Shiva, For a multi tera byte storage, I would be more worried on ASM AU SIZE than the LUN size. You will potentially pollute the shared pool with default 1MB extents. I would go for 8MB extent side and there is an underscore parameter to do that. Raise an SR and get the support blessing before you change the _asm_au_size. -Gopal On 9/26/07, Shivaswamy Raghunath <shivaswamykr@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hello. > > In the process of getting about 6 Terra Bytes of storage on EMC > SAN(Symmetrix) for Data disk group and about 3TB for FRA (On Clarrion) for > the DSS database.
