Oracle INstall....how to......IBM AIX 5.1L

Hello,

I am using IBM AIX 5.1L for my Oracle DB Server(9.2.0.1)

I have 8 hardisk (hdisk0 - hdisk7) and have at present only 1 Volume Group "rootvg" which is using hdisk0. This means I have hdisk1..hdisk7 still unused. Each hard disk is 36GB.

Now, I wana INSTALL Oracle on this IBM AIX Box. WHat is the BEST and RECOMMENDED way to INSTALL this SOFTWARE on the IBM box?

Do I have to create a separate Volume Group (VG) for oracle...?

Here is what I am planning to do:(correctc me if I am wrong) 1) Create a Volume Group "orclvg"
2) Have this "orclvg" VG use only (say) 2 hard disk...hdisk1 and hdisk2
3) What parametrs should I set for these PP,LP,PV,LV....? 4) I read some document saying that I should install my ORACLE on 2 or more different disk such that in an event if one fails you have other . So how to do that?

Any related information on this is appreciated.
