We raid 5 on an AIX box, we have 89 mount points for database files (data
and or index) as well as mount points for different kinds of scripts and
files, redo and archival. We had one problems with Fork Function Failed for
a while, Oracle said it was AIX, IBM said it was Oracle. We upped the
paging space significantly and haven't had any problems since. Ours is more
of an ODS/Reporting/Pre datawarehouse kind of environment, use loader to
incrementally update every night with datafiles from the OLTP Datacom
databases on the Mainframe... so in an OLTP I can't say for sure if you will
find problems.

Hi Guru,
We will be implementing Oracle in unix machine with Hardware Raid 5. We
can't implement Raid 1 as we do not have sufficient disk space.
Initially, we thought of having many mount points .ie. 1 mount point for
data files, another for index files, other mount points for redo log,
control file, archive log etc. The vendor consultant told us that having
many mount points may degrade the system performance. Is it true ? We've
decided to have different directories for data files, index files etc but I
am still worry about data contention.
Any advice ? Thanks.
Regds,
new bee
