Using Kfed utility for ASM

Understanding kfed –
    kfed is an undocumented ASM utility that can be used to read and modify ASM metadata blocks. It is a standalone utility, independent of ASM instance, so it can be used with either mounted or dismounted disk groups. The most powerful kfed feature is its ability to fix corrupt ASM metadata.

Basic kfed command to get some information about your asm disk
Below command will read asm disk DATA1 and give you significant details about disk.
kfed read /dev/oracleasm/disks/DATA1 |egrep -i "kfdhdb.hdrsts|kfdhdb.dskname|kfdhdb.grpname|kfdhdb.fgname|kfdhdb.secsize|blksize|driver.provstr|kfdhdb.ausize"
Sample output –

Legend:
kfdhdb.hdrsts - Status of disk
kfdhdb.dskname - Name of the disk
kfdhdb.grpname - Name of disk group the disk belongs to
kfdhdb.fgname - Name of failure group the disk belongs to
kfdhdb.secsize - Sector size of disk
kfdhdb.blksize - Blocksize of disk
kfdhdb.driver.provstr - Provision string for use with asm
kfdhdb.ausize - AU size

Compile all JSP files in Oracle ebs r12.2

Before you start compiling jsps and following below steps, I recommend understanding some key differences between 11i, r12.1 and r12.2 when it comes to compiling jsps. Please follow below link and then proceed further - One-stop shop to Compile JSPs in 11i, r12.1 and r12.2 1. Take a backup of _pages directory that will be modified due to jsp compilation - $ cd $EBS_APPS_DEPLOYMENT_DIR/oacore/html/WEB-INF/classes/ $ cp -R _pages _pages29dec2019 $ ls -ld _pages* drwxr-xr-x 5 applmgr oinstall 249856 Dec 29 16:36 _pages drwxr-xr-x 5 applmgr oinstall 249856 Dec 29 16:56 _pages29dec2019 2. Stop apache, oacore and oafm services - adapcctl.sh stop admanagedsrvctl.sh stop oacore_server1 admanagedsrvctl.sh stop oafm_server1 3. Compile the jsps manually using the below command - $ cd $FND_TOP/patch/115/bin/ $ perl $FND_TOP/patch/115/bin/ojspCompile.pl --compile --flush -p              4. Check class file last mo...
