Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> DB_BLOCK_SIZE/RAID 5 for DEC ALPHA NT 4.0
I am planning to install Oracle 8.0 on Digital Alpha NT 4.0 Server. The
Database will be for Datawarehousing. I am not sure whether DB_BLOCK_SIZE
should be set to 4K or 8K while installing Oracle. What are
advantages/disadvantages of 4K/8K?
Do you have any experience of RAID 5 (Hardware configuration) on DEC Alpha NT 4.0 running Oracle 8.0. Would appreciate your suggestions on it.
Thanks in advance. Received on Thu Nov 05 1998 - 08:38:24 CST
