Oracle -Microsoft cluster service(OS CLUSTERING)

  • I need to install a MSCS (microsoft cluster) over 2003 standard server

    - two ms boxes A & B.

    The two boxes are already having the OS 2003 installed and oracle

    10.2.0.4 Bin installed(locally).

    Box A has database sitting on filer.

    Box B has just oracle binary locally installed as like A.

    My question is as follows:

    1. Now can i install the MSCS* over this setup? If yes steps required

    2. Can i failover the database itself when box A goes down?

    3. Can i have active-active database availability too?
