You are probably not going to be too happy with the raid5 organization.
Please tell us how the disks are organized inside the array.  Are they
on multiple internal controllers?  Is the cache ram?

Dear Listers,

I'm looking for advice on configuring Oracle under a SAN.  We just got a
new box, an HP UX, with an HP CASA that's connected to an HP MSA1000
with fourteen 72gb drives configured as RAID-5 with Advanced Data Guard,
and two global hot spares on that drive shelf.  All of this is connected
to the HP through two-gb fiber channel host bus adapters.  So far, four
75 gb LUNs have been created so that the primary path to the CASA is
shared between the two HBAs, providing some load balance between the
LUNs -- LUN1 & LUN3 on HBA, LUN2 & LUN4 on the other.

Given, this, are there any recommendations for Oracle's configuration?
Control file, redo placement? Maybe indexes and data placement don't
mean as much any more, but files for recovery should be treated in a
different manner.

Any insights or experience would be helpful.  Most of the information
that I've found is marketing, and a description of what SANs are.  I'm
looking for recommendations for Oracle configuration.  Everything I find
on OTN sends me to the vendor, but the vendor doesn't have anything
specific to Oracle.
