Storage Configuration

Hi,

I have a question to the experienced users, how to configure my database storage.

I'd like to install an oracle database on a single server, 11g2 on OEL 6.3. It is an HP Server with RAID controller and 6 disks. I use 2 disks as RAID1 for the OS, so I have 4 disks for the whole database.

In the install guides I found the following recommendations for ASM:

  • use 2 disk groups (data and recovery area)
  • have 4 disks in each group
  • use hardware RAID for mirroring

I sea these options to setup the storage, which one is the best:

  1. Setup two RAID1 Volumes with the RAID controller, use each Volume for a ASM disk groups with external redundancy (separate disk group for data and recovery area)

Howdy, Stranger!
