Hi, You don't need to buy SunCluster to run 10g RAC or Veritas Cluster Software. 10g CRS can do the clustering in 10g. But the documentation says otherwise. That is a bug in documentation. BTW you don't need any third party volume managers if you decide to use ASM. Just expose a set of disk groups to oracle and oracle can manage your disks also. This will remove your Veritas/any other volume manager layer and you can configure anykind of RAID in Oracle ASM instance. \ KG ----- Original Message ----- From: "dba1 mcc" <mccdba1@xxxxxxxxx> To: <oracle-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, April 16, 2004 12:14 AM Subject: Re: MAX nodes cluster software support RAC on SUN Solaris and Linux? > If I use "Oracle Cluster Ready Services Release 1 > (10.1.0.2) for SPARC ", do I still need buy "SUN > Cluster software 3.X" or "Veritas cluster software for > SUN 4.X"? > > Thanks. > --- K Gopalakrishnan <kaygopal@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Hi MCCDBA: > > > > The # of nodes limitations are coming from the OS > > clusters.
