If two or more RAC instances will be trying to cache the same data blocks, then this causes the performance problems that you'll see show up as lots of time spent on the event called "global cache cr request". If you can partition your application so that RAC nodes don't have to share blocks very often through the cache fusion mechanism, then your system will scale a lot better.

Dear List,

Number of times I've seen that one of prerequsites for switching from single node DB to OPS/RAC is to have an application specifically designed / architectured to run on RAC.
Can somebody elaborate? Is it something "visible" on ERD? That is by looking at the model can RAC guru tell that it wouldn't work well on RAC?
Or put it another way can one conclude based on the ERD that app was modeled to run on RAC?

What's the recepie for app design for RAC?

TIA
