Mirrored disks Vs duplexed logs

Hello world,

This seems a daft question, but here goes.

Oracle recommends having duplexed redo logs in case of disk failure. I read that to be similar to mirroring. If a database resides on a system that has disk mirroring, do the redo logs still have to be duplexed - I cannot think of a reason to still have more than one 'database defined' copy. Does any one know of any reason to keep two 'database configured' copies.

Bye,

Steve
