We have some servers with 6-8 instances. These are typically staging instances and maybe 1 low transaction production instance.
We keep multiple instances on one server strictly for cost. Licensing additional servers would be prohibitively expensive so we bought higher end servers and stacked them with multiple instances. My concern here is with latch contention. I have read that its often best to have db_block_lru_latches set to 2 *CPU. We have 4 CPUs on each server and are an NAS hard disk array from network appliances. Do I have to take into consideration the additional instances on the server when considering latch contention? -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.net -- Author: <[EMAIL PROTECTED] INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.com San Diego, California -- Mailing list and web hosting services --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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).
