Anyone using VCS (Veritas Cluster Service) to manage Active-Standby

My requirement is to maintain an active-standby pair on primary site and two read-only subscribers at DR site.
We use VCS on our servers to manager all applications.
Our application requires immediate fail-over from active to standby in the event of a failure on active database.
I was told CRS is integrated with T10 and can take care of the automated fail-over.
Unfortunaltely, we have to keep VCS on these servers and wondering if any one has experiance on using VCS to manage the fail-over. Any scripts to share?

Ask timesten 11.2 Using Oracle Clusterware to Manage Active Standby Pair

Using Oracle Clusterware to Manage Active Standby Pairs
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13085_01/doc/timesten.1121/e13072/cluster.htm#CCHCFAAD
What is that mean ?
I have to use Share Storage for... Oracle Clusterware?
I think right?... or wrong ?
Can I have VIP on Master node, and then master down... standby will active with VIP, right ?

A TimesTen A/S pair is a replicated configuation where a pair of TimesTen datastores, usually located on different machines, act in many ways as a single unit. The active master can process both queries and DML (insert/update/delete) while the standby master can only process queries (think of this as a little like Active Dataguard). Applications that run on the same machine as one of the TT datastores can connect to it via the very high performance 'direct mode' while applications running on other machines can access the datastores in client/server mode. There is a clearly defined procedure for failing over if the active master fails (which involves promoting the standby master to active) and for recovering a failed store back to the correct role. Direct mode applications must failover with the datastore whereas for client/server applications the connection(s) need to be failed over. The basic A/S pair replication mechanism has been available since TimesTen 6.0. The replication configuration is defined via special SQL syntax and monitoring and management (failover control etc.) is performed by way of built-in procedure calls. However, in TT 6.0 and 7.0 the actual monitoring and management of the A/S pair, including failover, is left for the user to implement themselvses or via some custom integration with an external cluster manager.
TimesTen 11g adds two major new capabilities:
1. Automatic client connection failover for client/server connections. Think of this as very similar to Oracle DB TAF and FAN. This does not require VIPs or Clusterware since it is implemented completely within TimesTen. However it works very well when used in onjunction with Clusterware.
2. A deep integration between TimesTen and Oracle Clusterware. All aspects of Timesten A/S pair definition, deployment, management and recovery are handled by Clusterware. There is just a single configuration file and a single TimesTen utility (ttCWAdmin) involved. Of course you need a properly configured Clusterware setup first which will require some form of shared storage (for OCR and voting disks) but TT storage (checkpoint and log files) does not need to be on shared storage. Setting up TT for use with Clusterware is very quick and easy (maybe 30 minutes the first time you do it and much quicker thereafter once you know what you are doing). From then on Clusterware will manage all aspects of failover and recovery completely automatically. VIPs are not required but can be used if desired e.g. for application failover purposes. Clusterware can also manage the failover of direct mode applications. Also, you can define automated backup cycles and spare nodes that can be used if a node suffers some permanent failure. The Clusterware integration offers very rich functionality but also very fast failover (typically just a few seconds in my testing).
Hope that helps clarify.

Has anyone used Timpsons phone repair service for a replacement screen on iPhone 4S?

My iPhone 4S has a. cracked screen, but still works OK.
Can anyone comment on Timpsons repair service? It will cost £40 for the repair, but they do use real glass, not just a plastic screen.

If your phones is in waranty then thats a bad move. Other wise I cannot comment on non Apple repairs, and dont feel this forum is the best place for that. iPhones use specially toughened glass with a Oleophobic coating, I would not trust 'glass' to be that. Also if you break your phones dies and you need a out of warranty replacement you wont get one buy going down this path.

Has anyone used a 3rd party service called MQUBE?

My last Verizon Wireless bill shows a charge of $9.99 for a 3rd pary vendor called MQUBE. I did not purchase this service and the charge has been removed. But there are lots of complaints about the company - see http://classactionconnect.com/cell_phone_issues/2007/08/30/m-qube-complaints/
Have you used this service or had problems with it? If it is as unprincipled as that website suggests, Verizon Wireless should be made aware of it!

