To verify that Oracle Disk Manager is configured

1. Verify that the ODM feature is included in the license:

   # /opt/VRTS/bin/vxlicrep | grep ODM
   

   The output verifies that ODM is enabled.

   Note:

   Verify that the license key containing the ODM feature is not expired. If the license key has expired, you will not be able to use the ODM feature.

2. Check that the VRTSodm package is installed:

   (root@slias19)[/] swlist VRTSodm
   # Initializing...
   # Contacting target "slias19"...
   #
   # Target:  slias19:/
   #
   
   # VRTSodm             5.0.31.5.%20090322 Veritas Oracle Disk Manager 
     VRTSodm.ODM-KRN     5.0.31.5.%20090322 Veritas ODM kernel files 
     VRTSodm.ODM-MAN     5.0.31.5.%20090322 Veritas ODM manual pages 
     VRTSodm.ODM-RUN     5.0.31.5.%20090322 Veritas ODM commands

3. Check that libodm.sl is present.

   # ls -lL /opt/VRTSodm/lib/libodm.sl
   -rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 14336 Apr 25 18:42 
   /opt/VRTSodm/lib/libodm.sl

To verify that Oracle Disk Manager is running

1. Start the Oracle database.

2. Check that the instance is using the Oracle Disk Manager function:

   # cat /dev/odm/stats
   # echo $?
   0

3. Verify that the Oracle Disk Manager is loaded:

   # /usr/sbin/kcmodule -P state odm
   state loaded

4. In the alert log, verify the Oracle instance is running. The log should contain output similar to the following:

   Oracle instance running with ODM: Veritas 5.1.100.00 ODM Library, 
   Version 2.0
