Click here for Oracle Database documentation, 10g Release 1 (10.1).
Installation manuals and platform-specific books are not yet included in this search.

i am mainly looking for configuring ASM on windows 2003 server RAC .

I'm going out on a limb here, but I'd say it wasn't right for you if it doesn't include setting up ASM.

extremely sorry ..

it was my bad english ..
i meant any if any other book or document is there which covers configurung ASM instance .. that's it ..

I apologise ocne again for my wrong english , which i don't mean .

Did you actualy bothered to click on that link and check it yourself?

All instalation guides are there and they do work, including:
- Real Application Clusters Quick Installation Guide for Oracle Database Standard Edition for Windows
- Real Application Clusters Installation and Configuration for All Platforms

And I doubt you'll ever find any better book on how to install 10g RAC (with or without ASM). As far as ASM configuration is concerned - the whole thing is rather trivial. You'll find all the needed information in usual manuals (Concepts, Administration, ....).

OK we can cloe this thread .
i was just trying to find head start books , without going through manay manuals .

anyway i ordered above RAC book from net. will give feedback on that if any body is interested .

on easy manuals .

reason why i am looking for practical books is

for ex:

i have installed

1) 10g ( base release ) - found problem in export datab pump for resonably big database of 120Gb

2) applied patchset 10.1.0.3 -- this time above bug seems to fix expdp problem but got enterprise manager problem

3) executed another script empatch.sql -- fixed this problem
-- but got new problem exp bombed

4) so need to run some other script ..

for such a small stand alone installation i noticed so many probs .

i may be getting more errors while configuring ASM and setting up clusters ..

i think you all might have gone through above phases , while implementing 10.1.0.3.

that is the reason i was looking for some books other than oracle concept manuals for initial setup .

anyway those who are interested can answer this thread otherwise take it ease .

strange not able to open any installation docs . thou i could open all other links. know i understand may be our network is behind the firewall . that could be one reason , i am not able to see these docs . anyway i can try above links from home .
