I was aked how I would install 2 Oracle8 databases on 12 RAID disks
to get the most reliability, availability and speed. I am only a newbie
DBA
Does anyone have any book references for a question like this? I
have all of Oracle8's documentation on my hard drive. Does Oracle
provide this sort of expertise or just someone with a systems
administrator background? By the way, is there any difference in how you
would configure this RAID differently if you were to use
Compaq TRU64,HP-UX-11 or Solaris 7 ,for instance? I'm a Unix and
NT/Netware systems administrator trying to fill in for an Oracle DBA, so
so I mentioned if you were running in Archivelog Mode you would want
your
Archivelog on a separate disk and you would want both databases with a 5
+ 1
configuration, in other words, striped with parity over mirrors, so that
you have 3
original disks for each separate database and 3 mirrors with RAID5 on
each disk. One
disk for each DB would have the Archivelog.
Logical Storage Manager.
Thanks for any help. I hope this is not off topic.
