Tom & chris
thanks for the reply.
I see a problem keeping the dump directories on the shared drives. For some reason the
drive is not available on either of the
nodes, some thing happened, then you can not even know what happened to Oracle, I
mean your alertlog will also be on the shared
drive and so it is not avalable.
I am just wondering, has any body faced a situation like this?
Does oracle has any recommendation of location of Bdump/cdump/udump?? I could not find it any where.
thanks
Deen

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
