My workplace is having a debate on what to use for a file system/disk
management perspective for RAC. I would like to know what others have
built their RAC clusters on, are more people using ASM or GPFS. I'm
not a DBA, but do support Unix and lean towards using ASM. I've read
several white papers and documents on the whole subject and ASM just
seems to have many benefits to the DBA. I really would like to get
other's opinions. GPFS is not really needed, but was suggested. This
cluster would be running on AIX 5.3/Oracle 10g2/Rac on EMC SAN. We
would start with 2 data base instances and then grow to maybe 10.
