Here is the link for the best practice guide http://media.netapp.com/documents/tr-3633.pdf I will be using either rhel 6 or oracle linux 6. And as of now I was planning on using iscsi.

What will your OS be? To which Oracle version are you migrating Do you have NFS or FC connectivity between your new server and the netapp?

The netapp best practice guide suggests using asm for only the cluster files, but Oracle says I should be using asm for datafiles and log files. Is anyone using NetApp with or without asm that could offer a suggestion? Thanks Randy -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
