Are you going to be using your Netapp as an NFS server or as a Fibre
Channel/iSCSI server? I saw you have FCP licensed, but I just wanted to
be clear about how you were going to use it. What model filers are you
getting?
The snapshots and flexclone technology is ever so much cooler with
NFS....

Subject: Oracle and NetApp
We are in the process of putting a new environment in, complete
with new servers, fabric switches, and an HA NetApp cluster. Oracle 10g
RAC will run in this environment on 2 physical nodes and we want to take
advantage of the NetApp filer's ability to clone databases and open them
up as new instances (including ASM instances). Does anyone have
something like this in their current environment? If so, is the clone
process overly complex? We are not licensed for their SnapManager for
Oracle tool but we do have FlexClone, SnapRestore, and the FCP protocol
licensed.
