Well getting the right NIC cards has always been a major show-stopper for me so I can see the value value in eliminating that issue.

Using ASM with RAW devices is recommended practice for Oracle so knowing that this is no different is a huge relief to me too.

But the big savings, of course, is not having to configure those nasty VIPs. That often takes one to two minutes per month.

And who needs failover anyway? Failover is for sissies! </SARCASM>
