Thanks Giri for the info.

Qs 1 Has Veritas CFS been tried & tested on very High Hybrid Transaction Loads with Solaris 10/Oracle10g on RAC at production sites?

Qs 2 What Other Filesystems are advisable for a very High Hybrid Transaction Load Setup with Solaris 10/Oracle 10g with RAC?

Qs 3 Is QFS advisable?

Qs 4 Is RAW instead of Cluster FS the last resort?

ASM is still seemingly NEW & probably NOT so much tried & tested as yet with High Load Production sites.

Thanks indeed

We are also in the process of setting up 10g R2 RAC on Sun Solaris 10 with

EMC storage.

As per the information I gathered VxFS is general filesystem, it is not a

cluster FS. You need Veritas Database Edition which enables oracle to use

CFS. Veritas CFS is an extension of VxFS.

You can use Oracle ASM instead of Cluster FS for database files and raw

device for Oracle clusterware repository and votingdisk

Thanks
