sorry to say that. but it's simply too MONSTROUS an idea!!! (oracle over NFS) > why do some implementations still insist on nfs for > clusters? Baka hindi databases ang applications? even mail over NFS is quite iffy. you need maildir to get good consistency. the performance implications of oracle over NFS is prolly a 1/1000 speed. horrible! use OPS. or if you can live with MySQL it has a parallel-hot-update option. (mahal ang OPS mahal din ang oracle --- Oracle Parallel Server) the closest you can get to a "NFS-like" cluster with high-end DB's is to use a Fibre-Channel SAN running GFS. -- Orlando Andico <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mosaic Communications, Inc. _ Philippine Linux Users Group.
