If the preparation work is done well, the following grid or database installation will go smoothly. Please note that, you have to ssh as grid, not via su - grid from root.
Run the universal installer.
[grid@primary01 ~]$ cd /tmp/grid/
[grid@primary01 grid]$ ./runInstaller

Please note that, at this moment, the database (i.e. ora.compdb.db) resource is not in the list because the database is not installed.
Now, we have installed grid infrastructure.
Hello Again ;)..
So have got to step of creating the ASM disk group, but I cannot get the two disks to show up…
running ll /dev/disk/by-path/ gives me
…
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 9 Jun 30 19:05 ip-10.9.168.222:3260-iscsi-iqn.2005-10.org.freenas.ctl:asm-t1-lun-0 -> ../../sdc
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 10 Jun 30 19:05 ip-10.9.168.222:3260-iscsi-iqn.2005-10.org.freenas.ctl:asm-t1-lun-0-part1 -> ../../sdc1
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 9 Jun 30 19:05 ip-10.9.168.222:3260-iscsi-iqn.2005-10.org.freenas.ctl:asm-t2-lun-0 -> ../../sdb
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 10 Jun 30 19:05 ip-10.9.168.222:3260-iscsi-iqn.2005-10.org.freenas.ctl:asm-t2-lun-0-part1 -> ../../sdb1
and oracleasm listdisks gives the following:
[root@bp2orac1 disks]# oracleasm listdisks
ASMDISK_DATA
ASMDISK_OCR
and the disks are listed here:
[root@bp2orac1 disks]# pwd
/dev/oracleasm/disks
[root@bp2orac1 disks]# ll
total 0
brw-rw—-. 1 oracle oinstall 8, 17 Jun 30 19:05 ASMDISK_DATA
brw-rw—-. 1 oracle oinstall 8, 33 Jun 30 19:05 ASMDISK_OCR
[root@bp2orac1 disks]#
any thoughts? this now seems to be my main hurdle.
It looks fine to me. Your two ASM disks are controlled by ASMLib now. By the way, another series of posts might be helpful: How to Build 18c RAC – 1 of 4 – Preparing Two Database Servers.
