Well,
If you upgrade to(or already use) 11GR2 clusterware, you can use ACFS.
It works quite well for a similar problem on our system.
Best regards,
Bertrand Guillaumin

Objet : Re: File Processing Question
You could add a VIP to the rac cluster, attach it to one of the nodes, and have
the FTP client connect to that VIP. Then, when a node fails, the VIP will roll
over to the other node, and the next time the FTP client connects, it'll
connect to the surviing node.
Or are you concerned about the log files on the down node that haven't yet been
processed?

After the wisdom of crowds here.
Consider a system that processes files uploaded by ftp to the DB server.
Currently the upload directory is polled periodically for new files (since they
don't all arrive on a predictable schedule with predictable names). Any new
files are processed and then moved to an archive location so that they aren't
reprocessed. The polling and processing is done by java stored procedures.
This system is a RAC system with no shared filesystem storage. The jobs that
poll run on a particular instance via the 10g Job Class trick. The question
that I have is how would you implement resilience to node failure for this
system. It seems to me that we could do
* add shared storage - at a cost probably.
* ftp the files directly to the db - implies code changes probably
Does anyone else do anything similar and if so how?