AL_Peggy,
Phew! Glad that charge has been removed for you. And thanks for being proactive to make us aware of the situation. As you can imagine, we only want to set up our customer for success going forward. That being said, please know you can always add a free block of premium messaging services via http://bit.ly/xB4iTc

Veritas Cluster (SFRAC) and oracle CRS

We have oracle 9i RAC running on Solaris 9 with over veritas cluster.
We want to run 10g RAC on the same same servers which will use the
veritas cluster file system
While trying to install 10g CRS the node selection list doesnt show node
information.Entered information using response file .After the installation
root.sh fails to start CRS.
Is it ok to run 9i and 10g RAC on same servers.

Chandra/Vishwa
We have a libskgxn2.so in /opt/ORCLcluster/lib directory. But the size of the file is
different from /opt/VRTSvcs/rac/lib/libskgxn2_64.so.1 file
Since we already have 9i rac running, I am not sure if copying the file from
/opt/VRTSvcs/rac/lib directory if it will affect 9i rac.
I went ahead with installation of CRS. I am getting following error while running root.sh
Checking to see if Oracle CRS stack is already configured
Checking to see if any 9i GSD is up
/oracle/crshome/AUTEST/bin/lsdb: Failed to initialize Cluster Context
skgxn error number 1311719766
operation skgxnqtsz
location SKGXN not av
errno 0: Error 0

[-hn hostA,hostAnum,hostB,hostBnum...]
With CRS and veritas running on the same server , will CRS always communicate
across nodes using VCS since we will be using veritas cluster file system
for database.

Hi John,
Good Morning.
I have a question on what are the benifits of smart value help in CRM 7.0. We have upgraded our system and didnt achieve the true functionality of smart value help.
Ex - We entered country as 'US' in Country field and entered C* in Region field. I could see all regions starting with C* in the smart value help. It is not filtering based on the country selected. It should show me only regions which are in US and starts with C.
Is this a limitation. F4 helps works perfectly. I think we are missing some notes here.
Appreciate your feedback.
Regards,
Ch Deepthi.

Anyone Using OFSAA - Profitability Analytics V 5.1

Anyone using the Oracle Financial Services Analytics Application with the Profitability Analytics on top of it?
http://www.oracle.com/us/industries/financial-services/045794.pdf#search="ofsa"
I am interested specially those implementing Version 5.1 of the Profitability Analytics?
Does the product use only Essbase as the data source for OBIEE ?
I understand in V 4.5, the data source for OBIEE was purely relational (star schema).

Try going to the hidden menu (from on hit power off, ok menu. Timing is critical. Under hdmi settings change from auto (the default) to pass through.
Note also may or may not be able to pass signal on from tv to any receiver, depending on your TV.

Anyone using their activated iphone wo sim?

Anyone using their iphone wo service? Any problems or concerns?

My problem is I have a blackberry curve on tmobile which I have to carry and is my phone. Also it works much better as a messaging device. I do like the slickeness of my iphone but will not use it for phone or sms. I am considering canceling the service within the 30 day period to avoind the contract. If they come out with an ipod that does all of this I will sell it on ebay and get the ipod but for now I am enjoying the iphone. If I realy need the EDGE data back I can always go withthe go phone plan.

813 new library services / content manager: anyone using in production

Greetings,
I'm looking for feed back on the new library services / content manager in 813.
We're currently using InterWoven for CMS to WLP7. We're migrating WLP7 to WLP813 and are pondering whether the CMS built into WLP813 is solid, usable and production ready?
If so we'd drop use and support costs for Interwoven.
What would be lost that I can imediately see is easy promotion of content between dev, qa, prod. We'd have to use DB replication scripts. Could use helps here too.
BTW, I found a nifty DB/table migration tool: opendbcopy.org
Thanks for any thoughts, curt

Do you have a particular reason for purchasing this specific device?
i.e I use a QNAP TS410 nas which does all that you want on mac flawlessly, so at the minimum add this to your potential list.

Deploying pinned service to Managed Server in a cluster

Hi:
          WLS8.1 SP4
          I have a cluster of 4 managed servers.
          I deploy a pinned service (in an EAR) to one of the cluster members.
          Usign weblogic.Deployer:
          weblogic.Deployer -adminUrl .. -name ExampleMDB -nostage -source c:\...\ExampleMDB.ear -deploy
          The EAR seems to be targetted at all other 3 servers, and fails in prep for those other servers.
          I also get this error if i use STAGE.
          I suspect that it has something to do with deploying a pinned EAR to a clustered server.
          If I frig config.xml (bypass Deployer or console), and restart the servers, it is deployed fine.
          Any comments apprec.
          g.

