Disaster Recovery (DR) Setup

Hi All,
I need to have a fail-over system for BODS so that if Prod goes down, the DR version can take-over as soon as possible.
Whereas I can install BDOS on the DR box, and setup SQLServer replication for the database itself fro repositories etc, what I don't understand is how the DR system would be able to take over from Prod properly given that Jobserver ports, access server ports, Management Console settings, Tomcat settings, the server name itself (for RFC Server links and other DS console links etc) and the URL for Webservice provision and WSDL -- All these things would be different wouldn't they?
So, what can be done to set up a fully replicating DR box that, with minimal effort, could replace the Prod as closely as possible? How to keep everythign in sync that isn't in the repository database?
Thanks,
Flip.

Hi Flip,
I'm also interested in a DR solution. I hope that someone can help us out.
Cheers,
Mike

  • MaxDB disaster Recovery site setup

    Hello Experts
    We are hosting SAP apllication in our datacentre. For one of our customer we need Disaster Recovery site. As planned by our maneegment we are going to have a DR centre at some other location. Our DC and DR are connected by suffcient link.
    My SAP Instance is running ion MaxDB database and RHEL5. Can you please suggest me how I should look forward to set up the DR site?
    Can I setup a SAP server in my DR site with same SID server will restore the initial backup from DC and then go for log mirroring?  In this case I will have to install SAP system with same SID? IP address?

    There are several possibilities to approach your goal, for a start check
    Note 952783 - FAQ: MaxDB high availability
    It has a nice comparison of the different possibilities.

  • EP6 disaster recovery environment setup

    I would like to check if anyone on (EP6 SP2 patch 5, Windows 2003 server platform, Oracle database) who may have setup a disaster recovery (DR) environment (obviously in a different location to their production environment). We are also using KM and collaboration.
    We need to create an off-site DR environment for our EP6 solution and need to replicate data to this site every 4-6 hours so that we could recover in the event of a disaster (and not lose more than 6 hours worth of data).
    If you know have experience or know of someone who has done this before,(Windows platform), pls let me know.

    Hi Rajev,
    Duplicating your EP6 installation on a differend server is rather straightforward, so I will not go into that part.  With respect to your Oracle DB, one way of doing this would be to cross-link your log files to the DR server.  Then in case of recovery, you would only need to bring-up the Oracle DB, apply the log files, and then startup your EP6 instance.  Depending on the hardware you're using, your DR environment shoud be able to take over within a matter of 10-15 minutes.

  • Advice on best way to setup Disaster Recovery for SOA Suite 10.1.3.4

    Hi Everyone,
    I need some advice on the best way to setup Disaster Recovery for a SOA Suite 10.1.3.4 install deploying JSF/ADF OC4J applications.
    The way we are trying to do it at the moment is manually copy the "applications" and "applications-deployments" folders for the OC4J application on the production server, then compress and ship the files across to the DR application server nightly. (We don't require high availability).
    In the event of a disaster we then extract the files and copy to the OC4J instance (pre-created and configured) on the DR server. Unfortunately to date we haven't been able to reliably setup a DR application (seem to mostly get 404 errors etc), even though the OC4J application has its connection pool resolved to the DR database and is showing as "up" in the ASConsole.
    My question is, is there a more "native" way to do what we are trying to do. We do not have Enterprise version of SOA Suite or 11g database so any advanced recovery features are not an option. The setup is also stand alone, i.e. we are not using clustering or RAC etc.
    Any ideas would be really helpful.
    Thanks,
    Leigh.
    PS we are also running the production apps server with Oracle Application server 10g 10.1.2.3.0 as the HTTP apache server (with Forms, Reports and Discoverer deployed) and the SOA Suite 10.1.3 applications use the 10.1.2 HTTP server via the HTTP to AJP bridge. So the 10.1.3 OC4J instance is configured to use AJP on port range 12501 - 12600.

    For enterprise solutions, AS Guard would work.
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25221_04/core.1013/b15977/disasrecov.htm#sthref303
    However, since advanced recovery options are not available (as you said), then what you are doing should not be too bad.

