| We are looking to move to Oracle 10g within the next 12 months and I had a few preliminary questions. Is Oracle 10g similiar to the Oracle parallel server of old? Basically we have hit a bottleneck in the SGA and have reached a point where simply throwing more hardware at the problem with not buy us much (except inflated support and software costs) So, is 10g still the same old 2 or more systems looking at the same physical disks with an SGA on each node? (thus I will be using raw disks for oracle storage?) If so, does Veritas support this with their Storage Foundation for Oracle product? We are now using Veritas DBE 3.5 and I know that only one system can have a disk group imported at any one time, so am I right by assuming DBE will not work for a 10g installation? I mainly only need vxfs capabilities so if I must use raw disk devices I no longer really need Veritas. All my storage is SAN attached and all systems in my enteprise can see all logical disks, so I don't need any volume management. (all RAID is done via hardware on the SAN itself) I'm due to go to oracle 10g training soon but I had some budget deadlines due this week and am trying to get a ballpark cost of hardware/software and support. Thx, rhugga |
