Carmen,
I know one unhappy customer with NetApp. This customer is using Baan. The average wait time for I/O is:

db file sequential read	13.7ms
db file scattered read	17.9ms

The response time in average consists of: 15% of service time and 85% of wait time due to slow I/O. They complain that the average CPU load is only 15-20%. They have also problem with unhappy final users. The supplier tried to improve the performance but with no major change. If somebody would ask me for the advice about NetApp I wouldn't recommend it.    

Joze

Subject: db datafiles on NetApp FAS940 filer

I am experimenting with creating tablespaces/datafiles on a new NetApp filer we got installed.

The sysadmin configured a dedicated volume out the the 9tb behemoth with a stripe size of 128k, which he tells me is what tech support told him to.

Anybody on the list with a NetApp storage device with Oracle on it? How did you configure it? Wha kind of performance do you get? Any caveats?

Thanks,

Carmen Rusu
DBA
