size is 50gb only.

Step:
1. Drop the current disk group
2. re-create partition
3. update disk UUID into dev rule
4. create a disk group with new size.

1. Drop the current disk group

SQL> alter diskgroup data mount;

Diskgroup altered.

SQL> drop diskgroup data;

Diskgroup dropped.

## Check disk is empty now.

set linesize 180

col path for a50
select path,header_status from v$asm_disk;

/dev/oracleasm/disk03                              MEMBER

Note: ASM does not allow to drop disk group if it's not mounted.

2. re-create partition
#create partation
parted /dev/xvdm
mktable gpt
mkpart asmpart1 0% 100%
quit

After paration:

[root@rac1 ~]# lsblk

3. update disk UUID into dev rule
