I don't understand what good it does to have the control file alone on
your local disk in that situation?  If your SAN with the rest of your
database files is toast, then your control file alone isn't going to do
you much good.  You're going to have to restore from a backup and do an
incomplete recovery anyway, so what's the difference if you do it with
your current controlfile still on your local disk, or if you restore a
control file from backup along with the rest of the database files
you'll be restoring?

Good luck convincing anyone that you NEED two mirrored fast local
drives,
but maybe this will help:
