I would be interested to hear of any problems with 9i/Dell/OCFS/Clariion
as well. My coworker has been fighting with a Windows 9i RAC install
for quite a while.=20
Thanks
Lisa

Itching hands thanks to Piet's hint on this thread.
I have the same experience using 9i on Dell hardware with the EMC=20
Clariion storage using OCFS. Lots and lots of issues. Finally, we've=20
gone to using Polyserve Filesystem. This gave some relieve. The hardware
is still not so stable, but hey, who cares? The combination of SLES-8=20
with Polyserve is a working solution (specially with the 2.6.1 release)!
Cary is right that if you are in the position that you can do with a=20
single instance you should, but there are environments in which a=20
cluster may have benefits. The more complex the solution, the lower the=20
uptime usually is. But if you have a grid-like environement (lots of=20
databases in a pool of servers, you would be capable of "moving" your=20
server around to smear out performance hotspots in your cluster/grid.=20
Lot of hacking, but hey aren't we around for this?
I have tested 10g RAC and my advise is: Wait for the next version to=20
even try it (hopefully by the end of the year). We have build a cluster,
but adding a node was asking too much from the system.
