Sure, just keep your
raid group size at a reasonable level, to avoid double disk failures, and use
multiple raid groups. I had a semi-large volume running RAC for about a
year which had 6 groups of 12, so 72 spindles in the volume. (I
certainly wouldn’t use a raid group of 72
though!)

Subject: RAID Group Size
Limits?
Does anyone on the
list have experience with RAID group size limits?
I seek to convert my
qty 5 small volumes for Oracle into qty 2 volumes (one big, one little) for
oracle and use lots of spindles. In fact, I’d like to just do a big, giant
volume on my filer and put everything in qtrees
shared/exported.
Anyone out there done
this yet? Hit any RAID size limits?
Thx;
