Distributed InForm study tablespaces
In a production environment, Oracle recommends distributing tablespaces across multiple disks. This table presents a suggested model. In each configuration, it is recommended that you use the C: partition for the operating system and distribute the database and application components across the remaining partitions. Monitor your system to determine the optimal configuration.
- C: and D: are partitions on one disk.
- INFORM, SYSTEM, TEMPBIG are tablespaces.
Note: TEMPBIG is a temp tablespace and the default temporary storage location for the InForm application.
