RE: RE: 10g new features question for beta testers
Hi, I sat in a presentation up here in Wisconsin. I got the distinct feeling that most of the new features aren't optional. Either you use them or you don't use 10g. I can't remember if ASM was one of those mandatory features. -- Joe Frohne Rawson Oaks Consulting, Remote Oracle Admins http://www.rawsonoaks.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] Oak Creek, WI, USA HUMM, That gives me an even worse feeling.

Its supposed to manage everything. You dont give it a file, you give it entire disks and oracle does everything. Sets up files, manages, I/O, everything. you only look at the tablespace level. you dont even install any software on it. If your on SAN, you dont install SAN software on it.

Oracle 9i has Oracle Managed Files where you give it a directory and then just build tablespaces. The database picks the filenames for you. Now mind you it does work, but I'll be damned if I use it in anything other than a development environment. For some reason Oracle has never gotten over that DUMB SAME (Stripe And Mirror Everything) idea. The concept is great in theory, but in practice it's absolutely abysmal at best. Dick Goulet Senior Oracle DBA Oracle Certified 8i DBA -Original Message- Sent: Friday, December 19, 2003 8:24 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L I saw a presentation from Oracle on 10g new features last night in Reston,VA. I know atleast one other person from the list was there. Since Oracle is releasing details and its going to be released(in theory) in the next 2 weeks, I was wondering if you guys could talk about it. 1. does ASMs work as well as Oracle claims? I always wonder about first generation features... takes most software vendors a couple of generations to get it right(takes any project Im on just as long). This is a radical departure. for those of you who dont know. Oracle claims that they will manage your disks for you. All you do is give Oracle some Raw Disks and Oracle will set up, and handle all your datafiles. All you do is look at logical tablespaces. It will also handle I/O balancing. How well does this work? Anyone test it with a SAN? 2. RAC Load Balancing. Oracle claims that you only need Oracle software from now on. They also claim that you can load balance multiple applications. Lets say you have One application that runs batch loads over night and a transactional application during the day oracle will automatically steal resources from the other when its not busy... anyone test this? 3. Flashback database. Kyte was the presenter and he said that you can keep massive undo areas, so that if you have a failure or delete data you shouldnt have you can have oracle automatically write the DML necessary to bring it back to any point in time. Kyte said that regular EIDE hard drives that you put in home PCs are plenty fast enough for most systems. He recommends getting 4 300 GB drives(1.2 TBs) for about $1400 to do this and to make tape backups off of this since they are really slow. Can any beta testers comment? Im pleased with the rename tablespace feature... that way I dont have to update TS$ anymore... I wonder if it was our complaining that got them to add it :) -- 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).

Re: Development projects: Multiple databases v/s multiple schemas
Hi, We end up doing it both ways at the same time. We have multiple development instances and multiple schemas in each instance. We do this because we are running a large ERP system and each test instance has specific testing requirements so we end up replicating multiple instances on the same machine. Beyond that, all the add-on products that we have either developed or purchased lives in each instance under it's own schema. If I had my choice, I would run one database instance with multiple schemas. This way the resources are only consumed by one instance and your not try to juggle system resources between multiple instances. That can be a problem if your box is already maxed out as one of our development boxes is. Hope that helped, -- Joe Frohne Rawson Oaks Consulting http://www.rawsonoaks.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, For multiple projects we are planning to have a centralized server(as opposed to multiple servers, to improve managability) which all the development teams will use for their backend work.
