i have a few serious questions. as the last part of a major upgrade of hardware/OS/software in our production hosted environment, we're getting to upgrade the database cluster. now we have a couple ways to go here, linux cluster or sun cluster, but i can sit here and make a good case both for and against using RAC for our production databases. so what is the collective wisdom on the deciding factors to implement RAC? -- Bill "Shrek" Thater ORACLE DBA shrek@xxxxxxxxxxxxx "I'm going to work my ticket if I can..." -- Gilwell song ------------------------------------------------------------------------ one ping to rule them all, one ping to find them, one ping to bring them all, and in the mutex bind them. -- ___________________________________________________________ Sign-up for Ads Free at Mail.com http://promo.mail.com/adsfreejump.htm ---------------------------------------------------------------- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com ---------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to: oracle-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx put 'unsubscribe' in the subject line. -- Archives are at //www.freelists.org/archives/oracle-l/ FAQ is at //www.freelists.org/help/fom-serve/cache/1.html -----------------------------------------------------------------
