Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: RAC
If you are using Linux, you can use NBD's (network block devices) that will
allow you to use a third PC as a storage device. You can download the
drivers at http://nbd.sourceforge.net/
There's a pretty good paper out there as well, at http://www.fi.muni.cz/~kripac/orac-nbd/ that will walk you through the installation and configuration of the NBDs.
The performance isn't great, but it works. If you need more information, let me know -- I did a paper on this at IOUG last year and would be happy to send it to you.
Regards,
Brian

Dear Guru's,
Firstly, apology if this question sounds silly.
I am intrested in setting up a RAC configuration at my home with a few desktop PC's. I would run either Win2K or Redhat Linux for the same. I am not sure whether I would be able to setup the RAC using a few desktop PC's. I look fwd to your advise in setting up the same.
I believe an external storage is required for setting up RAC. Can I configure a 3rd pc's hard disk as a external storage for RAC??.
Your views are very much appriciated.
Thanks and Regards
Sriram Kumar
