what do you guys think about the best way to use DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST with ocfs? specifically, I'm wondering about archive logs... one thing i really like about using a flash recovery area it's space management features (after i copy my archivelogs to tape, it still keeps a copy around until it needs to reclaim the space) with ocfs v1 i've always wanted to give each node it's own ocfs volume for archiving - to avoid metadata (ocfs directory) contention during file creation. does this mean that if i want to have the advantage of DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST on a RAC system, i really should use ASM instead of ocfs? would it be better not to use this new 10g features until ocfs v2 (which supposedly will handle file creation/deletion operations much better than v1)? curious to hear everybody's thoughts, Jeremy This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual(s) and purpose, and is protected by law.
