Hi everybody!
I have some questions about parallel server. Now we have only one instance
"stand-alone" (no parallel), but we are thinking to switch to parallel
server because we have a couple of sparc 3500 and nobody are using it, and
we think it's good for increase our processing power.
The problem is I didn't work with parallel server and I have a lot of
questions about it:
1) Is mandatory to use raw devices for control files, redo logs & data
files?
2) How we transfer our cooked data files to raw devices data files?
import/export? or exist another better (fast) method?
3) If I start with only one node, performance will be the same of one single
instance (no parallel)?
4) Somebody know how to work with raw devices under solaris? any link? I try
to found someting in metalink but there's no samples...
5) What about backup? I can't put tablespaces in backup mode and copy with
cp... maybe it's time to use rman?
Thanks in advance!
