How to plan for size of Flashback Recovery Area? Best Practices?

cayenneAug 25 2010 — edited Aug 25 2010
Hello all,

I've set up a 5 node RAC cluster, setting up ASM diskgroups for data, and one for FRA. (11Gr2 on RHEL5)

I'm wondering if there are any rules of thumb or guides to know how large to make your FRA? This FRA disk group will serve as the FRA storage area for about 4-5 instances.

What is a good way to figure how much storage I'll need to allocate to each instance...for say a 5 day retention window for each instance via RMAN?

Thanks in advance for any advice and/or links,

cayenne
