Cisco Access Registrar 5 : What design or requirements for active/ active deploiement

Hi Every one
I want to install Cisco Access Registrar 5  on two different servers in active/ active design
What design or requirements for active/ active deploiement ?
Using Sun Solaris ? (i know using sun Sloaris i can have this mode of high availability BUT I PREFER INSTALLING IT ON  RED HAT ENTERPRISE )
Using RED HAT ENTERPRISE on the two servers  ?   i wan to knew if i must use Vmware with the adequate licences (Vcenter) to provide FT fonctionnality for active / active Design ?
How i can use the replication   to provide a complet active / active Design ?

It depends what functionalities you want to use on CAR.
For example:
If only plain authentication is needed, you can install two servers independently and just configure replication between them (they just need IP visibility to replicate configuration). NAS clients can contact servers in  round-robin or you can share load on two servers in some other way.
If you want CAR to perform session management and dynamic IP address allocation, than you need some cluster solution, as two servers must have synchronized state of sessions and consistent administration of addresses allocated from a pool.

  • Cisco Access Registrar (CAR) UserList, dashboard status unavailable

    Hello, all,
    I need help. I am observing weird problem with Cisco Access Registrar cluster workin on MySQL cluster. I do not see any users or sessions in the GUI dashboard or in the CLI stats.
    Environment:
    Master/Slave replicated CAR cluster on RHEL 5 32-bit servers
    CAR version: 5.0.0.8
    RHEL version: Linux version 2.6.18-164.el5PAE ([email protected]) (gcc version 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-46)) #1 SMP Tue Aug 18 15:59:11 EDT 2009
    MySQL version: 7.1.15-1 ndb cluster
    ODBC sessions are working properly. Users from BRAS are being provisioned, at the moment I have about 20 users logged onto the network, authenticated and authorized. However, I do not see any users in the Dashboard's userlist, nor do I see any sessions although some surely exist. In the CLI, when I try to count sessions I see:
    --> count-sessions /radius all
    No active sessions found in /Radius/SessionManagers
    In the GUI, there are no sessions nor users shown, there is none listed. I have been checking logs and traces, but to no avail, I do not see any misconfiguration hint or other clue that would indicate problems with configuration.
    Please be so kind and look at my issue. I am aware that there was similar bug that has not been fixed yet, as listed here:

    In GUI, user session graph is not getting plotted with more sessions in database.
    Symptoms: In GUI, user session graph is not getting plotted with more sessions in database.
    Conditions:
    This occurs when you:
    1. Install Cisco AR server.
    2. Send a valid request.
    3. Create a million session.
    4. Launch GUI.
    Workaround: None.
    however, my problem seems a little bit 'expanded', since I cannot see either userlists through GUI or CLI (and I KNOW that there is tens of thousands of users in the MySQL database), nor I can see any users or sessions listed neither in GUI nor in CLI.
    I have been sniffing MySQL requests towards the sql (odbc) server, but I have not noticed anything relevant for querying for UserList, nor have I noticed any other queries except when authenticating users. Accounting logs are being collected properly, though.
    Thanks for all and any that spared time to read this, and if possible, help me solve my problem. If you need more details on my problem/environment, please ask.

  • What changes are required for OSS note 456507

    Hi All,
    PLease advise me what changes are required for OSS note 456507 (Assign the function groups QOWK or ORFC in the authorization object S_RFC to tRFC/qRFC users).
    I’m thinking of just going with the following additions to Role
    AAAB – Cross Application Auth Objects
    S_RFC
    Activity – 16
    Name of RFC - *
    Type of RFC - *
    But wanted to check what the implications of doing such a thing were, are there any negative points that you can think of opening up the access as above, as opposed to what was suggested in the OSS note?
    Your advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Regards,
    Sandhya.

    Hello Sandhya,
    S_RFC is needed in case of making any RFC calls.
    Normally it is needed  for users that are mentioned in RFC destinations.
    As such mostly these users are system/communication users or super users.
    Without giving access to function groups through S_RFC successful RFC call can´not be done.
    Now the value of field name of RFC can be * but only for those users which are really global super users. In case you need this authorization for any selective functionality as in you case only for function groups QOWK or ORFC then you should try to  restrict the access. Negatiity is only that in case of * the authorization access increases but for system or super users you dont need to worry too much really because with system/communication users no one can login and the super users will have sap_all generally. Also their passwords will be a well kept secret so that a miususe can not be made.
    By global super users I mean users which are used for various types of activites.
    Please award points accordingly.
    Regards.
    Ruchit.

  • Anybody know whats the system requirement for installing SAP in my home pc.

    anybody know whats the system requirement for installing SAP in my home pc. I have p4 processor with 1 GB Ram. I can increase the ram to 2 GB.  Please help

    Hi friend,
    Check your RAM , even for 4.7 version you need 1gb ram for better speed, 80gb sap only will occupy, for other storage you need to maintain another hard disk, or add new hard disk with your existing hard disk to make it 120 or 160, if its 6.0 then sap only occupies 6.0, then you need some more space for additional data, you cant browse internet on sap-server (which you installed), for internet and general purposed you need to seperate the hard disk, in case of 6.0 and you want to use both internet and sap you need to have 240-300GB HDD & 2GB ram, inter core2duo processor, 3.15ghz processor etc...and if its 4.7sap and other Operating system you need to have minum 160GB hard disk and 1gb RAM for better speed and access...
    clarify if any doubts are there, system performance improves with good RAM memory...
    reward if helps

    Hi Vinay,
    1. For DP_PROC_TY  you need to give the transaction type or R/3 document type you want to use for creating direct material POs. Could be ECDP given in the standard or copy of which you might  have created.
    2. For CT_PROC_TY it is either PCTR or GCTR depending what you want to create local contract or GOA.
    3. TEND_TYPE can have BID, RFCR etc depending on what type of bid invitaion you want to create form sourcing cockpit or as follow on bid invitaion.

