i want know is kfed/amdu is avaliable on windows and how to use is ?
thanks!

and Connor said...

Those tools are available in the Windows distribution

KFED

To use it, follow the instructions in MOS note 1485597.1

(but needing to use it should be a rare thing)

I know this article exists, and I've read it before
The question is:
The usual syntax used for reading ASM disk header is:
kfed read <your_device>
block device files can be read on linux if i run 
kfed read /dev/asm-diskb

But in windows if I run
kfed read  \\.\ORCLDISKDATA01

will returns only an error
D:\app\19.3\grid\bin>kfed read \\.\ORCLDISKDATA01
KFED-00303: unable to open file '\.\ORCLDISKDATA01'
ORA-15031: disk specification '\.\ORCLDISKDATA01' matches no disks

I don't know how to specify this <your_device> on windows.
It doesn't say how to do it on windows.
This is where I don't know,so i ask tom.
