Shared Disk Subsystem for Oracle 10g RAC

I am investigating the feasibility of clustering two 220Rs together in an Oracle 10g RAC configuration. Can I use a D1000 disk array for the shared storage between the two nodes? Can you briefly describe how to do it or point me to documentation on how to do it?

I'm going through the same exercise as well, but with an A1000. According to this Sun Cluster FAQ, the D1000 is OK - http://wwws.sun.com/software/cluster/faq.html#0q9

hi,

i have a D1000 storedge , connected via 1 X1651A host adapter on my sun machine with one scsi cable.

i only see six drives , what about the six other, how do i see them too? is it the option switch?or adding another scsi cable from the input/output 1 to input/output 2 ? do i have to terminate the other input ,or something else?

Thanks very much.

You need an HVD HBA. The product code you referred to isn't one of the 3 mentioned in system handbook: http://sunsolve.sun.com/handbook_pub/Systems/D1000/components.html#SCSI

hi dstmark,

can you kindly share some information with me? i am thinking of building up a small lab at home using A1000 to build up an Oracle RAC, as a1000 have 2 scsi port and have a build in controller.

but i am unsure about the detail software requirement, as google return some conflict information.

is SUN cluster would be enough? do i need to get something like Veritas Cluster? which may require a license key....

thanks for sharing information.
