Thanks for all the replys.

Im personally a little more unknowledgable about disk subsystems.

I understand what SAN and NAS are but not JBOD?

Im assuming Joel Garry and "hpuxrac" is saying is when you have networked storage versus direct attached there is a greater possiblity of issues. ( one being keeping a prod and standby in sync ? )

Dont understand why Oracle offers RAC on 10G Standard but NO block level media recovery?
Also no incremental backups. Makes no sense.

Seems to me if you have the need for RAC you definitely need the other two. Maybe Im wrong.

This maybe outside the thread but any "notoriously" bad subsystem vendors? ( poor support, poor quality )

thanks again for all your replies. I have enough to go do further reading to gain more understanding. Received on Thu Nov 03 2005 - 09:20:46 CST
