| Is any one running production Oracle 10g on Penguin Computing's Relion
2200 servers or other Penguin Computing's servers? Please suggest any
good Intel processor based servers for running Oralce 10g.
Thanks,

Dear Yasaswi Pulavarti,
Are you talking about Oracle 10g on an Intel based server running a Red
Hat version?
I would suggest a HP Proliant machine. Sizing depends on your or your
customer needs.
IBM XSeries can do the job too, but atleast in the Netherlands IBM has
(might now be had) problems to keep up with the delivery periods. For my
last project I needed a different backup unit, because dds4 is supported
under Linux, but a dds4 autoloader for 6 tapes was not. Because of that
I ordered a LTO-drive. Toke 2 month to get it, they said it would only
take 12 working days to the reseller.

| Hi Jan:
Yes I mean Oracle 10g running on an Intel based server running Red Hat
3 AS. What is your experience with Xeon EM64T processors? How do they
perform with regard to 64 bit computing? Is buying a server with Intel
Itanium processors better than buying servers with EM64T processor
technology.
Thanks,
Yasaswi

| Hi Yasaswi,
For the company I work for Xeon EM64T is to modern, we use technology
that has proven itself. So Oracle 10g is also a little too new.
I myself am using a clone with dual Xeon 2 GHZ processors with 2 GB of
memory and more than enough diskspace on IDE for the test installation.
I use RH EL ES 3.0, because I do not need the Cluster features for my
installation tests.
I cannot tell you whether or not this may perform ok, because I am a
sysadmin and not a Oracle DBA. So I installed the RDMS and iAS software
and that is it.
I would suggest Ultra-SCSI 320 disks for a production environment.
So a thing to consider is, do you need clustering or not. If not you
could save money by following the system requirements for RH EL ES 3.0.
Regards,
Jan Gerrit
