Here is an informative article entitled Sane SAN, by James Morle that
describes the use of SAN and NAS from a database performance perspective.
Good reading...

Stefan - By NAS, I assume you mean Network Attached Storage. We use a Net
Appliance on our test server and it works well for the purpose. Basically we
have about a dozen Oracle instances which are used infrequently, so it
provides tons of cheap storage that isn't used that much. I found out the
hard way that you can overwhelm it with too many simultaneous heavy batch
jobs. My guess is that with both RAC and NAS the key is to configure the
highest-speed dedicated connections possible.

Hello everybody,
I was wondering if anybody has real hands-on experience with either a
combination of both RAC and NAS or just running 9i on an NAS. What are the
pros and cons ? Does anybody have some input on this topic ? Maybe some
helpful links besides technet ?
TIA
Stefan
