Re: Conversion to RAC/QFS

Up until yesterday, it was a conversion where we HAD to work on production database, get the downtime and do all the work. But today we can afford to do what you have suggested where couple of domains in the E6900 have become available and also the SAN space which made our lives much easier. Now we can simply build a new cluster, clone a physical standby and convert at the time when we are ready to put it in production. Thanks for all the inputs.

PS. Application is not certified with Oracle 10.2 RAC. I really we could have used it. But, that will be the way to go in next upgrade.
