Has symioctl fallen from grace ??
Hi all,
Following on from my earlier query, support in Cork suggested a read of the latest (1.1) version of "Oracle Databases on EMC Symmetrix Storage Systems Solutions Guide".
In almost 300 pages, there isn't a single mention of symioctl.
I know it's still there in SE 6.3 and 6.4, but one wonders if it's outlived its usefulness when, for example "alter database begin backup" in Oracle 10g puts all tablespaces into hot backup mode for you. This wasn't available in Oracle 8/9 hence symioctl to the rescue.
What do you think ?
Cheers,
Nick
