We are about build a 16 Gbytes Oracle-database and would like to gather
some info from other Oracle-users:
Backup method experiences:
o Method, off-line + archiving, on-line ... ?
o Hardware, what about backing 16GBytes in an 1-2 hour window ?
o Recovery, how long time does it take ?
o Is EXPORT a possible complement ?
Disk systems:
o Is SCSI2 a bottleneck ?
o IBM 9333 serial discs (RS6000/AIX), experience,
performance ?
o What about RAID level 0 and 1. How does striping improve
performance (we assume 1 GBytes discs)? Shadowing, any comments... ?
o Is RAID5 very bad for performance?
