Hi Alzhy,

Superb explanation. Let me summarized the disk layout again.

Mount Point Name -- Size---------Purpose
/oraclebin----------68 GB(68GB * 1) -- For Oracle Binaries ( Instead of 20 GB I am considering 68 GB)
/oraarch------------204 GB(68GB * 3) -- For Archive Log

/ASMREDO01----------20 GB -- -- For Redo Log
/ASMREDO02----------20 GB -- -- For Redo Log
/ASMREDO03----------20 GB -- -- For Redo Log
/ASMREDO04----------20 GB -- -- For Redo Log

/ASMDATA01-----------68 GB -- -- For Data
/ASMDATA02-----------68 GB -- -- For Data
/ASMDATA03-----------68 GB -- -- For Data
/ASMDATA04-----------68 GB -- -- For Data
/ASMDATA05-----------68 GB -- -- For Data
/ASMDATA06-----------68 GB -- -- For Data
/ASMDATA07-----------68 GB -- -- For Data

/ASMDATA09-----------68 GB -- -- For Data
/ASMDATA10-----------68 GB -- -- For Data
/ASMDATA11-----------68 GB -- -- For Data
/ASMDATA12-----------68 GB -- -- For Data


Also Need one more clarification, Can I install 10GR2 (10.2.0.4) instead of 10.2.0.5 ?

Please reply whenever you have time. Based on your confirmation I shall communicate to my Server & OS team. As they need the disk layout to ready the server for Oracle installation.

I shall wait for your reply Alzhy.

Warm Regards,

You can install 10.2.0.4 but I thought 10.2.0.5 includes sme security, bug and enhancement fixes which may or may not be apropo to your site.

And Yes sir on the disk configuration. Please STRESS the volume group recommendations as well as the STRICT one LVOL on one PV configuration of LVM. ASM will do the striping on the host layer once the rLVOLs are utilized as ASM diskgroups!

IF you are not familiar with ASM -- please seek assistance or peruse the wondeful tool of Google! I am a SysAdmin but I have perused Google and actually helped our DBA Team a lot along the way.
