Trying again, without quoting the original message...

Wow! You've got a lot going on. I suggest checking up on the following items...

+ The filesystemio_options instance parameter. A good place to start
is here, http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/misc/DirectAndAsynchronousIO.php

+ Native multi-pathing within Linux. You don't need to buy anything
(including an LVM).

+ The new ASM features in 11gR2. It's now POSIX compliant, supports
snapshots, etc.

+ Starting with Oracle 11gR1, there is a "duplicate target database
for standby from active database" command. Which makes creating a standby from ASM-ASM a non-issue.

Good Luck,
DD
