ASM 11g Release 2 and HP Disk Owner Patch

It is always fun with ASM. When upgrading from 11gR1 to 11gR2 ASM might not work properly in discovering the disks. There are some relevant bugs reported with the disk discovery issue when upgrading to 11.2.0.2

The fix is to apply PHCO_41479 which is the latest patch. In my case the server had a much lower version yet the same diskowner patch PHCO_40381.

11.2.0.3 did not have any issue when upgrade and discovering the asm disk with PHCO_40381.
Saved a big downtime in getting the September 2011 HPUX Bundle Patch
