Vikas,

Spend an hour on reading this usenet thread:

http://groups.google.nl/groups?hl=nl&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&threadm=brjz8.15%24707.245%40news.oracle.com&rnum=1&prev=/groups%3Fhl%3Dnl%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26oe%3DUTF-8%26q%3Drogers%2Bseparate%2Bdata%2Bindex

It will open your eyes about separating data/index.

Still not sure about the redolog stream...Because of the sequential nature of redologfiles. I've read tests that 'prove' it doesn't matter much whether you separate your redolog from 'ordinary' datafiles or not. It does simplify things when you pure SAME.

Regards,
Hans

Thanks Gaja !  Does it also make sense from a performance perspective
(I/O issues due to concurrent access of index and data ) to separate
them or is that point moot once you apply the SAME methodology ?

Vikas,

The answer is an enthusiastic yes. This is purely from
an administrative and manageability standpoint. For
example, if you have INDEX and DATA segments separated
in 2 different tablespaces, the backup of these
tablespaces can be done INDEPENDENTLY. This is
relevant, as if you were to rebuild your indexes using
the NOLOGGING option between 2 backup jobs. If that
were the case, then all you will need to do after the
rebuild is complete, is to backup only the INDX
tablespace.

This is a best practice (if not a requirement) in most
production shops, unless you think you can re-re-build
your indexes in the event of media failure and you
lose your INDX tablespace.


Hope that helps,
