How to increase existing size 350GB to 500GB in

[Matty Sarro]

You can use the raw device without creating a partition, just mark the new
disk as a PV, add it to the VG, then extend the LV, finally grow the
filesystem to accomodate the new space.

Just curious why it's growing so much? Oracle should be storing most of its
files in a DATA/FRA ASM partition?
