ASM doesn’t do balancing based on use. It just rebalances (either manually or when certain events happen) to ensure the data is spread evenly across all disks in a group.

One explanation is here: https://community.oracle.com/thread/2361397

And another is here: http://asmsupportguy.blogspot.co.uk/2011/11/rebalancing-act.html

All,

Does ASM move hot spots around in the background, or do you have to do a rebalance accomplish that?

I cannot find anywhere in Oracle documentation stating that it does, so I assume that that it does not.
