Re: DR Exercise: Restoring a rac/hacmp oracle home to a non-rac non-clustered host.

Is there something in HACMP that is linked into the ORACLE_HOME somehow? I don't think there's anything preventing you from restoring your ORACLE_HOME from tape to a single node and then restoring your database as a single instance. Obviously you would need to get rid of the cluster_database parameter. Depending on your disk storage media, you may need something there as well (ASM requires CRS to be installed and running even for a single instance DB).