Hi Rob,
          Yes, I targetted the EAR at the 1 managed server:
          -targets WLS05
          weblogic.Deployer -name ExampleMDB -nostage -source ... -targets WLS05 -deploy
          When i last tried this, the console reported success. However, when I checked config.xml, EXAMPLEMDB.ear was targetted at WLS05 and WLS08. When I saw this discrepancy, I raised a case with support.
          I noticed in the release notes for SP4 that there were some resolved issues with cluster deployment when given less info than I have given. I'll update this thread with the support results.
          g.

Manage OES11 Cluster Services

Hello to all!
I've just a "big" problem. I have to manage 3 OES-Cluster Nodes. 2 2-Node-Clusters on OES 2 SP3 and 1 4-Node-Cluster on OES 11. The master - where the iManager is installed - is an OES 2 SP3, too.
When I start the iManager, it's no problem to manage everything on the OES 2-Clusters. If I choose the OES 11-Cluster, I'll get errors and the iManager stops working (the frontend).
I've searched the internet for information; so I can say, it's not the TID with the sysctl-settings.
Does anyone have any idea?

Use iManager on one of the OES11 servers to manage the OES11 cluster? (I'm just saying to try that).
I don't know off the top of my head if the OES11 iMan/cluster stuff can manage both cluster versions. I believe OES11 does not use cimom to manage clustering anymore (sfbcd or something like that now?)

HT1296 Does anyone uses optonline as their email service provider?

If anyone uses optonline as their email service provider, do you have a problem with your MacBook Pro synching emails with the Optimum server? For example, when I delete an email from my inbox on my MAC Book, it does not delete the email in the inbox on the server. I just bought an iPhone: when everything synch's through iCloud, all the messages from the Optimum server are on my iPhone versus the messages from the inbox on my MacBook. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks very much

SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services Report Manager using non-HTTPS URLs on part of site

For potential ease of understanding, I am seeing the same issue as this person
here.
Currently, my site is successfully using HTTPS in all areas of the /Reports site, with a single exception. If you drill down to a report and go to "Manage", the following links are all http://, not https://:
Parameters
Data Sources
Subscriptions
Processing Options
Cache Refresh Options
Report History
Snapshot Options
Security
These remain regardless of the configuration combinations I enter in Reporting Services Configuration Manager. I'm not sure what makes this part of Report Manager special. Even if I only enable https in the Report Manager URL settings, these links all stay
as http (port 80). I can find no references in config files to this.
Any assistance is welcome. Obviously having non-encrypted links is not acceptable.

Hi SteveKSM,
According to your description, you specify the report manager URL as https://. When you open the child items on report manager, the URL change to the http://.
In your scenario, since you want to set SSRS to require all SSL connections, you need to change the SecureConnectionLevel value to 3 in RSReportServer.config file (located in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS11.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\ReportServer).
It means that all communication must use secure connections. So please specify this attribute like below:
<Add Key="SecureConnectionLevel" Value="3"/>

If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Has anyone used Migration Assistant to move services from one system running Server to a new system?

So, I've purchased a Mac mini to replace my aging Mid 2009 mini on which I've been running Mavericks Server. In trying to answer the question of how best to move services from the old machine to the new, I've stumbled into the fact that Migration Assistant can apparently migrate not just user data for workstations and laptops, but also service data for servers. The problem is there isn't much detail in the docs about how good a job it does when going from one machine to another without changing OS releases. There's a very detailed document in the KB about going from older versions of Server to new (OS X Server: Upgrade and migration from Lion Server or Snow Leopard Server) and a general doc on migrating from another Mac under Mavericks (OS X: How to migrate data from another Mac using Mavericks) but that has no details about Server.
Has anyone used Migration Assistant to move services from one system running Server to a new system? Are there any details that are particularly important to get right? Are there things that require manual steps after Migration Assistant is done?
There are other ways I could tackle the problem, of course. I could simply swap drives between the systems, but the new system has two drives that are bigger, faster, and I intend to mirror them. That would complicate such an approach. I'd really like to keep the conversation constrained to a discussion of Migration Assistant as the primary method.

yes. I migrated a server frm lion to mavericks following these notes a while back:
OS X Server: Upgrade and migration from Mountain Lion
i do not recall having any problems with it.
