Has anyone setup ocr and voting disks on raw storage? I have the following multipathed disk presented to the host via fiber hba's:
c4t60060E8004F258000000F25800003212d0 <additional disk info>
The Oracle install guide mixes SC3.2 and vxvm verbage, but I just tried to stamp them chown oracle:dba, and chmod them 660. However, when I address slice 6, it doesn't recognize the slice. Are there any better details for reading how to set this up. I just want to use raw for the ocr and voting, and let ASM handle the database portion.
Additionally, would svm be compatible to use in setting up a layer to present for ocr, voting, and asm?

Mahesh,
Thanks for your reply. I dropped the first cylinder and started at 1. I gave the rest of the disk to root. Here is a copy of one of the disks that show up under the oracle user. As you can see I volnamed it and ran a format from root.
------------------------------------------------------------
0. c7t600C0FF0000000000B5C3B34D5EB3A00d0 <SUN-StorEdge3510-421F cyl 148 alt 2 hd 64 sec 32> ocra
/scsi_vhci/ssd@g600c0ff0000000000b5c3b34d5eb3a00
------------------------------------------------------------
When I own the disk for oracle, I notice that it doesn't reflect oracle:dba ownership under /dev/rdsk/c... The oracle permissions appear under /device/scsi_vhci/ssd....
When I run the format command under the oracle user, things like inquiry and disk format fail stating only "inquiry failed". For fiber channel connections I'm thinking I'm missing a step in setting this up. Anybody have references for what I'm missing.
