Oracle FailSafe under Win2k works great. One the hardware is set up to handle it
implementing it is very easy. Out failover with 5 databases takes 1-3 minutes from
the time of the failure to being up baed on the amount of activity that need to be
cleaned up when the failover occurs.

Anyone have some help?

I haven't done this myself.

Jared,

i have an instance A [ 8.1.6 ] on win2k server. it is not configured for MTS.instance A is accessed thro a web .

if A goes down , i want the application to gracefully switchover to another instance B.
B is not existing now ? should B be a stand by DB or should it be in OPS or FailSafe ...?

all i want is a simple high availability solution . oracle has Replication,stand-by,OPS,FailSafe, transaprent application failover (TAF).... as HA solutions. i read that TAF works with Replication,stand-by and OPS config.

my DB is of size 20G. it is not a 24/7 DB . weekly 2 hrs downtime is acceptable.it is a OLTP system.

which one would best suit my requirement ? what are th pre-requisites for this ?
where can i get some good docs for HA solutions ?

Guide me plz.
