I believe this is the definition of Oracle Failsafe. It sits on MSCS so is a windows only product.

Hi Mike,

Why would someone tell you that?

If that were true, then failover systems would not work.

Hi All,

Can someone please confirm for me the ability to unmount a set of disks on Server A, mount those same disks onto Server B (Same O/S, unique named disks), and bring up the database on server B. I know I have done this before, but I was just in a meeting where someone told me that you can't do this with Oracle, and that they tested it. This is with 9i by the way

Thanks
