	Like Mr. Sharman has mentioned, you have to define the

purpose/what is your primary objective. balance, availbaility, disaster recovery.. yada...yada..          

        BTW, you can find some presentations/material on extended clusters on the RAC SIG website at www.oracleracsig.org

                I guess I remain to be convinced there's a need for this sort of thing. But then I'm a purist at heart and don't like seein g people using one technology to do two different things that it wasn't really designed for in the first place. :)
