Hi,
After reading Steve Adams' tip on making temp files
quick io. I posed this question to Veritas as they had
told us not do so. The answer they give is the
following.
Temporary datafiles should not be converted to quick
i/o files. The following is an excerpt from the
administrator's Guide: Tablespaces marked TEMPORARY
can be sparse, which means that not all blocks in the
file are allocated. Quick I/O files cannot be sparse,
as Quick I/O provides a raw-type interface to storage.
If a sparse file is converted to a Quick I/O file, the
Oracle instance can fail if Oracle attempts to write
into one of these unallocated blocks.
I would appreciate your thoughts on this?
Johnson Job
