Given the size of your databases I assume you are using Enterprise RDBMS licenses, not Workgroup.
Yes, you should always run a watchdog but its function is to clean up after dead shared-memory clients, not to prevent a database hang. Also, you should always run a BIW, AIW, and at least one APW.
Since you mention potential data loss: are you using after imaging?
Yes, We are running after imaging after one of 24 hour downtime due to database corruption due to -Mxs issue. We are running BIW, AIW and APW but not POW
We are running Enterprise License.
Thanks a lot....
