Re: Q: Filesystem choice for log_archive_dest

As long as your archiver processes are able to keep up with the log file 
switches, it doesn't matter what type of filesystem they're on. If you start 
seeing the archiver lag behind, or worse, you system comes to a screeching 
halt because it can't perform a log switch, you can increase the number of 
archive log processes (if the disks supporting the log archive dest(s) can 
handle more load) or store the archive logs on faster I/O. Typically this 
takes the form of LUNs on a RAID 1+0 using your file system of choice. For 
best performance, give the archivelogs their own set of disks.
