If I'm not mistaken, both ocr and voting disks have to be 300MB in 11gR1.

- What is the minimal # of OCR & VOTING disks needed for a production (I
mean production) system
From 10g R2 , Oracle Recommend OCR and VOTING File 256 MB
and If you have plan to use ASM, don't forgot to allocate for SPFILE (ASM) 50M
If you have plan to use 11gR2, you can store OCR, VOTE and SPFLE(ASM) in ASM
DiskGroups (DGDATA or DGFRA).
- will having a 72 GB LUN for OCR or VOTING cause performance issues?
I have no idea...
But You may make partition from your LUN (72 GB)
Example: sub partition disk (use 1 OCR File + 1 VOTE File, if Storage is A
High Availability )
72 GB = /dev/emcpowera
/dev/emcpowera1 = 256M = OCR
/dev/emcpowera2 = 256M = VOTE
/dev/emcpowera3 = 50M = SPFILE(ASM)
/dev/emcpowera4 = ASM Disk Group

Folks,
We have an installation where we mentioned DGDATA and DGFRA LUN sizes of
72 GB. However, we forgot to mention the OCR & VOTING LUN sizes. This
was 4-5 months ago.
The infrastructure team mentioned that they have a SAN which has minimal
LUN size of 72 GB and they can't bring SAN down for us as there are
other apps running on that. This means that we have to give up part of
DGDATA and DGFRA for this large LUN sizes.
Since we cannot do any RAC without OCR and VOTING, I have 2 questions:
- What is the minimal # of OCR & VOTING disks needed for a production (I
mean production) system
- will having a 72 GB LUN for OCR or VOTING cause performance issues?
