All,

Has anyone tried Oracle RAC (9i or 10g) with ogfs?

I want to put together a low-cost solution for experimenting with Oracle
RAC?

Also, since Oracle has its own lock manager for internal DB locking
issues, is there any reason to think ogfs would have anything but good
performance?

ie. I think most of the ogfs performance issues revolve around
functionality the Oracle would not use.

Also, I know ocfs (Oracle Cluster File System) is available as GPL, but
I don't think it has a lock manager at all, so it can only hold the
database itself, not any of the associated programs and control files.

That does not sound very friendly to me.

Thanks
Greg
