Hi Richard; You are right ZFS is not a shared FS so it can not be used for RAC unless you have 7000 series disk system. In Exadata ASM is used for storage Management where F20 can perform as a cache.

But there was little else of a technical nature said, though John did have one to show. RAC doesn't work with ZFS directly, so the details of the configuration should prove interesting. -- richard _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
