Introduction The objective of this white paper is to describe VERITAS Cluster Server (VCS) support for Microsoft¡¦s shared VHDX feature in a Hyper-Virtual environment. To use the information given in this white paper you must have essential knowledge of administrating VERITAS cluster Server
Increasing Availability with SFHA in Multiple-IO domain configuration on Oracle VM for SPARC
The LDom technology provides a very cost-effective alternative architecture for deploying SFHA. The same physical server can be used for multiple applications within various logical domains with optimal resource utilization.Symantec Storage Foundation - Replicator Option - Aplicabilidades
Cada vez mais as empresas tem se preocupado em proteger seus dados em um outro ambiente fora do seu proprio Datacenter, seja com um backup remoto ou até mesmo um complexo ambiente de DR capaz de assumir o ambiente de produção em poucos minutos.
Storage Foundation Cluster File System HA on VMware VMDK Deployment Guide
Storage Foundation Cluster File System (CFS) provides several advantages over a traditional file system when running in a VMware guest OS. The primary benefit is that multiple virtual servers (up to 64) using CFS can simultaneously access data residing on the same physical LUN or virtual disk.Does Symantec Data Insight fully support Network Appliance filer configuration with NFS in an environment without LDAP or Windows AD?
In Symantec Data Insight (SDI) the configuration of the Network Appliance (NetApp) filer for discovery, scanning, auditing on NFS shares or shares in mixed mode of CIFS and NFS requires an authentication domain be configured under LDAP or AD. Error There is no error displayed but the Select Domain option box will only have the refresh button available. Environment NetApp ONTAPI CIFS&NFS mixed mode shares Local account Authentication SDI 4.0 or later Microsoft Windows Operating System Cause When configuring NFS SDI requires an authentication domain for configuration. Solution The SDI Administrator can configure SDI to run against NetApp NFS for monitoring without an actual LDAP domain, but they will have to configure one in SDI in order to enable the selection. These steps will allow you to create a pseudo Directory Services Domain in SDI and add NFS monitoring / auditing configuration. In the SDI console navigate to Settings (1) Click on directory services (2) Click Add new directory service (3) Select LDAP as your domain option (4) Create a pseudo LDAP server similar to below Do not test the connection. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click Save. Edit your existing NetApp filer configuration or add a new filer for which you deisre to Monitor NFS access events. Click Settings, filers Click name of existing filer Then add the NFS auditing by checking the box for monitoring during the NetApp filer configuration with the pseudo LDAP server. When events get registered, they will look something like this Note: demonstration is showing nobody due to not having configured using users, rather utilizing IP allow lists.
Configuring logical domains and SFHA in OVM for SPARC environment with multiple IO Domains
This white paper describes how to configure Oracle VM for SPARC logical domains with multiple I/O domains with Symantec Storage Foundation and High Availability (SFHA). The logical domains are managed by Symantec Cluster Server (VCS) installed in the I/O domains and the logical domains are part of a multi-node SFHA cluster formed between logical domains.Migração de Storage com Storage Foundation, SEM Dor
Cena comum no departamento de TI de praticamente qualquer empresa: Precisamos comprar um novo Storage! Seja porque o Storage atual está próximo a ficar sem garantia, ou não suporta mais a performance dos ambientes a que serve, ou mesmo a necessidade de mais espaço, em algum momento essa discussão vai aparecer.Avoiding Service Interruption with I/O Shipping Technology
One of the new features that has been introduced within Storage Foundation Cluster File System HA 6.0.1 is I/O Shipping. This new feature improves resiliency across Cluster File System nodes reducing downtime and improving resiliency. I/O Shipping is about being able to ship I/O from one cluster node to another when a problem in the I/O path occurs.
