Re: 10g on Linux

As a director of a consulting company, I highly recommend customers to move to 10g as fast as humanely possible. Preferably with RAC thrown in.

In fact Morten Egan and I were just called out today to a site, where they're not completely stupid all day long - in fact they're usually pretty damn good - and when we reached them (we drove as fast as we could in my new car, ie 42 km/h, which is about 8 miles per hour in your country) they were on re-install # 8. When we left a few hours later, the number had climbed to 13, and Morten Egan will be back there tomorrow to continue with install attempts 14 thru 42.

Oh, it's 10g (the new one), it's RAC, it's on a Windows cluster, and ASM is involved (and somebody I won't name in Oracle had told them that, yes, redo logs can be on ASM, too). Rock'n'roll.

I think this will be another fantastic financial year for Miracle.
