[Firewire-users] Oracle RAC on RHEL3 or WBEL3

[Stephen.Mattin at ftid.com]

I have not tried the latest kernels Manish posted,
but the linux1394.org site still lists Firewire 800
(IEEE1394b) compatibilty as 'ToDo'.

I have tried OxSemi 912 chips and managed to mount
drives, but they quickly report lots (GigaBytes) of
bus resets and various other errors.

Does RAC on Firewire work w/ Oxford 912 chipset?  I know oxford 911 
chipset
does.  Anyone tested their new one(s)?  I've read they have 912 and a 922.


Oxford Semiconductor's OXFW912 FireWire800 (IEEE1394b) to IDE (ATA7) 
bridge
chip is enabling LaCie's new Big Disk Dual FireWire drive to achieve data
transfer rates up to 88Mbyte/s.
