Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Datafile sizes
Looking for comments & experiences regarding sizes of datafiles.
We have a large (6+ TB) OLTP database, which currently has 2300+
datafiles.
A while ago, we stopped adding datafiles and were exclusively extending
them.
But we are wondering how far we can/should go, with the size of individual
data files.
Currently about 30% of the datafiles are at 8 gig.
BTW - this particular application resides on VMS.
Any ideas/thoughts/comments would be appreciated.
Thanks.