  • Best Way to setup a disaster Recovery site for a logical standby database

    I have a logical standby DB (L1DB) as a reporting db on the same machine as the primary (P1DB). We are planning on building a disaster recovery site with similar hardware and potentially have disk mirroring of atleast the redo log files.
    The DR site can hold an additional physical standby (S1DB) for the primary (P1DB). I am trying to understand what would be the best way to setup the Disaster Recovery site for the L1DB logical stdby. Ideally, when the disaster happens, and I no longer have P1DB and L1DB, I should be able to switch to S1DB as the new primary. But how do I setup to have a L2DB that takes the place of L1DB and has its contents and can be setup as a logical standby of S1DB?

    If you already setup one logical standby, then you know how it works, so not sure what question you are asking ?
    Personally I would setup L2DB as a standby of the original primary P1DB. Having downstream standby databases complicates things, and adds additional lag between primary transaction time and L2DB apply.

  • Cisco Expressway Core & Edge Cluster, or Disaster Recovery Setup

    Hi All,
    Dear experts,
    I have two sites HQ & Branch.below are my questions for Expressway Core & Edge Cluster
    1. Can i create one cluster for 6 sever for  Expressway Core and distribute 3 server in HQ &  3 server in Branch for HA
    2. Can i create one cluster for 6 sever for  Expressway Edge and distribute 3 server in HQ & 3 server in Branch for HA
    3. How would be the DNS SRV records and call flow work if the main site  Expressway Edge goes down in HQ. How the Branch Side Expressway Edge becomes active for B2B calls.
    4. What is the best design to have disaster recovery for Expressway core and Expressway Edge between Sites(HQ & Branch)
    Regards,
    Irf

    Regarding 1 and 2, as long as the round trip delay is no more than 30ms maximum, you should be fine.  I presume the HQ Branch offices for the Expressway-Core have a shared internal network, since the Core goes inside the corporate network, while the Edge goes in the DMZ or outside the network for public access.
    For 3, as long as you have your SRV records setup correct, you can set the priority of which office gets used first, and then second, in case of a failure.
    I don't have an answer for 4 unfortunately.

  • OIM 11gR2- Disaster Recovery Setup

    Hi,
    Does anyone has suggestions/already in place architecture for Deploying OIM11gR2 setup in Disaster Recovery Mode.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Regards

    What are the requirements/expectations out of DR? Do you need to replicate the same infra in terms of NFR's e.g. DR site has same performance and user capacity like production then you need to replicate the production infrastructure/architecture in DR data center. However DR strategy completely depends on Client strategy. In Ideal scenerio DR site is cold (i.e. only active in case of production failure) and has same capacity like production. But depending on the client you may want to propose the scale down version of production on DR site and you can also check if you can keep the DR site active also to increase the solution performance. All this need to think through in terms of criticality of the IAM functionality, cost of infrastructure, cost of licence and DR policy for the Client. Now a days every client prefer RAC database but few clients go with Non RAC databases also with storage/disk backup in DR site on every interval.

  • UCM setup  DR (Disaster Recovery) environment

    Hi all,
    We did implementation part in production. Now we are planning setup DR (Disaster Recovery) environment.When ever Production will goes down automatically RD will take place to provide continue services to user, But in installation part of RD little bit challenging,let me know below problems how we can override.
    1)     While installing UCM in DR environment I need to give Production DB schema details, Is it workout (if I give production DB Schema details , is there any effect in production )
    2)     All ways production and DR both file systems will sync up every time. How we can achieve these thing?
    Thanks.

    Vijay,
    read this document: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17904_01/doc.1111/e15250/recommendations.htm#CHDGAEEA
    In a nutshell:
    - as for installation, configuration, etc. I'd suggest you to use images (OracleVM will do you the service and it's almost free)
    - you will need to synchronize database AND file system
    - if Oracle DB Enterprise Edition is your database, you may use DataGuard to synchronize primary and secondary locations (DG is free in EE, in SE or other databases you may use Oracle Golden Gate or a third party product)
    - for file system you will need a 3rd party system (I was recommended TrueCopy - this very much depends who is your HW provider)
    Note that you can use file system synchronization even for database - I'd suggest to use Partitioning option, because the size of files that need to be synchronize will be smaller - but you might transfer also errors in the database, whilst DataGuard will transfer only correct transactions, so your secondary db will always be in a consistent state.

