Hi Upen,

As per my understanding ,you have already answered your query.

 I wonder what would have happened if I did not have frozen the SG on
 server1 would it continue showing PARTIAL and will not failover ?

Failover occurs if the service group faults or when system holding SG crashes.

Regards,
Munish

server to switch so no
 redundancy. I am not sure but server1 is connected to A and server2 is
 connected to B.
 but I have a doubt , as some suggested the service group will failover
to other server when I take oracle offline and some said SG won't
 failover
 I am still not sure what will happen

 what i did was take oracle resource only offline on server1 using
 -ignoreparent option (bcoz otherwise oracle would not go offline)
and found using hastatus that SG at top shows PARTIAL while oracle
 resource offline

 so thinking that application group would failover to other server2 I
 freeze the SG on sever1.

 I wonder what would have happened if I did not have frozen the SG on
 server1 would it continue showing PARTIAL and will not failover ?

Thanks
