Bergman Precedence: bulk Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Perhaps a bit late but I have just been cleaning up the email As an alternate suggestion perhaps running Oracle under VMware with GSX Server. You can build a single instance of the training environment and then replicate the environment to build multiple instances, A nice feature is the ability to make each instance non persistent so that at the end of training you can simply undo all the work done in the training class GSX allows you to run as many instances as your hardware can support and if they are willing to buy big hardware then a GSX license is probably going to be cheap Cheers -- ================================================= Peter McLarty E-mail: Peter.Mclarty@mincom.com Technical Consultant WWW: http://www.mincom.com APAC Technical Services Phone: +61 (0)7 3303 3461 Brisbane, Australia Mobile: +61 (0)402 094 238 Facsimile: +61 (0)7 3303 3048 ================================================= "If people did not sometimes do silly things, nothing intelligent would ever get done." - Ludwig Wittgenstein ================================================= Mincom "The People, The Experience, The Vision" ================================================= This transmission is for the intended addressee only and is confidential information.

I have not heard installing hundred database instances on same server. Maybe you should think creating one instance, and then hundred schemas in it.
