Hi everyone,

I have recently been asked to implement Oracle Parallel Server. I am an ex-Sybase DBA and little knowledge about Oracle, but figured this would certainly be a fun experience...

Anyway, I have a few questions about implementation:

  1. Tips on administration? is this much more difficult than Oracle without the parallel option?
  2. disk layout and user activity? i take it being careful how you layout the disks, objects, etc. is important. is oracle pretty good about managing multiple instances trying to write to the same disks? can you monitor how much thrashing is going on to the same disk?
  3. any other best practices or big caveats?

thanks in advance,
