Would anyone care to share any experiences/myths regarding storing online Oracle database datafiles on iSCSI devices? Was a dedicated GigE card used?
Have you used TCP/IP offload engines (in hardware) to reduce CPU load on the server?
What type of RAID configuration was underneath the hood of the storage unit

and what stripe sizes were supported?
Oh yeah, how much cache did it offer?
And the closer ... what color was it?

thanks.

Paul
