Don,

I would question that description of ASM but think about the following:
You said that you are going to have your storage already striped and
mirrored with RAID 1+0 so your storage box does already what ASM can
do.

Combining ASM striping with SAN striping be careful - if you are
unlucky enough this combination might lead your ASM to "unstripe" what
SAN striped already. The best for ASM would be to make LUNs presented
as one mirrored disk (two disks raid 1 if you wish).

The author of that article was also an instructor at an Oracle
workshop I attended, and explained it there as well.  Am I giving this
feature too much credit?  I haven't yet gotten to testing, I'm
interested to see if those of you with active implementations have
negative reviews.
