I have also noticed that if you put /dev/dsk/ or /dev/rdsk inside vds, it's the same.

Starting from 0 will cause havoc, the ASM will overwrite the label in one time making the disk unusable to the operating system until labeled, possibly losing database data.

Do fall into primary-vds trap.
Having one disk service for a lot of disks can cause problems.
I've had issues with such configurations, with systems complain they are out of LDC channels and stuff.

Having fbasphnhhp01-vds and fdbsphnhhp01-vds will add readability and stability.
Naming stuff is really import in oracle VM, when things go wild it's easier to track.

Couple of more hints :

Keep the names of vdsdevs same as vdisks added to ldom.
Enumerate your vdisks with ldm add-vdisk id=N ...

I tend to leave first 0-10 IDs for system stuff (migration of rpools, swap/flash devices devices etc.), and higher numbers for asm devices.

Limit kernel memory consumption (effectively ARC cache)inside LDOM if you are using oracle database on ASM.
Code:
set user_reserve_hint=N # % of total memory reserved for SGA (application in your case)

So a 100GB system with 10GB rpool and oracle home will work nicely with with above value set to 90 (%), with SGA set 80GB, leaving rest for other operations if required.

Be sure to calculate your requirements, it a tunable variable that can be changed during runtime.

This is of course, a choice, which helps in a long run (fire and forget).

Hope that helps and i didn't bore you to death Smilie
