"hacing 4 instances in each server"  

You mean hosting 4 instances each on two servers? Partitioning each server into 4 virtual servers and then RAC'ing that? I vote illogical. It's supposed to be "High Availablity." How you going to do the interconnect? I'm pretty sure this is a "non-standard" configuration and if support is important to your customer you're not going to want to do this. I'm guessing Oracle would laugh at you if you called in for help on this.

	Hi all
	 
	I have a question about RAC.
	 
	I have implemented a few RAC on a couple of customers. I have

always worked with two nodes and a single database, i.e 2 servers and a common database in a shared storage.          

        I have a customer who wants to use 2 servers to implement 4 RACs, i.e hacing 4 instances in each server. Has anyone done this sort of implemntation? I am not sure if this is logical or ilogical :-)                    

        Thanks          

        Alex
