裸设备，是没有经过格式化的分区或磁盘，也叫裸分区（原始分区），不被Unix通过文件系统来读取的特殊字符设备。它由应用程序负责对它进行读写操作。不经过文件系统的缓冲，是不被操作系统直接管理的设备。由于跨过操作系统管理，使得I/O效率更高。在基于SUSE Linux 10上安装Oracle 10g RAC的话，由于Oracle 10g 不支持将ocr与votingdisk 存放在ASM 磁盘中，因此，依然需要为其使用裸设备方式。SUSE Linux裸设备的配置与其他的Linux稍有差异，下面将具体描述。

1、先对磁盘进行分区，sdd如下面的方法炮制
#下面的示例中使用sdc和sdd来用作裸设备，一块用于ocr,一块用于votingdisk
bo2dbp:~ # fdisk /dev/sdc
Device contains neither a valid DOS partition table, nor Sun, SGI or OSF disklabel
Building a new DOS disklabel. Changes will remain in memory only,
until you decide to write them. After that, of course, the previous
content won't be recoverable.
Warning: invalid flag 0x0000 of partition table 4 will be corrected by w(rite)

2、分区后的结果
bo2dbp:~ # fdisk -l /dev/sdc
Disk /dev/sdc: 209 MB, 209715200 bytes
64 heads, 32 sectors/track, 200 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 = 1048576 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdc1 1 200 204784 83 Linux
bo2dbp:~ # fdisk -l /dev/sdd
Disk /dev/sdd: 209 MB, 209715200 bytes
64 heads, 32 sectors/track, 200 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 = 1048576 bytes

3、配置裸设备
bo2dbp:~ # vi /etc/raw
# /etc/raw
#
# sample configuration to bind raw devices
# to block devices
#
# The format of this file is:
# raw<N>:<blockdev>
#
# example:
# ---------
# raw1:hdb1
#
# this means: bind /dev/raw/raw1 to /dev/hdb1
#
# ...
#Add new raw devices
raw1:sdc1
raw2:sdd1
