Re: undo tablespace

David,

I would start with 11gb as my undo tablespace size. You may be over/under allocated, but that can be adjusted as time goes by. You can use multiple datafiles for the undo tablespace. The syntax is the same as the multiple file tablespace.

A word of warning, automatic undo is not a good choice for a high volume oltp system. What is the highest # of concurrent transactions and the average transaction duration & change (in bytes) for this db?

Regards,
Daniel Fink
