us to balance the workloads evenly over two storage array nodes while maintaining
redundancy for high availability.
Each of these eight volumes is created with the same size as they will be presented to the
Oracle database nodes to form Oracle ASM disks of an ASM disk group.

Storage volume setup on the DAAD Storage Array
DAAD storage array uses the default name fcion1 for the first cluster array. With HA
clustering configuration, this array has two nodes: fcion1a and fcion1b. If there is a
need to add additional clusters, this naming convention carries on for each additional
cluster array, such as fcion2 for the second cluster array. With the same naming
convention, the node names for the second cluster will be fcion2a and fcion2b. By
default, DISOD is shipped with one DAAD cluster which consists of two DAAD storage
array nodes.
8 volumes are created for each DAAD cluster array. These 8 volumes are given the
following local names:
v_a1
v_a2
v_b1
v_b2
v_c1
v_c2
v_d1
v_d2
The full name of each volume will be the cluster name + the local name. For example, the
8 volumes of the first cluster array (fcion1) will be:
fcion1_v_a1
fcion1_v_a2
fcion1_v_b1
fcion1_v_b2
