Hi,

Does someone know how Oracle will decide to which instance a service will 
failover if multiple instances are marked as available for that service?

Is it to the least loaded node?
Is it the same node to which the vip of the failed node will failover?

The environment consists out of a 3 node rac and Oracle version is 10.2.0.4 on 
windows 2003 (not my decision).

Unfortionatly I don't have permission to fail some nodes to test it myself ...  
 :-(
