By definition, switch over includes some down time.

If you can not tolerate the switchover downtime, there must be some reason - turn that reason into $/minute and you have a business case to purchase Oracle RAC (if Oracle Database 10g Standard Edition, with it's included, free-of-charge, RAC is not good enough.)

Then base your hardware on the RAC config.

This is OK. cdo.server would be a bit better.
