If each schema has it's own tablespace, then you can do Point In Time Tablespace 
Recovery.  If all schemas share tablespaces then that would be a problem.

Off the top of my head I can see this problem also. Is there anyone who is expert at 
recovery has a view.
Dick - how can you consolidate 8 companies into one schema - they probably all have 
different inventories,equipmet etc.. + all have their own interface to Oracle 
Financials.

  Something to ponder. The archive logs are tied to the system. Thus, if you want to 
recover to a point in time for a multi-schema /one instance system, if one schema gets 
rolled back - everything gets rolled back.
   
  We had this same issue.  Perhaps someone knows a way around this.

    1.  Is that performance gain absolutely necessary?
     
    What happens if one company goes down and takes down them all.
     
     
    On another note, I tend to agree on lesser instances against more instances.  
Easier to tune, better perforamance due to what I call instance wastage and much 
easier to maintain.  But if one system changes alot, has significiantly different 
access methods, or goes up and down more than anyone, I would evaluate seperate 
instances.

      Oracle 8.1.6 and Solaris
      I'm going to inherit production databases when I start my new job next week. I 
gather that the production database consists of 8 schema's (8 companies) that are all 
in one database. Its an ERP package called Maximo and it interfaces to Financials 11i 
databases (don't know if this is multiple databases or schema's yet).
      Apparently there is some data passing between companies and multiple schema's 
perform better than using database links with multiple databases, and this is the 
reason for multiple schema's.
      Does anyone have an opinion on this. If I'd have done it I would have done 
multiple databases as they are separate companies, but I'm open to comments as not 
quite got my head round it yet, plus I've been vacationing (partying) for 3 weeks.

      Thanx

      Sam
