Can you comment on this a bit? There are numberous new features in 10g that make it a more appealing platform than 9i. While there are significant advantages for 64bit system, this has always been the case, thats nothing new. In which reguard to you suggested 10g only benifits on 64bit?

I happened to do some research on this very question today. There's a lot of smoke and mirrors to it yet.
To get any benefit out of 10g you need: - a 64 bit CPU (AMD Opteron or Intel Itanium) - 64 bit Linux (SuSE is the only one I know of yet) - 4GB RAM minimum
Refer to: http://otn.oracle.com/software/products/database/oracle10g/htdocs/win64_ readme.htm http://zdnet.com.com/2100-1103-997619.html http://www.intel.com/technology/64bitextensions/faq.htm http://www.intel.com/design/itanium2/
The NetApp doesn't care what the bits are, whether 32 or 64 bit.
What's your motivation for going 10g?

Does anyone have any experience installing Oracle 10g RAC on filers, both binaries and dbf files? I've searched NOW and found nothing specific on 10g which makes me wonder if RedHat/Oracle10g/NetApp is a certified configuration.
