For point 5 assuming that if two controllers looking at the same set of
databases I assume you do not need to do anything with regards copying to
controllers but would restore the dump and recovery log dump to each machine,
but when you shutdown your VDB you do need to stop it on both controllers
before continuing.
The configuration we are looking for is X databases to provide failover at that
level and also X controllers to provide controller failover. At least that was
the case last time I checked.

Hi Adam, You would need to something like the following: 1.) Shut down the VDB
that you are going to re-initialize. 2.) Load data into one of the backends for
that VDB. 3.) Load the VDB and force initialization to that backend. This
resets the recovery log. 4.) Backup the backend once initialized. 5.) Transfer
the recovery log and dump (if necessary) to other controllers in the cluster.
6.) Restore the dump on each backend. 7. ) Enable all backends. You can
actually enable the first backend used for initialization as soon as the dump
is completed. This is a lot of steps as you can guess. I would recommend
scripting it in Perl if you can. Cheers, RobertOn 7/2/08 8:56 AM, "Adam

It is MySQL. True, but I thought if you reint a db then sequoia gets unhappy
and then you have the admin nightmare of orting out the mess. Or is there a
nice automatic way of dealing with this? When I tried to reint my single db
test setup sequoia certainly got very unhappy and I had to reinit and all
sorts. Is there somewhere to look for what you describe or could you explain
the steps that would be followed to do the below. For example : shutdown
databases... etc etc etc. thanks

-0700Subject: Re: [Sequoia] stored procedure creation/DB reseedingHi Adam, Just
a question—wouldn’t it be easier to deploy directly to one database and then
re-init the cluster from that? You don’t mention your database type but
assuming it’s MySQL dump format this would be the easiest way. Sequoia does
not currently support that syntax fully. Cheers, RobertOn 7/2/08 8:01 AM,

The result of this may be a need to change how we deploy/redeploy databases but
I will ask anyway I have managed to get sequoia to work with our existing
mysql databases including it calls made to stored procedures which is great. I
have yet to try it on something other then my local box with more then one db
but that is a challenge for another day. Right now I am attempting to rework
our seed scripts to work through sequoia so when we redeploy and want to wipe
the database we can. I have taken out things like IF Exists calls (though it
would be nice if sequoia supported that) so I can recreate the tables fine.
However when I start on the stored procedures which change delimiter to $$ I
get the following error:
org.continuent.sequoia.common.exceptions.driver.DriverSQLException: Message of
cause: Failed to execute request CREATE PROCEDURE XXX(IN... because of
(org.continuent.sequoia.controller.requests.StoredProcedure cannot be cast to
org.continuent.sequoia.controller.requests.AbstractWriteRequest) Does this mean
that sequoia cannot be used to reseed, or is there something different I need
to do with the seed sql? I know I could just ignore the recreation of SPs and
views but my concern is that this is fine until one day we decide to change
one. I am looking for both short and long term solutions. So for example is
their an automated way I could get sequoia to rollback to the inital db state?
If I have changes to stored procedures is there a way without going through
sequoia to make the change that will not make sequoia unstable? Thoughts?
Options?
