Installing an OracleAS Cold Failover Cluster (Infrastructure) Configuration

8-8

Oracle Application Server Installation Guide

Oracle Application Server Middle Tiers

You can install and run the middle tiers on other nodes (nodes that are not running
OracleAS Infrastructure). During installation, you set up the middle tiers to use
services from the OracleAS Infrastructure installed on the shared storage device.

You can also install and run the middle tiers on the cluster nodes without using an
OracleAS Cold Failover Cluster configuration for the middle tiers. In this case, you
install middle tiers using the regular installation process. If you do this, make sure the
middle tier ports will not conflict with the OracleAS Infrastructure ports when a
failover occurs.
