Views Containing Oracle ACFS Information

You can use the views in Table 12-1 to obtain information about Oracle Automatic Storage Management Cluster File System (Oracle ACFS). These views are accessible from the Oracle ASM instance.

Note:

To display information about Oracle ACFS file systems or volumes that are located on nodes in an Oracle Flex ASM configuration, you must connect to the Oracle ASM proxy instance instead of the local Oracle ASM instance. For information about Oracle Flex ASM, refer to "Managing Oracle Flex ASM".
When viewing space usage values in Oracle ACFS views on Windows systems, the values may differ from sizes in Windows folders. The mechanism used by Folder Properties on Windows systems only accounts for files and should be considered an approximate value.

Table 12-1 Oracle ASM dynamic views for Oracle ACFS information

View	Description

Example 12-1 shows information displayed from the V$ASM_ACFS_ENCRYPTION_INFO view. The FS_NAME column contains the mount point. The VOL_DEVICE contains the name of the Oracle ADVM device.

Example 12-2 shows information displayed from the V$ASM_ACFS_SECURITY_INFO view. The FS_NAME column contains the mount point. The VOL_DEVICE contains the name of the Oracle ADVM device.

Example 12-3 shows information displayed from the V$ASM_ACFS_SEC_RULE view. The FS_NAME column contains the mount point.

Example 12-4 shows information displayed from the V$ASM_ACFS_SEC_RULESET view. The FS_NAME column contains the mount point.

Example 12-5 shows information displayed from the V$ASM_ACFS_SEC_RULESET_RULE view. The FS_NAME column contains the mount point.

Example 12-7 shows information displayed from the V$ASM_ACFSVOLUMES view. The PRIMARY_VOL column contains TRUE if the volume is the primary volume for the file system.

Oracle Database Reference for information about the V$ASM_ACFSVOLUMES view

Example 12-8 shows information displayed from the V$ASM_FILESYSTEM view.

The STATE column contains the status of the file system, either AVAILABLE or OFFLINE. An offline file system can only be dismounted; other attempts at access result in errors. Offline means that either the Oracle ASM instance is down, the disk group has been forced dismounted, or less commonly, a metadata I/O failure occurred or serious metadata corruption was detected. With a metadata I/O failure, the file system is also marked as corrupt.

The CORRUPT column indicates whether the file system needs the fsck or acfschkdsk command run on it. See "fsck" and "acfschkdsk".

Example 12-9 shows information displayed from the V$ASM_VOLUME view for volumes contained in the DATA disk group.

Example 12-10 shows information displayed from the V$ASM_VOLUME_STAT view for volumes contained in the DATA disk group. The BYTES_READ column contains the total number of bytes read for the volume. The BYTES_WRITTEN column contains the total number of bytes written for the volume.
