Failed to get the MSDTC Security configuration for VCS from registry
Hi, I created campus cluster with 2 servers (Operating system: Windows server 2012 R2. SQL server 2012. Symantec Storage Foundation 6.1.) Service group became online through time. In first time - Faulted. I clear fault on this server and try up service group. Service online. I made it offline then try up and got faulted. Then online, faulted and so on... Faulted SQL agent. In SQL server logs I didn't find any errors. In C:\Program Files\Veritas\cluster server\log\SQLserver_A.txt I got errors 2015/05/16 20:41:33 VCS NOTICE V-16-20093-75 SQLServer:SQLServer-SQL1:online:Failed to get the MSDTC Security configuration for VCS from registry.Error : [2, 2] 2015/05/16 20:47:50 VCS ERROR V-16-20093-11 SQLServer:SQLServer-SQL1:online:Failed to wait for the service 'MSSQL$SQL1' to start.

SmartIO blueprint and deployment guide for Solaris platform
SmartIO for Solaris was introduced in Storage Foundation HA 6.2. SmartIO enables data efficiency on your SSDs through I/O caching. Using SmartIO to improve efficiency, you can optimize the cost per Input/Output Operations Per Second (IOPS). SmartIO supports both read and write-back caching for the VxFS file systems that are mounted on VxVM volumes, in multiple caching modes and configurations. SmartIO also supports block-level read caching for applications running on VxVM volumes. The SmartIO Blueprint for Solaris give an overview of the benefits of using SmartIO technology, the underlying technology, and the essential configuration steps to configure it. In the SmartIO Deployment Guide for Solaris, multiple deployment scenarios of SmartIO and how to manage them are covered in detail. Let us know if you have any questions or feedback!
SFHA Solutions 6.2: New VCS configuration wizards introduced on AIX, Linux, and Solaris
The Symantec Cluster Server (VCS) Cluster Configuration Wizard and Symantec High Availability Configuration Wizard are introduced on all supported AIX, Linux and, Solaris distributions in this release. The two new wizards replace the Symantec High Availability Configuration Wizard. The earlier wizard provided a combined workflow for cluster configuration and application (high availability) configuration, and was supported only on Linux. You can launch the new wizards from the Symantec High Availability view. In a VMware virtual environment, you can launch the wizards from the Symantec High Availability view in the VMware vSphere Web Client. Symantec has recently launched an add-on for Veritas Operations Manager called Symantec HA Plug-in for vSphere Web Client. The add-on lets you integrate VCS and ApplicationHA tasks with VMware GUI, while eliminating the need to install the Symantec High Availability Console. For more information on the add-on, see the followingtechnical note. For steps to launch the VCS Cluster Configuration Wizard, see: Launching the VCS Cluster Configuration wizard (AIX,Linux,Solaris,) For steps to configure a cluster using the VCS Cluster Configuration wizard, see: Configuring a cluster by using the VCS Cluster configuration wizard (AIX,Linux,Solaris) For steps to launch the Symantec High Availability Configuration Wizard, see: Launching the Symantec High Availability Configuration wizard (AIX,Linux,Solaris) For steps to configure an application the wizard-based steps to configure the following applications for availability monitoring with VCS, see: Configuring application monitoring for generic applications (Linux,Solaris,AIX) Configuring the agent to monitor Oracle (Linux) Configuring the agent to monitor SAP (Linux) Configure the agent to monitor WebSphereMQ (Linux)Symantec ApplicationHA 6.2: Monitoring applications with Intelligent Monitoring Framework
Symantec ApplicationHA 6.2: Monitoring applications with Intelligent Monitoring Framework Introduced in this release, the Intelligent Monitoring Framework (IMF) feature improves ApplicationHA efficiency with: Faster detection of application faults Ability to monitor a large number of application components, with minimal effect on performance IMF is automatically enabled, if you use the Symantec High Availability Wizard to configure an application for monitoring. The feature was introduced in ApplicationHA 6.1 for Windows. In ApplicationHA 6.2, it is extended to AIX, Linux, and Solaris. For details, see the following topics: How intelligent monitoring works:AIX,Linux (KVM), Linux (VMware), andSolaris. Enabling debug logs for IMF:AIX,Linux (KVM),Linux (VMware), andSolaris. Gathering IMF information for support analysis:AIX,Linux (KVM),Linux (VMware), andSolaris. This release introduces IMF support for the folloing ApplicationHA agents: Apache HTTP Server DB2 Database (not applicable to Oracle VM Server for SPARC environment) Oracle Database Generic (custom) applications The following topics describe how to use the Symantec High Availability wizard to configure each supported application for IMF-enabled monitoring: Configuring application monitoring for Apache:AIX,Linux (KVM),Linux (VMware), andSolaris. Configuring application monitoring for DB2:AIX,Linux (KVM),and(Linux (VMware). Configuring application monitoring for Oracle:AIX,Linux (KVM),(Linux (VMware), andSolaris. Configuring application monitoring for generic applications:AIX,Linux (KVM),(Linux (VMware), andSolaris. You can use Symantec Cluster Server (VCS) commands to perform more advanced IMF actions. ApplicationHA and VCS documentation is available on the SORTwebsite.
