I have been reading this News Group for the last couple of months and I have seen very little discussion in the area of VLDBs (Very Large Data Base).

I would like to hear from any Oracle production sites running on Unix boxes. For conversation purposes lets say VLDBs are data bases with 30 Gbytes or more data.

• What version of Oracle and O/S are you running?
• How long has this system been running?
• Is your data base distributed?
• Do you use replication and or 2-phase commit?
• How many concurrent users are supported?
• Are you using an OLTP (on-line transaction processing) product?
• What types of problems have you had with networking, security, backups or any other area concerning the DBMS?

More specifically I would like to here about any sites that have been able to run Oracle on an SMP (symmetric multiprocessing) box with a over 100 Gbytes of data.

I realize these questions may cover to much information for a short answer, however I would still appreciate any responses.

Thanks in advance!
