Solution
Attached is a document that provides details on Running Golden Gate with an
Oracle RAC

Option 1 - Installing GoldenGate on Shared Drives

The software is installed on shared drives that all the RAC nodes have access
to.

The manager and E/R processes can be started from one of the nodes.

If the node that the E/R processes were started from fails, the checkpoints
are maintained, so the
manager and E/R processes then can be started from another node without
making any
modifications to any parameter files.

If the database alone crashes on the node that GoldenGate was installed, then
the manager
process will need to be stopped on the node that started the manager and E/R
processes, before
it can be restarted on another node.

Option 2 - Connecting to the RAC instance from an application server using

SQL*Net

The software is installed on a separate machine. GoldenGate is setup to

connect to the RAC
Instance via the Global Database name which is setup in TNSNAME.ORA.
By connecting to the Global Database using SQL*Net, Oracle will handle the
fail over.

For extract, the oracle logs will need to be located on shared disk that this
server has access to.
