Hello everyone, Our configuration is: ====== DB Tier: OS: SunOS 5.8 ver: 9.2.0.6 ===== apps tier: we have 2 apps tier 1st has (web server & form server) os: sunOS 5.8 2nd has (admin server and CM). It is on same server as DB tier.

Hello everyone, Just read through new post in Steave Chan BLOG "10gR2 Database Split Configurations for Release 11i" http://blogs.oracle.com/schan/2006/06/28#a376 In that context I have got the following question: - How many Oracle shops using "Split" configuration ? - How many use "Shared APPL_TOP" configuration ? - How many of us use separate APPL_TOP for each APPS host involved in PROD env executing - How many of us keep CM tier on the same server as DB executed? Just wonder if we can make a short survey other here (in the list). Please find description of two enterprise configuration that I currently working with. Feel free to copy my Q&A and share your configuration with rest of us. Thank you in advance, -- Yury +44 7738 013090 (GMT) ============================================ http://otn.oracle.com/ocm/jvelikanovs.html ============================ CONFIG 1: ============================ DB OS = Tru64 DB ver = 9.2.0.5 DB cfg = 4 node RAC (interconnect = memory chanel, fs=cluster file system from Tru64) DB & APPS relationship = Split (db located on complictly separate servers then Apps processes.

CM are running on all APPS servers. ------------------------------------------------------- ============================ CONFIG 2: ============================ DB OS = Linux RH AS 3.0 DB ver = 9.2.0.5 (10.2.0.2 in test, going to implement in PROD within next 2 months) DB cfg = 1 node (RAC on 2 nodes will be implemented in 2 months, interconnect = switched ethernet, fs=OCFS) DB & APPS relationship = Split (db located on completely separate servers then Apps processes. DB tier is managed by autoconfig [there is appsutil dir]) STORAGE = EMC APPS OS = Linux RH AS 3.0 APPS cfg = 4 nodes Shared Appl Top (FS served from separate NFS cluster) APPS BL = load balanced using cisco LB switch APPS CM = CM (Concurrent Managers) separated from DB servers.
