Hi Tim and thanks for answering.
Let me question (a little) your answer.
Why do you place SYSTEM in a dedicated disk?
is SYSTEM tablespace always supposed to have a hight
access rate? if this is true, is it for writing or
reading? and why?
I think that SYSTEM has in fact a low access rate (in
most cases), because its data is almost always cached
in the SGA (data dictionary structure)
I would do the following:
(for a write intensive system)
system, oracle software,temp DISK1 rollback, control1 DISK2 data,control2 DISK3 data DISK4 indexes DISK5 redo DISK6
(for a read intensive system)
system, oracle software,temp DISK1 rollback, control1 DISK2 data,control2 DISK3 data DISK4 index DISK5 index,redo DISK6
please let me know if I'm wrong,
and comments would be appreciated
thanks
