Abstract:
A method of creating a facility in a clustered server configuration, includes: creating a facility on a first cluster node; adding facility registry keys to a resource in the cluster group, the registry keys comprising a facility key, a full text key, open database connectivity format keys, and connectivity information keys; performing a fail-over operation of the cluster group from the first cluster node to the second cluster node; resetting a password for the open database connectivity for the added facility; and removing the added facility registry keys to prevent replication back to the first cluster node. An apparatus for providing a facility in a cluster server configuration, includes: a first cluster node; a second cluster node; a shared disk system coupled to the first cluster node and second cluster node; where a facility can be created on the first cluster node.
Abstract:
A method of providing high availability enhancement for servers using structured query language (SQL), includes: installing hardware for cluster configuration; installing an operating system, SQL application, and eRoom application in a first server; duplicating a disk image of the first server to a second server; performing an initial cluster configuration procedure for eventually permitting the first server and second server to function in a clustered configuration; performing an eRoom cluster configuration procedure to permit one of the first server and second server to run the eRoom application that is installed in a shared storage in the cluster configuration; and performing an SQL cluster configuration procedure to install the SQL application in the shared storage. An apparatus for providing high availability enhancement for servers using structured query language (SQL), includes: a cluster configuration including a first server, a second server, and a shared storage, where an eRoom application is configured to run on one of the first server and second server, with the eRoom application installed in a shared disk in the shared storage, and where the shared disk is configured to move to the other one of the first server and second server as part of the cluster configuration on fail-over.
