Subject: RE:[spectrum] Hardware for SPECTRUM 10.2+ on RHEL 7

HI Christian,
I don’t know about hardware being an issue,  but we have had a similar problem 
with 10.1.1 getting a segmentation violation and DB crashing.  And to make 
matters worse when this occurs the Fault-Tolerant server does not pick up on 
this and it never fails over, leaving our Spectrum down until someone catches 
it manually and has to reload the db and restart the primary. I have an open 
case on this now.

Subject: [spectrum] Hardware for SPECTRUM 10.2+ on RHEL 7

Hi all,

I am challenged to migrate SPECTRUM 10.1.1 running on an Oracle T4-1 in a 
Solaris 10 LDOM to a VMware VM with RHEL 7 on an Intel platform. I am sure 
there will be no problems with the OS or the virtualization whatsoever. 
Nevertheless, I am being a little cautious in terms of hardware issues – while 
my current Solaris box was never a problem for CA and, with SPECTRUM 9.x, even 
preferred over a T2 or T3 driven machine (see 
https://support.ca.com/us/knowledge-base-articles.TEC593037.html<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__support.ca.com_us_knowledge-2Dbase-2Darticles.TEC593037.html&d=DwMFAw&c=7cLS9WNAtBnCcDqDMiGRcw&r=ngEvqUr3ftm-yBECt1XhRqx_0K_2Gr9tfzOpppmuUtA&m=_nCHd5bLAgMsYRMeczjIU2CgpI_XNRwTEJKJgKQ-Oj8&s=3f9zPApKR2m-EOebTgWEnmmIKWKa9l7ALibIUMoxGhY&e=>),
 it seems that there are memory allocation problems (which, frankly, do not 
affect any of my other LDOMs, only the primary SpectroSERVER) that lead to CA 
refusing full support for performance problems we are facing with SPECTRUM 
10.1.1. In particular, we have to restart our environment from time to time 
with weird side effects like corrupted SSDb (Stopping SS doesn’t work due to 
missing memory), thus the need to restore a backup which of course lacks the 
buffered events that were about to be written to DDMDb as soon as the stalled 
ArchMgr would work again… etc. pp.

We intend to buy Cisco UCM machines as a base for ESXi 6 – more precisely, UCM 
C240-M4 boxes (see 
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/servers-unified-computing/ucs-c240-m4-rack-server/index.html<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.cisco.com_c_en_us_products_servers-2Dunified-2Dcomputing_ucs-2Dc240-2Dm4-2Drack-2Dserver_index.html&d=DwMFAw&c=7cLS9WNAtBnCcDqDMiGRcw&r=ngEvqUr3ftm-yBECt1XhRqx_0K_2Gr9tfzOpppmuUtA&m=_nCHd5bLAgMsYRMeczjIU2CgpI_XNRwTEJKJgKQ-Oj8&s=OlGyxzDAwjaWlbY495lwjWS89mFHjghGCfpsVLTnLzE&e=>).
 We already use those for our CUCM environment. I assume we are less likely to 
be faced with an issue in the Intel world compared to Sparc, nevertheless I 
appreciate any input from the community in regards to possible problems 
somebody might have already faced with this particular hardware platform.
