The client has specifically said that they purposefully chosen not to
implement Oracle RAC (I'm not sure why). It's a large program and the
budget and technology platforms were already put in place before I was
involved. In other words, I'm not sure why, not sure there's a reason, but
RedHat HA Cluster Suite is what was chosen and it is what I have to make
work. :-\
