I can answer only one of your question :) 2007/4/11, Schauss, Peter <peter.schauss_at_ngc.com>:
> - Are there any Oracle licensing issues?

From http://www.oracle.com/corporate/pricing/sig.pdf

Failover – In this type of recovery, nodes are configured in "cluster;" the first
installed node acts as a primary node. If the primary node fails, one of the nodes in the cluster acts as the primary node. In this type of environment, Oracle permits licensed Oracle Database customers to run the Database on an unlicensed spare computer for up to a total of ten separate days in any given calendar year. Any other use requires the environment to be fully licensed.

Yeahh we are in the very beggining of the process of doing the same on AIX and with 10g SE...

Probably someone can recommend an article/whitepaper/other valuable resource?
