Question:
when installing an oracle server (os:linux):
prior to installing:
whats a good way to partition the diskspace?
((performance and so on)
eg 1 gig for swap, so much for /home, so much for ..

tnx

The Oracle Installation Guide should have a section describing the OFA
(Optimal Filesystem Arch...) Have a look at this. Span your Oracle
datafiles/control files/redo log files accross multiple disks...RAID
0+1 is always nice for speed / availablility...
As far as the OS - your swap space should reflect upon your RAM -
Given the choice, go for more RAM less SWAP (and keep your SWAP slice
on a seperate disk if possible...)

Have fun...
