The default setting for Oracle Restart to check ASM is every second. That can lead to hundreds of thousands or millions of audit files in your Grid home under $GRID_HOME/rdbms/audit.
Fun fact: those files are so small, that they can leave plenty of space on the drive, but exhaust all of the inodes (index nodes or filesystem metadata) on the drive. And most monitoring systems only check for storage and / or blocks, not inode consumption.
Almost one year after announcing that Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) is de-supported on Oracle Standard Edition 2 starting with Oracle Database 19c, the other shoe finally dropped: Oracle announced a new Standard Edition 2 High Availability.

CAT for Oracle version 3.0 has been officially released, and it’s delivering a host of features that customers using previous versions have been requesting. The most eye-opening of which is support for Oracle Real Application Cluster (RAC) databases! That’s right, with CAT for Oracle, you can now clone both single-instance and cluster databases in an automated, repeatable manner. Want to do nightly refreshes of your 40 TB production database to test environments? Setup CAT for Oracle and get that refresh done in seconds using the power of Pure Storage snapshots!
