Data can be protected in a number of ways, including RAID... You can
have the data redundancy set using external and internal (mirroring
using Oracle or another means... Oracle uses stripes of 1MB across
whatever devices you present... e.g. Oracle can stripe across your RAID
creating the equivalent of a plaid).  I was more mentioning the
protection of data in reference to node failure (CRS)... There is an
entire process of checking Oracle uses to manage the latest, greatest
block during failure and synchronization of the global cache.  Your
concern was loss/corruption of data when there is a failure.  You can
check Metalink  document 144152.1 for details (9i RAC) on recovery, it
is nicely detailed and from what I've gathered from Oracle has not
changed too much between 9i and 10G.

Hi Oliver

Thanks for the reassurance.
By data protection you mean raid.

Hrishy
