2.4.2 ASM (Automatic Storage Management)

Automatic Storage Management (hereafter ASM), which is one of the new Oracle 10g features, can be used for 1:1 standby operation or scalable operation only, but not for mutual standby operation and N:1 standby operation.

1:1 standby operation

Create an ASM instance resource.
The ASM instance will not be monitored, but only started or stopped
If the ASM instance fails, an Oracle instance resource error will be detected, so userApplication will be switched to the standby node, and ongoing operations will never be disrupted.

Scalable operation

Do not create an ASM instance resource if ASM is used for Oracle RAC. The ASM instance will be controlled by Oracle Clusterware.
