You also want to use ASM if you're using Oracle 10g. OCFS2 is no longer going to be supported going forward (it only works on Linux, while ASM works across all Oracle Unix platforms).
Anyway you can do ASM even with the internal ATA or SATA drives if you so choose. Ironically back in the 8i days I was all set to get the certification. But life intervened and now I don't need the credential. :P (besides 10g makes much of the tuning necessary in older versions of Oracle obsolete) On 2/18/07, thad <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Same here Im no Oracle expert as well:) Thanks for explaining the db_block_buffer and further googling it has helped a lot. Im thinking of doing some accounting and let this people (our dbas) realized how expensive the resources they are wasting, they should be charged for every thread they want to spawn.
