MSCS, Shared Disk, Home Directory

[rob808]

I have installed Oracle on Node1, and created not only the Database on the Shared Disk, but also pointed the Home Directory to the same Shared Disk.

Now that I am about to install Oracle on Node2, it dawned on me that having the Home Directory on the Shared Disk from Node1 may be a problem??

Can I point Node2's Home directory to the same location as Node1? Do I install Node2's Home directory to the local Disk on said Node? Do I need to move Node1's Home directory?

I just can't seem to find the answer to this specific scenario in any Documentation or Forums. As a side Note, I intend to use Fail Safe (to which may or may not be implied by what I just described).

Windows 2003 Enterprise SP1
Oracle 10.2.0.1.0 Standard Edition 1
Shared Disks are formated NTFS

Thanks in advance for any help!
