Hi,

I'm at a site where we're looking at setting up DataGuard as DR for a RAC
system.
The config for production is:

 - 6 Nodes (Dell 2950 servers)
 - 1 instance per node
 - Windows Server 2003
 - 10.2.0.2
 - SAP is the application

On the DR site we only have 3 nodes, we'd like 6 but 3 is all that we're going
to get.

The question is should we configure DR to have 1 instance per node (same as
production) but this leaves only a total of 3 instances and hence 3 redundant
UNDO tablespaces etc or have 2 instances per node?

Also is it best practice to have the instance names on DR the same as in
production.

Any experiences, advice, "best practice" etc. for this is most welcome.

Thanks very much,

Chris
