Barry,
RedHat has a limit of 8GIG partitions on the disk. I have 2- 40 GIG drives with 5
partitions each. One is used for indexes anf the other one is for data. The original
drive is for the exe's and swap, and Oracle. To make things simpler to manage i spread
my data and indexes (partitioned by year) acrocc the different partitions. All data
and index datafiles are LMT and the largest I have so far is 2 GIG made up of uniform
extents of 20 MEG each. Works real fast on a table of approx 6 GIG in total size.

I am setting up a new linux server (redhat 6.2 & oracle 8i 8.1.7) with a
1Ghz Processor and 512Mb RAM. How large should individual data files in a
tablespace be allowed to grow? I can't find any advice on this in my oracle
manuals/books. Is there a data file size that starts to hurt oracle. I've
got one tablespace that will have 1-1.5 Gb of data. Should I allow a
datafile to grow to that size, or would oracle like it better if I split it
into 3 500Mb datafiles? Likewise, how should I handle the SYSTEM
tablespace? Should I leave it as 1 large datafile or should it be broken
into smaller ones?
I would also like to know what good oracle email lists are available to ask
dba related questions other than this one.
Thanks,
