Why would I need to do cold backup in the 1st place? What would be
an advantage of having one? RAC is an availability solution, so why
would I want to shut it down? The only reason for shutting RAC down

RAC with na archive logs? Why would need that in the 1st place? A large NUMA 
box like HP Superdome would probably be much faster then RAC, especially
for DW purposes.
