I am trying to understand the possible pieces going into providing 99.999% availability in an Oracle/Sun environment. Everything I have read so far mentions using Oracle Parallel Server (OPS) to provide quick failover if a server (node) or instance fails. In your opinions are there other options besides OPS to provide this functionality?

Thanks,
Nancy
