Storage optimization using acfs
Problem statement:Lets assume you have a production database of 50 TB in size in and you maintain it in ASM file system with normal redundancy.This implies your storage utilization is 100 TB.In addition you maintain full size several copies of non-production (like dev,test,uat,pre-prod etc) as required by project team. So at some point of time you will reach in a situation where your storage has exceeded warning threshold. How will you handle this situation?
Solution: This problem can be solved using oracle acfs filesystem.Please see below link for detailed documentation
