A quick question.

Our 8400 Alpha may be required to run 4 instances of our DB at different location. The 8400 has 2 cpu's. Is this enough horse power given that we have 1.5GB of mem and RAID Disk of 16GB.

The ORACLE DB is quite large in the one instance configuration. I do not know the exact size of the Tablespaces. For installation at the second location, it may be possible to downsize the DB as far as tablespace sizes go.

If downsized, I assume the other related Oracle files (REDO, ROLLBACK, CONTROL, SGA, etc.) would need to be scaled back ??

We are running Oracle 7.1 on OpenVMS 6.2. Forms 4.5.

Thanks
