you only want DBWR_IO_SLAVES or multiple DBWRn if you have datafiles spread over multiple I/O points correct? We are using 'Network Appliance' hard disk array that Im not all that familiar with. It looks like we have 3 I/O points and 5 mount points.
my boss told me that striping data files and redo log files across the I/O points wotn help because there is only 1-2 I/O cards(forget the exact, I hope it isnt hard for anyone to figure out what Im referring to) on the server itself. This does not sound accurate. Since Ive read several books and all say to stripe the files? btw, thanks for the info on the large pool. I can free up about 300MB of memory we aer wasting on that and the java pool for other areas. > > From: Mladen Gogala <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: 2003/06/03 Tue AM 07:39:41 EDT > To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: question about large pool > > Well, I was talking about cursors, sort areas and hash areas.
