20 Key players Tablespace Datafiles Volumes/ Filesystems/ Diskgroups LUN Disks DATABASE STORAGE

21 Databases layout on storage Tablespace Datafiles Volumes/ Filesystems/ Diskgroups LUN Disks

22 Database Storage Layout Best Practice Spread database components such as table spaces, data files and ASM disk groups across all available disks Storage Device and Host Volume Mapping

23 Database Storage Layout Best Practice What is in your Storage System? Host Adapters Processors Cache Disk Adapters LUNs Disks

24 Database Storage Layout Best Practice Spread Tablespace across Host Adapters and Ports Host Adapter

25 Database Storage Layout Best Practice.contd Check for RAID Protection Check for Host Volume Sharing

26 Database Layout Best Practices Considerations Databases sharing storage disks, front-end ports LUNS spread across disks I/O throughput spread across Host Adapters and Ports Disks spread over Disk Adapters Proper RAID protection Host volume sharing Host Adapters :Port # Processors Cache Disk Adapters LUNs Disks
