Planning The Grouping Of Physical Disk Storage Space; Figure 4-5 Ma8000/Ema12000 Storage Subsystem Disk Grouping For A Pdc/O5000 Cluster - Compaq 112726-001 - ProLiant - 6500 Administrator's Manual

Planning the Grouping of Physical Disk
Storage Space
Figure 4-5 shows an example of how the physical storage space for one
12-drive array in an MA8000/EMA12000 Storage Subsystem disk enclosure
could be grouped for an Oracle8i Parallel Server database.

Figure 4-5 MA8000/EMA12000 Storage Subsystem disk grouping for a
PDC/O5000 cluster
Each MA8000/EMA12000 Storage Subsystem contains up to six disk
enclosures. You are advised to configure all the drives in each enclosure as a
single separate logical drive. As Figure 4-5 shows, this requires that you create
a RAID set, create one logical drive, create one extended partition, then create
Shared Disk Storage Array
