Oracle Storage Research
I have been heavily researching Oracle storage best practices since starting my new Oracle RAC project. My new setup will specifically be for replacing a data warehouse that is currently 4.8T. The new data warehouse will start out significantly smaller. An entirely new ETL process will be deployed an then the historical data will be move over to it.
The new setup will be a (2) node RAC installation running Oracle 11G. The storage for this project will be a SAN and utilizing Oracle’s ASM architecture. Specifically we will be running 3Par’s InServ F400. We will be starting out with (40) 450GB 15K drives. We will be running dual 4 GBIT/s fiber channel adapters. Our SAN switches will be running 2 GBIT/s ports with an upgrade path to use 4 GBIT/s switch later.
