Message-Id: <10616.116652@fatcity.com> From: "Boivin, Patrice J" Date: Mon, 11 Sep 2000 14:44:50 -0300 Subject: Oracle Fail Safe and MS Cluster Server solutions Has anyone tried this? Oracle says: "Oracle Fail safe is software that makes it easy to deploy highly = available solutions on Microsoft Windows NT clusters. Oracle Fail Safe 2.1.3. = (and earlier releases) help you to configure highly available = single-instance (Oracle7 and Oracle8) databases. [...] Oracle says for now this setup is limited to a 2-node cluster. Again I am left with the question: With only one copy of datafiles in = one place, isn't that a point of vulnerability? Are RAID solutions = reliable enough to trust for systems that have to be up 24x7?
