Randy,
1MB offset is more of a best practice, than the requirement. That is just to
preserve the accidental overwrite or corruption of ASM disks during fdisk
operations.
Have a nice day !!

Subject: asm disks
Currently when I am creating an ASM disk, I present the entire disk /dev/sdc to
ASM, but I recall reading somewhere, that it might be a good idea to first
create a 1 meg partition on the disk and then give the rest /dev/sdc2 to ASM.
Has anyone else heard of this or done this?
Randy
