We have two independent Sparc/Solaris systems sharing Sun's disk arrays. Both systems are on the same sub-net and have a separate high speed Ethernet connection between them. Is it possible to configure an active-active, HA, redundant, Oracle RAC on these systems without using Suncluster or other non-builtin clustering software? If no, what would be the minimum additional software/configuration required? If Oracle built-in software can be used, what component will be required at the very least?

I am trying to keep the number of components minimal, yet build a highly available, possibly fault tolerant, configuration. Would prefer to use raw partitions rather than LVM and such which increase complexity.

I know there will be insightful responses. I thank you in advance for your help. Received on Sun Oct 09 2005 - 13:30:11 CDT