SFHA Solutions 6.2 (AIX and Solaris): Share local storage across the network using Flexible Storage Sharing
Cluster File System (CFS) 6.2 brings the Flexible Storage Sharing (FSS) feature to Solaris and AIX environments, enabling you to share Direct Attached Storage (DAS) across nodes in the cluster to run in SAN-free or hybrid modes. FSS takes advantage of high speed interconnects to allow sharedaccessto local storage enablingyou to create logical volumes in both shared and shared-nothing storage configurations, to create a high-performance, highly available shared namespace. With FSS, enterprises can use software to provide data redundancy, high availability, and disaster recovery capabilities, without requiring physically shared storage. For more information about FSS, see: Flexible Storage Sharing use cases Limitations of Flexible Storage Sharing Optimizing storage with Flexible Storage Sharing Installing Storage Foundation Cluster File System High Availability (SFCFSHA) or Storage Foundation for Oracle RAC (SF Oracle RAC) automatically enables the FSS feature. No additional installation steps are required. The fencing coordination points can either be SCSI-3 PR capable shared storage or CP servers. For information on administering FSS, see: Administering Flexible Storage Sharing About Flexible Storage Sharing disk support About the volume layout for Flexible Storage Sharing disk groups Setting the host prefix Exporting a disk for Flexible Storage Sharing Setting the Flexible Storage Sharing attribute on a disk group Using the host disk class and allocating storage Administering mirrored volumes using vxassist Displaying exported disks and network shared disk group Installing Storage Foundation Cluster File System High Availability (SFCFSHA) or Storage Foundation for Oracle RAC (SF Oracle RAC) automatically enables the FSS feature. No additional installation steps are required. The fencing coordination points can either be SCSI-3 PR capable shared storage or CP servers.

The SmartIO feature on Linux was introduced in Storage Foundation and High Availability (SFHA) 6.1. Beginning in this release, SmartIO is also supported on AIX and Solaris.SmartIO enables data efficiency on your solid state drives (SSDs) through I/O caching. For information about administering SmartIO, see the Symantec Storage Foundation and High Availability Solutions SmartIO for Solid State Drives Solutions Guide. In an SFHA environment, applications can failover to another node. On AIX, Linux, and Solaris, beginning in this release,the SFCache agent allows you to enable caching for an application if there are caching devices.The SFCache agent also allows you to failover the application to a node that does not have caching devices. The SFCache agent monitors: Read caching for Veritas Volume Manager (VxVM) cache Read and writeback caching for Veritas File System (VxFS) cache For volume-level caching, the cache objects are disk groups and volumes. For file system level caching, the cache object is the mount point. You can: Modify the caching mode at runtime Set the default caching mode when you mount the VxFS file system Configure the MountOpt attribute of the Mount agent to specify the default caching mode using the smartiomode option For more information about the smartiomode option, see the mount_vxfs(1m) manual page. If the cache faults, the application still runs without any issues on the same system, but with degraded I/O performance.You can configure the SFCache agent’s CacheFaultPolicy attribute and choose to either ignore or initiate failover. If SmartIO is not enabled on a node, the SFCache resource acts as a dummy resource and is reported as ONLINE or OFFLINE depending on the group state, but caching-related operations are not performed. For more information, see: SFCache agent Mount agent Symantec Storage Foundation and High Availability documentation for other releases and platforms can be found on the SORT website.
