I have a 2 node cluster running various Oracle schemas. With a recent upgrade, we have determined we can no longer run three of our environments on the backup server.
Example, primary server runs production, secondary runs test and dev. In a failover situation, production should failover to the secondary. However, the secondary does not have sufficient resources to allow it to start. The solution is to shut down test prior to failing over. This must happen before Oracle tries to start on the secondary server. The scripts used to start Oracle are the same across the environments and the only difference is the SID. We also use data storage resources and it has the the ability to set the RunBeforeStartMethod parameter and since it is one of the first items to fail over, I thought I found my solution but unfortunately it did not run the script I wrote to shutdown test - the script consisted of scswitch commands. Does anyone know of a way to stop a resource on the secondary server prior to a resource failing over to it? Thanks for any assistance. Norm -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
