Hi Enrique, suse-list,

this is what id do to enable async i/o:
Oracle 10.1.0.5 and SLES9 SP3, same on SLES9-64

install package libaio-devel
startup parameter
 filesystemio_options=asynch

sqlplus <<EOF
connect / as sysdba
shutdown immediate
EOF

 cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib
 make -f ins_rdbms.mk async_on
 make -f ins_rdbms.mk ioracle

sqlplus <<EOF
connect / as sysdba
startup
EOF

Yast2:
Productivity/Databases/Tools/Oracle
 System /IO
   AIO_max_size=1048576

regards,

Toni

PS: You can get a big speed improvement in enabling write cache for
your RAID/disc
If you do this, be aware of power failure damages to your filesystem
and data.

> First, thank you all, this list rocks!!.
