Hello list!
We have a shiny new CX600 for Oracle 92080 Win 3k RAC cluster. For the array I've been allocated 16 72GB drives for data and a few others for redo and temp.

If I look at the data disks my initial inclination is to SAME and create one big LUN
composed of 16 disks RAID 10. My storage guys are telling me to not create on big LUN
but rather a few smaller RAID 10 sets and then do the METALUN thingie.

This is where I'm confused can someone shed some light on METALUNS and whether I should
look at one big RAID 10 set or a couple of smaller ones concatenated with METALUNS? Thanks

Steve
