This is on rhel 6.5:

I read some about ASMFD, and decided to experiment with it.  I pulled out the 
Oracle documentation, and went through the step by step instructions to upgrade 
ASMLIB to ASMFD.  This is in the Oracle ASM Administrators Guide.  I ran the 
dsset command as instructed (note, I have tried it both with and without 
quotes: 
 
asmcmd dsset ORCL:*,AFD:*
 
Then shut down my sandbox cluster.
I get to the point where I am attempting to enable the driver and this is what 
I get:
 
[root@vmrh65node2 ~]# $ORACLE_HOME/bin/asmcmd afd_configure
Connected to an idle instance.
ASMCMD-9519: ASMLib is present with ASM disk string 'ORCL:*,AFD:*'; command 
requires default ASM disk string
 
I unloaded the ASMLIB and tried again, and received the same error.  Has anyone 
done this before, and can they point me to what I am doing wrong?
