Karl, the following might help: Linux Cert Matrix -> CFS section: OCFS2 is supported with EE but not SE - http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/clustering/certify/tech_generic_linux_new.html. PS! If this is on multi-core Itanium, note the need for a Java workaround during installation - see MOS note 400227.1. Hope this helps! Regards!

The current OS they are now is RHEL 4.6 (2.6.9-67.EL)... so the OCFS2 rpm 1.2.9-1 (for ia64) will be used. My problem is, I can't see any authoritative document or statement that certifies Oracle 9i RAC on OCFS2. Although looking at it at OS and OCFS2 compatibility (above).. it is possible. Do you know any references or docs that says "Oracle 9i RAC is certified on OCFS2" ? TIA - Karl Arao karlarao.wordpress.com karlarao.tiddlyspot.com -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
