comment out the MONITOR_PACKAGE_NAME line and the
MONITOR_INTERVAL line. For mutual recovery, create the monitor
package on both the first and second clusters.

5. Repeat steps 2 through 4 for the alternate cluster.
NOTE The monitor package is sensitive to system time and date. If you change

the monitor is running, notifications of alerts and alarms may be sent at
incorrect times.
