Hi,
Couple of quick queries -
1. In terms of Oracle data replication - is it worth using low level data replication to another SAN (eg using NetApps tools) or do it via Oracle itself ? Which is 'safer' / 'faster' ? Whats the bandwidth requirement comparison for SAN replication vs database replication ?
2. What sort of space utilisation do people 'allocate' for their snapshot cycle ? Vendors quote storage space and snapshot functionality but seem to gloss over the fact that snapshots eat into the SAN's available space.
Thanks in advance,
Raj.
