Metalink has a note on best practices on this. The best method of these in my opinion is to have n unqiue archive destinations (one per instance). Then you can NFS cross mount these destinations to the same location from each instance in your environment. RMAN can then backup/recover the entire database from a single server without having to worry about moving files around.
Note that if an instance fails, any of the surviving instances can and will archive logs on behalf of the failed instance to the local instances archive destination. Bill --- "Ramon E.
