Operating Systems AIX Anyone has experience with mirroring vg for Oracle Database and Application Post 302785435 by DGPickett on Monday 25th of March 2013 03:49:40 PM

If you can segregate high churn and query from low churn and query (work in progress versus quiescent history), RAID alone is fine for history, but mirror is better for both high churn and high query.

For instance, RAID with 5 drives 1-5 is striped so drive 5 block zero is parity for superblock 0, and drive 5 block 1 starts superblock1. Every write writes all 5 drives and every read can only be had from one device, but sequential reading is striped 5 ways. Writing is striped 4 ways since parity takes the 5th drive.

In practice, SAN mirrors are often raid at a lower level, so there can be a hidden cost, since you cannot reclaim the raid %.

NAME
fribidi_set_mirroring - set mirroring on or off SYNOPSIS
#include <fribidi.h> fribidi_boolean fribidi_set_mirroring(fribidi_boolean state); PARAMETERS
fribidi_boolean state New state to set. DESCRIPTION
This function is used to turn character mirroring on or off. Character mirroring is the act of replacing a mirrorable glyph (character), eg. Left paranthesis, with the matching glyph, eg. Right paranthesis, in a right-to-left resolved context. If your rendering engine does mirroring itself, you may want to turn it off here. This flag is on by default. This function is deprecated and only used with other deprecated functions. RETURNS
The new mirroring status. SEE ALSO
