Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: Installing Oracle 10g release 2 RAC on an OESsp2 NSS Cluster?
NCS would only require the SBD - other than that we can use any file
system. The problem with OES as it stands today is the support for
OCFS2 - (iffy at best - and not official)
In OES2 the OCFS2 support is in the box (from SLES10) and you can cluster that without issue. - Can you hang on until the summer?
