Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Oracle on NT with raw devices
Does anyone use raw devices for Oracle datafiles on NT? In the UNIX world
this is common but I am wondering if DBAs for large Oracle on NT
installations use raw drives. What about when NT volume sets cannot be
allocated a drive letter because all drive letters have already been used.
Could Oracle still use a raw volume set that does not have a drive letter.
Reason I'm asking is because I'm working on a product that does backups of
VLDB installations for NT and I need to figure out how Oracle NT customers
are using storage. If you are in such an environment I would appreciate any
info. Thanks.
