Hi Edna,
Unfortunately Oracle uses the phrase "capped container" in their public
documentation regarding what they allow and what they don't allow, but never
defines the phrase. In other communications, it is clear that the phrase *at
least* means "a single zone and processor set in a resoufce pool." It is not
clear what else is allowed, such as your example.
Since Sun doesn't use that phrase, only Oracle would be able to answer the
question.

An interesting mail, so to be clear
we have the two Oracle instance in the global zone and two CPU's
with two further CPU's in the 'spare' container.
Then SC 3.1 to make the two instances work together?
I am unclear as to the benefit here?
While not overly familar with Oracle licencing, i didn't think this
applied as a physical cap?

Hello,
IHAC who will implement SOA architecture in the bank and requires spare
cpu in the server due to address unexpected system load. Due to decrease
Oracle licensing we (with Oracle against IBM competition) offered to use
containers and keep spare cpus in the spare container. The active
container will include 2 oracle instances and the customer requires
manage the system resources between the 2 instances in the active
container with Solaris Resource Manager. .
We will cluster 2 nodes with SC3.1 and database will be Oracle 10g. The
customer doesn't want to use RAC.
You can find the drawing of the container logic in the attachment.
- We assume that if any performance problem occurs, customers can
dynamically transfer the spare cpu's into the active container.
- As far as I can see it is supported to have Solaris Containers Oracle
10g and SunCluster 3.1, if we put the application in the global
container. So we assume failover between global containers is supported.
Since the customer requires written commitment, your comments about our
assumptions and the scenario explained above would be appreciated.
Best Regards,
Nazan.
