Which four steps must be performed to achieve this?

You want to create an ACFS on an ADVM volume using a shell script and the appropriate
command-line utilities. These are the requirements:
1. The dynamic volume file must use space in the VOLFILE disk group with a size of 500 M and
be called prodvol.
2. The mount point called /acfs already exists.

Which four steps must be performed to achieve this?

A.
As the Grid Infrastructure owner, run mount -t acfs /dev/asm/prodvol-417 /acfs to mount the file
system.

B.
As the Grid Infrastructure owner, run asmcmd volinfo -d volfile prodvol to determine the volume
information.

C.
As the Grid Infrastructure owner, run asmcmd volcreate -d volfile -s 500M prodvol to create the
volume file.

D.
As the Grid Infrastructure owner, run mkfs -t acfs /dev/asm/prodvol-417 to create the file
system.

E.
As root, run mount -t acfs /dev/asm/prodvol-417 /acfs to mount the file system.

F.
As root, run mkfs -t acfs /dev/asm/prodvol-417 to create the file system.

Explanation:
Creating an ACFS Volume
Create the volume:
$ asmcmd volcreate -G DATA -s 100M testvol
View the volume information:
$ asmcmd volinfo -G DATA testvol
Make a mount point directory:
$ mkdir /u01/app/oracle/acfsdata/testvol
Make the file system (as root):
# mkfs -t acfs /dev/asm/testvol-403
Mount the file system to the mount point:
# mount -t acfs /dev/asm/testvol-403 \
/u01/app/oracle/acfsdata/testvol

Create a file system with the Oracle ACFS mkfs command.
Create a file system using an existing volume device.
For example:
$ /sbin/mkfs -t acfs /dev/asm/volume1-123
mkfs.acfs: version = 11.2.0.1.0.0
mkfs.acfs: on-disk version = 39.0
mkfs.acfs: volume = /dev/asm/volume1-123
mkfs.acfs: volume size = 10737418240
mkfs.acfs: Format complete.
See “mkfs” (Linux or UNIX) or “acfsformat” (Windows). The root privilege is not required. The
ownership of the volume device file dictates who can run this command.

A is wrong. root privilege is required to run mount
B is right. asmcmd volinfo to get the created volume info
C is right. asmcmd volcreate to create a storage volume
D is right. mkfs does not require root
E is right. mount requires root
F is wrong. mkfs does not require root

So C.B.D.E. are correct
