Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: Virtual drive on Solaris
Have you considered setting "_DISABLE_LOGGING = TRUE"
instead? It could be just as disastrous... ;-)
Buying an NVRAM unit would probably be more sensible, since at least then you have some probability of the file-system on such a unit surviving node failure or restart.
I don't use Informatica, but I believe it mainly does single-row inserts, so not using the APPEND hint is a blessing anyway. After all, who likes one row in each database block? However, I could be wrong about that and it may actually be performing multi-row/array insertions...
I don't know what your loads are like, but how about something like this instead?
Just an idea (better you than me to try it!)...
