This is going to be a 2 node cluster. What is the normal installation procedure for RAC? Do you guys normally install the RAC binaries on a shared disk across the 2 node cluster or on individual disks on the 2 nodes? Is the latter option feasible or advisable. I can't see the benefits of installing the RAC binaries on local disk. Any advice would be welcome. TIA. --------------------------------- ALL-NEW Yahoo!
