If you are using ASM to manage your disks then yes there are a slew of ASM views that you can use like v$asm_diskgroup.

I've got a feeling that there isn't, but I'd figured that I would check. Thanks in advance! Jeremy P Consider the environment. Please don't print this e-mail unless you really need to.
