Hi all,
I am trying to get my feet wet with Amazon's EC2 and so far have to say I like it. Got a rightscale centos 5.2 up and running, allocated 20G of storage and installed 11.2.
The problem is that the rightscale AMI only claims to be centos 5.2, it's actually a fedora core 8 kernel mixed with other centos 5.2 components. I didn't get amslib or raw devices to work in a reasonable amount of time and became frustrated with the number of kernels and libraries/modules/header files.
So-does anyone know of a suitable AMI I could use for Oracle? The only requirement is that I can base my own AMI on it and it should be centos 5.x/OEL 5.x (non redhat, they are more expensive) It seems to be a lot easier to create a custom AMI based on an existing AMIs. Oh, and I don't want to use the Oracle AMIs, they don't come with 11.2 yet.
PS: Sorry for the acronyms!
Cheers,
Martin