  • What is setting required for Price Contol do the optional entery in master.

    Hi SAP EXPERT,
    What is setting required for Price Contol do the optional entery in Material master ?
    Regards
    Mahendra
    Edited by: MAHENDRA  NAVALE on Aug 27, 2011 2:23 PM

    HI
    In general in the material master record you can, hide display or optional for a field, but there are certain feilds should be mandatory for material creation,like base unit of measure,material description,and price contro,l valuation price,valuation class,without this you cannot create a purchase order.
    If you dont want to the price control means go for mateial type  non valuated material NLAG. because the price control is mainly linked with the material  valuation. based on the the price control  the price difference will post either sock account or price difference account.
    Goto>MM>LOGISTICS GENERAL>MATERIAL MASTER>FEILD SELECTION >ASSIGN FEILD SELECTION TO FEILD SELECTIN GROUPS(OMSR) >CHECK YOUR FEILD REFERENCE FOR PRICE CONTROL (MBEW-VPRSV) FEILD REFERNCE GROUP IS 32* > AND GOTO MAINTAIN FEILD REFERENCE FOR DATA SCREENS (OMS9) >ENTER  YOUR FEILD SELECTIN GROUP 32 (PRICE CONTROL )AND  CHOOSE MM01 MAKE IT FROM REQUIRED  TO OPTIONAL.

  • What   the   Enviroment  required  for java databases programs?

    Hi guys
    What the enviroment required for java databases programs?
    If I have oracle of version 9i and java 1.4.1 platform
    do I need Jdeveloper platform ?

    What the enviroment required for java databases programs?What do you mean by "environment"?
    f I have oracle of version 9i and java 1.4.1 platformYou just need to download Oracle's 9i JDBC driver (ojdbc14.jar) and put that in your CLASSPATH. Then write JDBC code to connect to Oracle and issue SQL commands.
    do I need Jdeveloper platform ?No, JDeveloper is an IDE. Not required.
    Why Java 1.4.1? We're up to Java 6 now. You're two major versions of the JDK behind.

  • You do not have permissions to access a database that contains data required for this form to function correctly.

    I have dropdown on infopath form , and it receives data from sql server table ,  it works fine when i am running in preview mode , but when i am publishing form to sharepoint server and loading that form
    i am getting this
    You do not have permissions to access a database that contains data required for this form to function correctly.
    Can you please help?
    Thanks,

    try this one, if not yet
    Convert the data connection to UDC (store it in a Data Connection Library within the same site collection as the form library).  See if this works without any other changes, but if not, then...
    Manually edit your UDC file in Notepad (or your preferred editor) so that the authentication line is not commented out and so that it references the name of the SSO target app you created. 
    For Type, use NTLM.
    Ensure the user has rights to access the database
    Also ensure the connection file has been approved - A sharepoint admin can access a non approved Ucdx file. Go to the connection library and approve the file

  • What are the requirements for publishing an App for private distribution, not sale.

    I need to create an App in English and 4 other languages for private distribution to individuals. What are the requirements for doing this please? I currently have a just a Single Edition license. Am I right in understanding I need a Cloud subscription and an Apple Developer subscription also?

    My client desire is to only make their accessible to paying members requiring a sign–in before download. Does this fall into a private distribution deployment.

  • "information required for activation couldn't be obtained"

    Hey, my (original, 16gb) phone was working fine all day. I started to download 2.1, and tried to add some movies (I have manual synch enabled) when I got an unknown error message. I ok'd, and continued on, and now whenever I connect my phone, I get a message "The iPhone _ cannot be used with iTunes because the information required for activation could not be obtained from the iPhone." and in smaller text, "check that the SIM card is inserted and that it is not PIN-locked." The iPhone screen says to connect to iTunes, and restarting it didn't remove this message. I'm positive that the sim card is inserted, as I used my phone multiple times today, and I've never PIN-Locked my phone. Could this issue be caused by the phone being in airplane mode? I put it in airplane mode to use some old iPod speakers, and forgot to take it out. I've never gotten this before. Please help me.

    I may have figured it out. I called apple (which you may want to do rather than try this alone). I had them stumped at first but then he had me force the phone into recovery mode. I held down both buttons until I got the apple logo and it went black at which point he said it is completely off.
    Then he had me unplug it which it already was. Then I held down the home button and plugged it in until I saw the usb plug again then I let it go. As I say, you may want to call them and tell them what I did to fix mine. I am sitting here watching it as it restores from my backup. Good luck and reply back if you have questions. I will try to answer them but I am no expert.

  • The information required for Activation cannot be obtained!

    While upgrading to the 2.0.1 iPhone Firmware the phone locked and now it won't sync with iTunes in that it states that "The iPhone cannot be used with iTunes because the information required for activation cannot be obtained from the iPhone." Does this mean that the iPhone needs to be returned, or is their a manual way to fix this problem?

    Try recovery mode. From:
    Eric Hermanson
    Posted: 15-Aug-2008 9:33 PM in response to: FH Person
    To enter recover mode:
    1. Turn your phone OFF. If you can't turn it off, FORCE a turn off by holding down the Power and the Home buttons together for 5 seconds.
    2. While your phone is turned OFF, HOLD DOWN the Home button. Keep it held down.
    3. Connect your phone to the USB cable on your computer. KEEP the Home button held down during all this time.
    4. Keep holding the Home button down until you see the iTunes/restore screens appear on your computer and your iPhone.
