Note You can also use the dbed_checkconfig command, which is installed with VERITAS
Storage Foundation for Oracle to check these conditions. See “Checking Oracle
Configuration Environment Using dbed_checkconfig” on page 425 or the
dbed_checkconfig(1M) manual page for more information.
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. In the alert log, verify the Oracle instance is running. The log should contain output similar to
the following:
