John, I have never used TAF(Transparent Application
Failover) with MS Cluster(Only with OPS on NT) so I am
not sure if TAF will work or not. TAF is built into
Oracle's ODBC driver but not microsoft's. I only use
the EE edition but TAF is part of NET8 and Oracle8 OCI
developed application's. NET8 and ODBC is part of the
EE and standard editions of Oracle. Oracle's ODBC
driver is written with Oracle8 OCI and Microsoft's
ODBC driver is not. You will also have to setup
TNSNAMES for TAF to work with your application. Now my
big disclaimer is that I only setup the ODBC driver, I
never tested it because I don't have any apps that use
ODBC.
