We are using the clustered file System; and the initial testing has been good. What I have not yet tested is the "ownership" or "node mastering" of those file systems. Currently, the SFORAC version that will be supported on HP will be SFORAC 4.1.. We have been using DBE/AC 3.5 in the lab with HP. On Solaris, we are using SFORAC 4.0 on Solaris 2.8.. From an Oracle perspective, the setup has been the same.. greg -----Original Message----- From: Tim Gorman [mailto:tim@evdbt.com] Sent: Tuesday, March 01, 2005 12:01 PM To: 'oracle-L@freelists.org' Subject: Re: RAC on HP-UX According to MetaLink's certification matrix, Veritas DBE/AC v3.5 is certified for both 10g and 9i RAC on HP-UX PA-RISC, so you might look in that direction. On other platforms such as Solaris, this product includes a clustered file-system. No mention by MetaLink whether it does on HP-UX as well. I know that Veritas has changed the name of the product from "Database Edition/Advanced Cluster" (i.e. "DBE/AC") to "Storage Foundation for RAC" (i.e. "SFRAC"), and as of last October they were up to v4.0 with a couple patches besides, so there may be new information to be had...
