They all agreed on using only one service to re-locate the disks and start
oracle on the second machine.
This can be done by adding start/stop commands to the start/stop action
scripts of the disk service.
In this case there will be no need for the oracle user defined service to do
this job.

This method worked very fine and oracle fails over correctly a long with the
disk service. Thanks a lot again.

Hello Managers,

        I recently installed two ES40 systems as an Available Server Cluster
members, sharing disks
        on an RA3000 storage works. Oracle Database was installed on the
shared disks, and it runs
        fine on any of the two systems. I defined two services on the
cluster. One for the disks, and the
        other is a user defined service to fail over the application. I
created simple action scripts to start
        and stop oracle when it fails over. The two services are named disk1
and ora_serv. When one
        system goes down, the services fail over to the second system
correctly, but when we check
        oracle processes on that system, it's not there. In other words,
oracle did not start up on that
        system. If I manually restart ora_serv from the asemgr utility,
oracle starts up fine. Only automatic
        fail over doesn't work.!
        Does anybody have a clue?! Your help is kindly appreciated.




Best Regards
