RE: EMC & Oracle 10g

I had read an article about a company that purchased some hardware on EBay. That company called the original hardware vendor to purchase a maintenance plan. The original hardware vendor refused until they paid the full purchase price for that piece of hardware to the vendor. The hardware vendor's reasoning was that he did not have a license for the firmware/software on the hardware.

Apparently, that piece of hardware is now sitting in the corner collecting dust...

Be careful what you buy on ebay, that car/toaster/telephone/spoon might have some firmware/software installed on it...

A friend (and a co-author) of mine had terrible time trying to purchase from EMC just
plain raw disks for Automatic Storage Mgmt feature of Oracle10g. I suspect the disk array vendors are not ready, yet, to part with the disk mgmt
firmware/software that goes with their products...
