Hi Rahul,
Here's what I think.
I would eliminate log02 , because redo log files are already mirrored
(D1 is mirrored right?)
Another recomendation is to use RAW for the redo logs.
By eliminating log02, and according to your load "(600,000 rows using
sql*loader) every night", I think
you are going to improve performance a lot.
If you can't use RAW for the REDO, at least try to use aync I/O or
direct I/O on these filesystems.
I would create only one control file mirrored by hardware too.
Also if your internal disks are faster than the external ones, I would
place redo logs over the faster disks. And
I'd leave D1 dedicated to redo logs in order to eliminate seek times.
please someone correct me if I'm wrong
hope it helps
greetings
Diego
