If you are using the sequence to generate the primary key for a table, then the
sequence should only be used for that table. I can't think of a pro to have one
sequence shared for the primary keys on many different tables.

I think that was the intention of the COMMENT parameter. As you point

You can't easily find sequence use in a trigger either, as

Best to dump to a text file and use grep.

Guys,
It is not OFA compliant - all the files go in the same directory as the binary - there is no way to precreate the database and point the installer to an existing database initially. After the initial install - yes but not before.
Yuck.
And to add to that, I don't believe that FailSafe is even required to use

IIRC, it's just to simplify the cluster setup.
FailSafe certainly isn't need for setting up failover withi Veritas
