Steps to enabling the Flashcache mode:
This can be done in rolling as well as non-rolloing manner.
First check flashcache mode with below command on all cell servers with the use of dcli utility on DB node. It can be check on cell each server also with cellcli utility.
dbnode1#dcli -l root -g cellgroup "cellcli -e list cell detail" | grep "flashCacheMode"
10.156.110.10: flashCacheMode: WriteThrough
10.156.110.11: flashCacheMode: WriteThrough
10.156.110.12: flashCacheMode: WriteThrough
10.156.110.13: flashCacheMode: WriteThrough
10.156.110.14: flashCacheMode: WriteThrough
10.156.110.15: flashCacheMode: WriteThrough
10.156.110.16: flashCacheMode: WriteThrough
Step-1
Also we can find flashcache mode in each cell by executing below command:
cellcli>list cell detail
flashCacheMode: WriteThrough --->Currently flashCacheMode configured as WriteThrough
Step-2
Now drop flashcache on each cell server: (If you are following rolling manner then do one by one on each cell server)
cellcli> drop flashcache
Step-3
Be sure asmdeactivationoutcome is YES before disabling grid disk
CellCLI> list griddisk attributes name,asmmodestatus,asmdeactivationoutcome
Step-4
This can be done in rolling as well as non-rolloing manner.

dbnode1#dcli -l root -g cellgroup "cellcli -e list cell detail" | grep "flashCacheMode"

10.156.110.11: flashCacheMode: WriteThrough
10.156.110.12: flashCacheMode: WriteThrough
10.156.110.13: flashCacheMode: WriteThrough
10.156.110.14: flashCacheMode: WriteThrough
10.156.110.15: flashCacheMode: WriteThrough
