RE: Oracle Dump location on Microsoft Cluster

Deen,

I am keeping all of the Oracle files (including dump directories) on shared disks. These disks then fail over when MCS/OFS fail to the other box. Makes in cleaner, in my view, that the *total* Oracle database fails over as one unit.

I have the Oracle software installed on local disks (drive c) on each machine. Of course, this means that I have two copies of the init.ora, Listener.ora, and Tns/Sqlnet.ora files, but since these change so infrequently (my NT system is dedicated to one Oracle application) this is not a big deal for me.

Hope this helps, fellow DOL person!

Hi,

I just wondering what is the best practice for Dump file, parameter file location on a Microsoft Cluster with OFS.

I saw some people keeping them on shared disks, some people keeping them on Local disks. Are there any Advantages and disadvantages with either of the approaches.

Thanks
deen
