Re: Oracle Standard Edition & RAC

>I'd be interested to hear about this as well.
   
  IBM Joint Solutions Center did some decent testing of a two site, two storage 
system, 2 node cluster and put together the detailed tech architecture and ran 
through the following tests which essentially boiled down to crashing each 
individual component of the overall system (controller, storage arrays, network 
interfaces, servers, instances, etc) to see how it responded.  Since it was 
only 2 nodes, 2 sites, they didn't do more elaborate testing of killing parts 
of the surviving cluster while it was reconfiguring (as kevin suggested in an 
earlier thread)
  
  Power off Server
  Unplug client network
  Unplug Interconnect cable
  Halt ?q on Linux
  Kill oracle Instance
  Kill ASM Instance
  Unplug fiber attachment
  Power off one FastT
  Fiber card Failure
  Disk failure - LUN_ocr 
  Disk failure - LUN_voting
  Disk failure - LUN_data
   
  on 10gR1 and 10gR2 and documented the results.  it is all in a ppt I can send 
your way if you are interested..  I am sure you have also seen the stuff on OTN 
about it in the MAA section of OTN.
   
  10gR1 had some issues/limitations, in 10gR2, the full Oracle stack worked 
when you put a third voting disk in an external location.
