There's no point in mirroring control files on the same disk. Control files should be mirrored across disks. That way, if one disk crashes you can get a copy of the current control file from another disk (or just drop that control file from your init.ora file). Control files are small and have minimal disk I/O.
If you are mirroring your disks in hardware there is nothing to be gained by mirroring control files and redo logs in Oracle. -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California -- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists -------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
