To clearly show the relationship from the Oracle layer (ASM/raw),
Linux, SAN. Get the following info
ASM:
-Label
-Path
Linux:
- Major Number
- Minor Number
- Device Name
- EMC Power Device Name (let's say you're on EMC)
SAN
- Logical Device ID
- Logical Device Name
Put these info in an Excel file. Any changes that you do, you must
coordinate it with your storage admin or vice versa because you don't
want to accidentally format a device allocated for an ASM disk
group... :)
You could look at a sample table on Part 1: 2b of this doc
