Harvinder...
What is the access patterns of the queries that will be using these
tables... Knowing how the data will be accessed is am important factor in
determining how to set this stuff up... i.e. If your data is historical in
nature and the queries typically access data for via time periods, then a
range partition by date is an excellent choice... It all depends on the
distribution of your data and how it will be accessed...

Hi,
The system is Oracle 9i on Sun 2.8
1) Which partitioning is better to use HASH or RANGE. Do there is some
overhead for oracle
to calculate the hash number
(hash partitioning) to find the particular partition. We need to
partition 2 tables of
sizes 175G and 162G
2 We have about 10 72G hard drives and 22 9G Hard Drives
How many partitions to use (does this number depends upon number of hard
disks).
3) What should be the ideal size of datafiles.
Thanks
-Harvinder
