understood, if HRA.nyc.gov are set for VCS then go for it
it is good product.
for failover you donot need c-vxvm and CFS anyway
per docs in my early email  vcs support ldom and zone

You could argue a failure of leadership in upper management but OTOH they are 
paid whether its up or not so we don't want downtime.  Cluster also gives 
forced conformity.  Yes you can go around updating systems and OpsCenter 11g is 
great and you could use Live Upgrade but that is another leadership failure 
partly offset by the point that the development aren't all on same revision of 
OS etc and so are afraid that since noone else was the guinea pig it will break 
their database (even Oracle dbms because they might even be as recent as 10g 
but still have 9i running).

Real life in an institution suffering a long period of this sort of thing is 
messy.

for development DB why need cluster at all?
just use SAN to snapshot lun and move between hosts, the key is use
Virtual IP (not phys-IP addess)
so one can move the application very easily between hosts (after you
move the storage)

Because RAC is for parallel database clusters and that is a separate

For 3 years now.

I have many disparate apps including Informix 7 and 11.5 and various
development databases.

RAC with no Oracle database to run in parallel is a rather expensive
toy.
sure but without rac, you doesnot have to worry about qfs or
c-vxvm/CFS  etc

why not just install oracle 11gr2 rac/asm without vcs or osc (without
qfs or vxfs)?

Anyone know anything about LDOM2 support and Veritas Storage
Foundation (vxfs.vxvm) , Veritas Cluster 5 both HA and CFS (parallel
cluster filesystem)?

For that matter any gotchas with QFS?
