I wanted to ask the list some advice on a particular ASM
"rule-of-thumb" and advice on diskgroups per host.
We have recently decided upon using ASM, yes I know late to the
party, we have studied quite a few white papers and they often suggest
that you start somewhere between 4 to 8 luns maximum per diskgroup as a
rule-of-thumb. I don't like rules-of-thumb, they suggest that no-one has
any idea and it's a best guess! What do others have as a starting point
basis for the number of raw luns under each diskgroup and why that
number? I appreciate there are many more factors involved and we are
slowly working through lots of these, but I am trying to get some facts
based on experience, rather than simply taking documented suggestions as
gospel truth.
Additionally, my colleague and I are arguing over the merits of
the number of diskgroups per host. Say you have 4 instances on a host,
does each instance have at least two diskgroup each ( DATA+FRA for
example) , or do you simply make big diskgroup and throw all the
instances into it? The "all-in-one" options suggest 'eggs-in-one-basket
to me though.
Any advice from your vast collective experience on these two
points, would be greatly appreciated.
