Hi All, I will shortly be installing and configuring Veritas Cluster Server 6.0 on Solaris 10 U10 for Oracle E-Business Suite on 2 Sun SPARC T4-2 servers. Please suggest: 1. Should I use ZFS for root filesystem or UFS or VxFS? 2. Should I mirror using hardware or software RAID? 3. I will have to use either Oracle VM Server for SPARC or containers? Which is preferred? 4. I hope there no problems in using Veritas Cluster File System (CFS) for Oracle Database files. If I configure the application in non-global zones, I want them available inside the virtualized environment. The SAN storage will be provided by NetAPP. I also hope I will not face problems in configuring I/O fencing. Again, should I use Veritas DMP or Sun MPXIO? 5. The entire storage volumes will be replicated to the DR site using NetAPP storage based replication. Best Regards, Bruce
