Commanding ASM
Overview Oracle Database 10g Release 1 introduced Automatic Storage Management (ASM), a new framework for managing Oracle database files. ASM provided a foundation for highly efficient storage management with kernelized asynchronous I/O, direct I/O, redundancy, striping, and an easy way to manage storage. ASM includes volume management functionality similar to that of a generic Logical Volume Manager (LVM). Managing ASM through SQL interfaces in Oracle Database 10g Release 1 posed a challenge for system administrators who were not very familiar with SQL and preferred a more conventional command-line interface. In Oracle Database 10g Release 2, an option is available to manage the ASM files by using ASMCMD - a powerful and easy-to-use command-line tool.
