Re: Oracle clusterware without RAC

Hi Tony,

Yes, I've done that. Not in a production environment (yet), but it does work 
pretty well. It's easier to use when you have a cluster filesystem, but still 
good uses if you don't have a CFS. 

There's some sample agent code for clusterware at the bottom of this page: 
http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/products/rac/index.html

While I pride myself on knowing as little about licensing as I can without 
getting sued :) , I do know that Clusterware has a relatively unique licensing. 
You can have any number of nodes in a Clusterware cluster (if used for 
non-Oracle software) as long as one node in the cluster has a license for 
Oracle Database. I believe that includes any version/edition of Oracle Database 
license, but I'm not sure about that part.

Subject: Oracle clusterware without RAC

Does anyone use Oracle's clusterware without RAC on linux?
Our Sys Admins want to use it without databases or clustered file
systems.
I see in the manual where Oracle says it's possible, but does anyone
really use it?
