Robert, Tell me a little more about potential for inode corruption and how this helps? Never heard of that one before. I stick it all in /x/oradata/$ORACLE_SID and distinguish my files by .dbf, .ctl, .arc and .rdo. Also are yall mostly Oracle or are you running anything else?

OFA perfectly helps to separate the datafiles from different database instances. We run well over 300+ Oracle databases here and the ONLY extension we have to OFA is that I add a /data /control and /redo directory to the file systems for just a little extra protection from possible inode corruption.
