有同学在T.askmaclean.com上提问关于修改11gR2中ASM DISK的路径问题，具体问题如下：  
aix 6.1，grid 11.2.0.3+asm11.2.0.3+rac 建数据库的时候使用的是aix自带的多路径软件mpio，建了diskgroup 现在改造成veritas dmp多路径，已经修改了asm的disk_strings＝/dev/vx/rdmp/*，crs/asm启动的时候已经可以识别到磁盘/dev/vx/rdmp/开头的磁盘，但是读取不回原来的diskgroup信息。 crs启动的报错日志： 2012-07-13 15:07:29.748: [ GPNP][1286]clsgpnp_profileCallUrlInt: [at clsgpnp.c:2108 clsgpnp_profileCallUrlInt] get-profile call to url "ipc://GPNPD_ggtest1" disco "" [f=0 claimed- host: cname: seq: auth:] 2012-07-13 15:07:29.762: [ GPNP][1286]clsgpnp_profileCallUrlInt: [at clsgpnp.c:2236 clsgpnp_profileCallUrlInt] Result: (0) CLSGPNP_OK.

    其需求为修改ASM DISK PATH的磁盘设备路径，但是由于11gR2 RAC+ASM的特殊性，导致CRS无法正常启动，虽然使用crsctl start crs -excl -nocrs的方式可以启动CSS服务和ASM实例，   但是最后还是报(clssnmCompleteInitVFDiscovery: Voting file not found)，这是由于Voteing file投票磁盘的位置没有合理更新导致的。     这里我们来学习一下，如何正确的修改11gR2 RAC+ASM下的ASM DISK路径：     1.我们来营造一个修改ASM DISK路径的环境，这里我们使用UDEV的设备名绑定服务，并利用UDEV将原本的ASM DISK从/dev/asm-disk* 修改为 /dev/rasm-disk*的形式， 这只需要修改udev rule文件即可实现：

    以上修改了原始99-oracle-asmdevices.rules的UDEV RULE规则文件，生成的设备名被修改为/dev/rasm-disk*的形式，不同于之前的ASM DISK设备名， 这要求我们后续的一系列操作来保证RAC CRS可以正常启动。   当前运行时的votedisk和ocr 存放位置:

    因为votedisk file的位置具体指向一个ASM DISK，所以后续我们会需要crsctl replace votedisk， 我们现在重启LINUX OS:

    重启后自动获得了形如/dev/rasm-disk*的ASM DISK,查阅ASM日志可以发现css服务仍搜索/dev/asm*路径来获得ASM DISK，但是这将导致找不到任何有效的ASM DISK:
