Templates:
Templates are named groups of attributes that can be applied to the files within a disk group
Examples :
-- Create a new template.
ALTER DISKGROUP disk_group_1 ADD TEMPLATE my_template ATTRIBUTES (MIRROR FINE);
-- Modify template.
ALTER DISKGROUP disk_group_1 ALTER TEMPLATE my_template ATTRIBUTES (COARSE);
-- Drop template.
ALTER DISKGROUP disk_group_1 DROP TEMPLATE my_template;
Available attributes include:
- UNPROTECTED – No mirroring or striping regardless of the redundancy setting.
- MIRROR – Two-way mirroring for normal redundancy and three-way mirroring for high redundancy. This attribute cannot be set for external redundancy.
- COARSE – Specifies lower granuality for striping. This attribute cannot be set for external redundancy.
- FINE – Specifies higher granularity for striping. This attribute cannot be set for external redundancy.
Directories
A directory heirarchy can be defined using the ALTER DISKGROUP
statement to support ASM file aliasing
Examples :
-- Create a directory.
ALTER DISKGROUP disk_group_1 ADD DIRECTORY '+disk_group_1/my_dir';
-- Rename a directory.
ALTER DISKGROUP disk_group_1 RENAME DIRECTORY '+disk_group_1/my_dir' TO '+disk_group_1/my_dir_2';
-- Delete a directory and all its contents.
ALTER DISKGROUP disk_group_1 DROP DIRECTORY '+disk_group_1/my_dir_2' FORCE;
Aliases
Aliases allow you to reference ASM files using user-friendly names
-- Create an alias using the fully qualified filename.
ALTER DISKGROUP disk_group_1 ADD ALIAS '+disk_group_1/my_dir/my_file.dbf'
FOR '+disk_group_1/mydb/datafile/my_ts.342.3';
-- Create an alias using the numeric form filename.
ALTER DISKGROUP disk_group_1 ADD ALIAS '+disk_group_1/my_dir/my_file.dbf'
FOR '+disk_group_1.342.3';
-- Rename an alias.
ALTER DISKGROUP disk_group_1 RENAME ALIAS '+disk_group_1/my_dir/my_file.dbf'
TO '+disk_group_1/my_dir/my_file2.dbf';
-- Delete an alias.
ALTER DISKGROUP disk_group_1 DELETE ALIAS
Files
Files are not deleted automatically if they are created using aliases, as they are not Oracle Managed Files (OMF), or if a recovery is done to a point-in-time before the file was created. For these circumstances it is necessary to manually delete the files, as shown below.
-- Drop file using an alias.
ALTER DISKGROUP disk_group_1 DROP FILE '+disk_group_1/my_dir/my_file.dbf';
-- Drop file using a numeric form filename.
ALTER DISKGROUP disk_group_1 DROP FILE '+disk_group_1.342.3';
-- Drop file using a fully qualified filename.
ALTER DISKGROUP disk_group_1 DROP FILE '+disk_group_1/mydb/datafile/my_ts.342.3';
ASM Views:
Migrating to ASM Using RMAN:
- Disable change tracking (only available in Enterprise Edition) if it is currently being used.
SQL> ALTER DATABASE DISABLE BLOCK CHANGE TRACKING;
- Shutdown the database.
SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE
- Modify the parameter file of the target database as follows:
Set theDB_CREATE_FILE_DEST
andDB_CREATE_ONLINE_LOG_DEST_n
parameters to the relevant ASM disk groups.
Remove theCONTROL_FILES
parameter from the spfile so the control files will be moved to theDB_CREATE_*
destination and the spfile gets updated automatically. If you are using a pfile theCONTROL_FILES
parameter must be set to the appropriate ASM files or aliases.
- Modify the parameter file of the target database as follows:
- Start the database in nomount mode.
RMAN> STARTUP NOMOUNT
- Restore the controlfile into the new location from the old location.
RMAN> RESTORE CONTROLFILE FROM ‘old_control_file_name’;
- Mount the database.
- Copy the database into the ASM disk group.
RMAN> BACKUP AS COPY DATABASE FORMAT '+disk_group';
- Switch all datafile to the new ASM location.
RMAN> SWITCH DATABASE TO COPY;
- Open the database.
RMAN> ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
- Create new redo logs in ASM and delete the old ones.
- Enable change tracking if it was being used.
SQL> ALTER DATABASE ENABLE BLOCK CHANGE TRACKING;
Hello there! Thank you for sharing your thoughts about auto storage in your area. I am glad to stop by your site and know more about auto storage. Keep it up! This is a good read. You have such an interesting and informative page. I will be looking forward to visit your page again and for your other posts as well. One in ten U.S. households now rent a self storage unit.The growing demand for self storage in the U.S. is created by people moving (some 40 million Americans move each year according to U.S. Census data), and by various lifestyle transitions, such as marriage, divorce, retirement, a death in the family, etc. In February 2011, 73% of storage facility owners responding to a survey by SelfStorage.com reported revenue as stable or growing from the prior year.Connecticut weather brings snow, ice, sand, salt and potholes. No place for that priceless exotic. Canaan Car Storage is managed by true car enthusiasts who can be trusted to care for the proper storage of your rare exotic like it is one of our own.

Self storage is very important now a days due to rampant burglars and other thief's that are roaming around. I liked this place, every single interaction with their employees has been incredibly helpful, friendly and personable and the units were well lit and clean.
