And then you should install related yum packages like following.

[root@MehmetSalih ~]# yum install oracleasm-support.x86_64

[root@MehmetSalih ~]# yum install kmod-oracleasm

After Oracle ASM lib packages are installed you need to con gure like following.

[root@MehmetSalih ~]# oracleasm configure -i

Configuring the Oracle ASM library driver.
This will configure the on-boot properties of the Oracle ASM library
driver. The following questions will determine whether the driver is

loaded on boot and what permissions it will have. The current values
will be shown in brackets ('[]'). Hitting <ENTER> without typing an
answer will keep that current value. Ctrl-C will abort.

Default user to own the driver interface []: oracle

Default group to own the driver interface []: oinstall
Start Oracle ASM library driver on boot (y/n) [n]: y
Scan for Oracle ASM disks on boot (y/n) [y]: y
Writing Oracle ASM library driver configuration: done

Check Oracle ASM status like following.

[root@MehmetSalih ~]# oracleasm status

Checking if ASM is loaded: no
Checking if /dev/oracleasm is mounted: no
[root@MehmetSalih ~]#
[root@MehmetSalih ~]#

İnitialize oracleasm like following

[root@MehmetSalih ~]# oracleasm init

Creating /dev/oracleasm mount point: /dev/oracleasm
Loading module "oracleasm": oracleasm
Configuring "oracleasm" to use device physical block size
Mounting ASMlib driver filesystem: /dev/oracleasm
[root@MehmetSalih ~]#

After seeing Oracleasm software works correctly, the disk is created as follows.

[root@MehmetSalih ~]# oracleasm createdisk DATA /dev/sdc2

Writing disk header: done
Instantiating disk: done
[root@MehmetSalih ~]#

And we can list oracle asmdisk like following.

[root@MehmetSalih ~]# oracleasm listdisks

DATA
[root@MehmetSalih ~]#

Now Oracle ASM Disk ( DATA ) is created, you can use it during Automatic Storage Management
Installation.
