Its been a while since i posted something on my blog, now that we went Live i would like to share some of my recent project experiences in next few blog articles. We wanted to use Oracle CRS to provide high availability for EBS Databases because VCS has some issue in managing ASM Instance. After some analysis i found this whitepaper on Implementing CRS to manage Oracle Single Instance Database, the same can be found here

We Implemented this solution, we also extended the solution to shutdown and startup middle tier services incase of a failover. I will post some Test Cases on what we performed to validate the Cluster.
