Daniel,



Yes, it's like a mainframe, but with an important difference.



In Grid, blades are allocated, and then work must be transferred to
them.



No dynamic allocateion of CPU like in MVS/ESA.



Oracle says transportable tablespaces and distributed SQL are part of
their Grid technology, implying that Gris will transfer work to
standby Oracle servers.



Several good Oracle Grid whitepapers on OTN. . . .
