| Subj: | | RAID 5/Oracle Migration |
| |
| From: | | Paul Johnson |
Two questions for you all to consider:
1) What level of risk is associated with moving a sizeable (Terabytes) NCR5150 from a RAID 1 to a RAID 5 setup in order to
increase the useable disk capacity? Assume NO fallback and that major outages (> 1-2 days) are a no-no.
2) Are there are clever tricks available for making data available from Oracle/Sequent for load to an NCR 5150 as part of a
migration from one platform to the other? Initial investigations suggest that Fastexport type utilities are not available on Oracle and
that data can only be exported in display rather than native format.
Many thanks,
Paul Johnson.
