This book will make you an expert on ASM. 20 Dec 2007
By T. Roach - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
One of the authors of this book is the director of development for ASM. Who would know more about it than the developers? The other 2 implement it in many different environments. Lastly, the technical reviewer Charles Kim wrote the 11g new features book for Apress. There could not be a better group of people to write a book about ASM and review it than these individuals.

I would highly recommend this book for any DBA that will be working with ASM and / or RAC. The high performance, ease of use, and low cost make it a very attractive solution. This book will teach you everything you need to know about ASM (that's why it's called an "Under-the-Hood" guide). It also makes an excellent reference.

Just in Time... 9 Dec 2007
By K. Gopalakrishnan - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Someone recenlty mentioned that Oracle Automatic Storage Management (ASM) is probably the best thing ever happened to Oracle next to SQL*Plus. I would second that. However there was no definitive text available in the market and Nitin & co perfectly filled the gap with this classic one.

This book starts with the basics of the storage technology and moves towards the center of the ASM with deep discussions on ASM data structures, ASM in operation and ASM troubleshooting. Nitin probably probably knows more about ASM than anyone I know and excels in explaining the complex technologies in easy to understand manner. You will immensely benefit from his wisdom and real life experience.

A must read for Oracle Storage Administrators and DBAs working with RAC/ASM.

a good Oracle ASM read 6 May 2010
By Euegene Roytman - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a definitely a good book. Contains plenty of useful info. However don't be misguided by "covers oracle 10g and 11g". As of 11.2 a lot of things have changed like introduction of Grid Infrastructure, etc that makes installation and management a bit different, but I believe the concepts will stay the same. An updated online chapter on new 11.2 features would be nice, but for lack of anything else I would give my both thumbs up for this book, especially if you deal with 10.2-11.1 versions.
