Thanks Mladen. I appreciate your feedback.
ODA is certainly not just a Linux box with Oracle, ASM and ACFS. And
yes, it is RAC.

OK, do you get any license savings? How is it licensed? Is it licensed
per CPU core or is it a fixed cost? As for the files on ACFS, I'm not
sure that's an advantage. ASM does a pretty good job by itself,
especially with the newer releases, where I can copy the files in and
out of ASM using asmcmd. In contrast with ASM, extent based file systems
like ACFS are susceptible to fragmentation and ACFS has no defragmenter.
FS snapshots are a nice thing, but every storage manufacturer has disk
snapshots. It's not a big deal.
