Thanks for any and all input anyone may have.

We have Oracle v7.3x Enterprise Server running on our HP9000 server.

We are in the process of reviewing mirroring and RAID options that we wish to implement early next year.

I vaguely remember Oracle recommendations against RAID 5 and in favor of RAID 0+1, although I couldn't dig up any specific info.

We are looking at both hardware and software mirroring and RAID options.

Does Oracle have any white paper re: using RAID with Oracle databases?

Thanks in advance for all replies.
