Re : 1. How many of you do run, and are comfortable running, multiple databases on the same server, whether it is partitioned or not ? 2. Do you create a seperate ORACLE_HOME for each instance ? 3. Do you just buy the Oracle DB CPU license on the total number of CPUs on the server ? The

One of the teams here is planning to run anything from 8 to 16 database instances [no indication on sizing yet, but gut-feel SGAs are 200MB to 1GB and DB sizes 500MB to 40GB] on a large server, something like a Sun E6800 or an equivalent HP or Fujitsu server. 1. How many of you do run, and are

I have run/am running multiple oracle databases on a single server on AIX/Linux/W2K/NT although not with sga's in the GB area.Just make sure you get away with your I/O requirements We only had seperate homes for seperate oracle versions, so all 817 databases were in one home and 8.0.5 databases

Hi, On one of the 7 development box (aix 4.3.3) we have 27 instances Oracle 8172. All using the same oracle_home. I can't say it's the fastest response time ;-) As for the licensing we have a mix of CPU and user licences. Stephane Paquette Administrateur de bases de donnees Database

We also run several instances on just about every server we have. Most, but not all share the same Oracle_home. I only create new ones for newer versions of Oracle, but for each database I prefer to use seperate mount points such as: /test/system /test/rbs /test/temp /prod1/system /prod1/rbs

Hemant What you are considering is certainly feasible. Consider how compatible these applications are, whether they have similar requirements in terms of uptime. Are their performance requirements compatible? One factor to consider is future upgrade paths of the applications. We seem to run

Hemant Dick makes a good point about physical memory. The problem with a lot of instances is that they all have fixed amounts of memory (except in 9i, up to SGA_MAX_SIZE), and if one instance needs more memory you can't reallocate unless you bounce it to add memory and maybe bounce several

RE: Running multiple instances on a [large] serverBy environment do you mean instance? If so, couldn't you accomplish the same thing with one oracle home on each server for each version installed? That's what we do in our clustered environments. Each node has an oracle home for each version of
