Oracle Fail Safe on Linux
661463Mar 3 2010 — edited Mar 21 2010Hello,
Oracle 10.2.0.4
Redhat 5.4
This database is today running on a single instance node, i would like to implement a fail safe function to this database.
First we discussed to create a Red Hat cluster using cluster suite, however we are not sure about the oracle data consistency when node 1 dies and node 2 should take up the work, this would require some high level manual work, it seems to us.
I suggested Oracle RAC, but i have doubts.
Can Oracle RAC adopt an fail safe function? We dont want load balancing, or shared cache and whatnot, i simply need that node 2 takes up the work if node 1 die, its okey if this take the time required for it to mount up and start.
Please advice me.
Thanks,
