Table 10-57 Options for the online command

Option Description

-a

Online all offline disks in the disk group.

-G diskgroup

Disk group name.

-F failgroup

Failure group name.

-D disk

Disk name.

--power n

Specifies the power option (1 to 1024) which determines the level of resources for the disk resync and disk group rebalance. Larger values result in faster disk resync and disk group rebalance. The default is 1.

-w

Wait option. Causes ASMCMD to wait for the disk group to be rebalanced before returning control to the user. The default is not waiting.

When a failure group is specified, this implies all the disks that belong to it should be onlined.

Example

The following are examples of the online command. The first example onlines all disks in the failgroup1 failure group of the data disk group with the wait option enabled. The second example onlines the data_0001 disk in the data disk group.
