Re: Oracle Fail Safe/Win2k Cluster issues - Mysterious Failovers

This appears to have been the result of a known bug with Win2K's
Memory Manager allocating the paged pool before it is needed (see
Microsoft article Q280790).  According to the Microsoft technician
with whom I spoke, this bug could cause a Win2K cluster to
unexpectedly reset itself, thus preventing Oracle (or any other
process for that matter) from accessing the drives for a brief period
of time.  The issue was resolved in SP2.



I hope this helps anybody else who encounters this problem.



Regards,


Greg
