Where install VIOM: on Windows? or on Linux?
Hi every one: I want to install VIOM, I never do it before, and my first question is: Where I should do it? In Windows envioroment? or in Linux Envioroment? All my clusters are in Linux Envioroment: Infoscale 8.0 on Red Hat 8.9. Other question: Is it posible install Cordination Point Service in the same server? All my clusters have 2 nodos: node one in one CPD (site 1) and the node two in other CPD (site 2). I think that the new server (VIOM+CP) shultd be another CPD (site 3). Correct? Thanks Jaime.364Views0likes1CommentVCS discovery windows
Hello Experts, As part of a monitoring solution, we have been relying upon the presence of below registry keys to detect presence of a VCS on Windows, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VERITAS\VC HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VERITAS\VCS\Base This however seems to be unreliable leading to false positives. I want an approach(could be a registry key/value) to detect a VCS with certinity on a Windows. Thank you! Ashish1KViews0likes1CommentSSIS in SQL cluster
Hello all, what is the recommended configuration for SSIS in a SQL cluster? If we develop the packages on a different non-clustered instance with BIDS, do I even need to install SSIS within the cluster environment? This is on a 6.0.1 cluster environment with SFWHA.682Views1like0CommentsNo Valid Disk Found Error

Ok, I'm somewhat confused and the more I read the more confused I think I'm getting. I'm going to be setting up a 4 node active/active cluster for SQL. All of the nodes will have 2 seperate fiber channel HBAs connecting through 2 seperate switches to our NetApp. The NetApp supports ALUA, so the storage guy wants to use it. It is my understanding that I need to use SCSI-3 to get this to work. Sounds good to me so far. My question is, do I need to use any of Microsoft's MPIO or MSDSM? This is on Win 2008 R2. Or does Veritas take care of all of that? Also, I read that in a new cluster set up, only connect 1 path first and then install and then connect the 2nd path and let Veritas detect it and configure it. Is that accurate? Any info or directions you can point me will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!SolvedSQL memory management in active/active configuration
Hi, I willhave 4 nodes in an active/active/active/active configuration. Each node will have 3 SQL instances installed on it. Each node has 256GB RAM. I know I can set the limit each instance can use, but the more memory SQL gets, the better it runs. Ideally, I would set each instance to use 80GB or so. Roughly 1/3 of the node's memory, leaving some for the OS and Veritas. What happens if one of the nodes goes down? Where would the newly failed over instance get it's memory from? Is there a way to manage this? Should I let SQL manage it? I don't want a run-away query on one instance to hog all the node's memory though and affect the other instances on that node. What are my options?Solved1.6KViews0likes2CommentsWhat are the consequences of disabling a service group in VCS

Hi, I try to get a VSS snapshots for SQL, but I have a problem. This is my environment: I have distributed 10 database on 2 volumes and the logs in another one. E:\Database, with 5 database, size 100GB F:\Database, with 5 database, size 100GB J:\Logs_all_Database, with 10 logs for each database, size 50GB I have 3 volumes for the snapshots with the same size. If I take a snapshot for one database only this database quiesce, and get the snapshot with only one consistent database. My point is, can i get a snapshot for all the volume with only the name of the SQL instance, and get the quiesce of all databases on that volume? or I need to separate databases in individual volumes?Solved1.1KViews0likes3CommentsConfigure SFRAC on Windows
Hi, I am trying to configure SFRAC on Windows 2008 R2. I didn't find a solution of SFRAC for windows. Iknow that SFWHA is active/passive. But SFRAC is active/active, and it uses CVM rather than VxVm.I wonder if there is anyway can make the Oracle DB and shared disks active/active on Windows? Thanks a lot.Solved962Views0likes3Comments
