Re: Multiple Tablespaces with single mount point?

Even otherwise, is the general recommendation is to store the data and xlog on different volumes a preferred way?

Thank you.

Thank you. I was referring to this link and that's what made me think, what if in the future scenario.

Hello,

I want to know what is the general practice when only one mount point is available. 

1. Use default tablespace

2. Use Default + User Define one tablespace

3. Use Default + User Defined Data + User Defined Index tablespaces

1.

Using non-default tablespace adds backup/restore complications.  Don't do that without a demonstrable benefit.  You will not be able to demonstrate a benefit when you only have a single filesystem.
