UNIX server sizing for Oracle

[jbush]

Can anyone point me at tools or documents that would help in sizing a UNIX server to run Oracle? I need something that, at high level, will say for such as such application, doing this and that in Oracle, you will need so many processors of so much power, with so much memory, etc.. In other words, I need to give a budgetary design for the appropriate server/storage or server/storage upgrade, based on the Oracle requirements.

Thanks, Jonathan

Hi Jonathan,

I was wondering if you found any such tools to help you size the hardware running Oracle? If you have, I would greatly appreciate if you could point me to them, as I also have a need.

Thanks,
Khalid
