Hi Guru,

We will be implementing Oracle in unix machine with Hardware Raid 5. We can't implement Raid 1 as we do not have sufficient disk space.

Initially, we thought of having many mount points .ie. 1 mount point for data files, another for index files, other mount points for redo log, control file, archive log etc. The vendor consultant told us that having many mount points may degrade the system performance. Is it true ? We've decided to have different directories for data files, index files etc but I am still worry about data contention.

Any advice ? Thanks.

Regds,
new bee
