I told the poster what the facts of the situation were. No write-offs, no judgement calls. Since he also said, and I quote, "I'm just beginning to learn Oracle", I explained WHY Oracle has not seen fit to allow multiplexing of datafiles -that, from the point of view of data protection, it is unnecessary.

And I expressed sensible exasperation at your introducing wish-lists into what was originally a simple question -which was (in case you've forgotten):

QUOTE ON
I know you can stripe tablespaces - but can you mirror them? Perhaps this requires creating two tablespaces and somehow matching them?
QUOTE OFF The subject is closed. Wish on, as much as you like. It ain't gonna happen.
