Re: HACMP automatic Oracle failover in non-RAC environment

We evaluated HACMP for clustering but ended up on VCS.  Mostly for political 
reasons.  

Regardless, the single point of failure continues to be storage.  We have a 
large installed AIX base.  Node failure is almost unheard of.  However, storage 
failure seems to be an annual event.
