Hi,

You don't need to buy SunCluster to run 10g RAC or Veritas Cluster Software.
10g CRS can do the clustering in 10g. But the documentation says otherwise. That
is a bug in documentation.

BTW you don't need any third party volume managers if you decide to use ASM. Just expose a set of disk groups to oracle and oracle can manage your disks also.
This will remove your Veritas/any other volume manager layer and you can configure
anykind of RAID in Oracle ASM instance.
