or more specifically... would the "additional disk space for ASM metadata" be 
on 3 separate disks or be part of the database storage disks?

Happy PI Day, everyone!
I'm going thru Grid/RAC setup for the first time. Finding the manual confusing 
when it explains how to set up storage. 


This is 11gR2 on linux. The install guide indicates I will need:

assuming for normal redundancy

minimum 3 disks of 1.5GB each for Clusterware
minimum 2 disks 9GB each for database storage
and additional disk space for ASM metadata -- at least 3 disks of 2GB each.

Putting it all together -- Does this mean I need 8 disks minimum? or would some 
of these normally be combined?

Thank you in advance!
