Hopefully I did not miss this in the flurry of replies - but shouldn't the real
question be "why use RAC" rather than "Why not use RAC?" There are tons of
complexities involved in a RAC environment which have been echoed in many
notes. The other thing to keep in mind is that once you purchase the software
and maintenance for RAC, you can not shelf it. You are stuck with it the rest
of your life...so make sure you are 100% sure before you leap...

Just make sure you don't end up having to manage 50 pointless RACs... ;)

Hemant,
That is quite true, but once you've voiced your concerns and
objections (as someone else recently pointed out) your off the hook.

Sometimes being politically correct can mean being professionally
lacking. Lacking in management's duty to protecting shareholders (or
citizen's) money.