  • Need recommentation to setup Disaster recovery site

    Hi All,
    1.What are the basic things we need to analyze before we recommend the business to go for oracle Dataguard for DR setup?
    2. Do you know any technology that will replicate the schema from one datacenter[one primary database ] to another datacenter [secondary or replication database]?
    3. What are the various option to configure the disaster recovery plan at schema level?
    Thanks

    Hello;
    1.What are the basic things we need to analyze before we recommend the business to go for oracle Dataguard for DR setup?Network - bandwidth requirements. How much Redo do you generate? How far away is the standby site? ( proposed network bandwidth and latency )
    Power - UPS requirements ( how will you monitor the standby site )
    RMAN requirements - Where would you backup? At the primary site or the standby site? If Standby what is the cost of extra equipment? How far away should the standby site be?
    Business needs for data ( 24/7, 6 to 6 Monday - Friday etc ) This would help determine a possible protection mode and what switchover failover options you might need.
    Allowed downtime if any ( patches, upgrades etc)
    How much data loss can be tolerated if you have network, hardware issues? For Primary site? If standby site is lost?
    The idea is to develop a plan that meets your business needs.
    2. Do you know any technology that will replicate the schema from one datacenter[one primary database ] to another datacenter [secondary or replication database]?Data Guard Logical Standby since you pick what you want to apply
    Data Pump will also work
    3. What are the various option to configure the disaster recovery plan at schema level?Going to depend upon how much protect the business requires. If all you want is a copy then Data Pump might work.
    If you require zero data loss then Data Guard is the way to go.
    Frankly I would not use a Logical Standby, I would use a physical standby so I could switchover.
    A Logical Standby is a nice idea, but a physical gives you an exact copy and I believe is much easier to maintain.

  • Need help for Disaster Recovery setup and configuration

    Hi Gurus.
    We are planning to have disaster recovery test plan. Normally we setup our network at another site and then restore data there and then do configuration and setup to run SAP system to new network.
    But this is little more time consuming. We are planning to do something which will might save our time.
    We want to create one Application instance on Central instance on current production server. This instance will be "deactivated" and will not run on production server.
    When we will do the disaster recovery, we will restore CI filesystem to Disaster recovery network. That time this new application instance  will aslo get copied. Once this is done, we just need to go to this instance and start SAP System. This way we will save our time of configuring the new instance and then starting it.
    e.g
    Production host -> prdhost1
    Central Instance -> /usr/sap/P01/DVEBMGS00
    and it's subdirectory: data, work, log, sec
    create new application instance -> /usr/sap/P01/D03
    and it's subdirectory: data, work, log, sec
    create new instance profile -> P01_D03_prdhost1, START_D03_prdhost1
    this configuration will be created but SAP instance will not be started. It will be copied to Disaster Recovery new site and in that new network , there we can start this new application instance.
    Please let me know if we can do that ? if yes, are we going to face any issue in production?
    Other than mentioned above, what FileSystem we need to take care for creating new instance?
    Any help will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance
    Best Regards,
    Basis CK

    Hi!
    Sorry but your scenario is a little bit confusing.
    Let me guess if I understood, you want to configure a "virtual" instance to be able to use it in case of DR.
    I don't advise you to do things that way. Why not use virtual hosts and virtual instances like we do when implementing instances within a cluster or metrocluster.
    You must have the license from DR server installed. I you use virtual hosts all DR issues like printers, logon groups, RFC groups, etc... will be solved.
    If you use virtual hosts and virtual instances all you need to do is replicate the environment into DR site, restore the system and start production.
    Of course... you are using UNIX and within UNIX world all these things are much easier.
    Bear in mind that if you have JAVA instances then I think this is the only recommended procedure.
    Cheers,

  • SharePoint 2010 backup and restore to test SharePoint environment - testing Disaster recovery

    We have a production SharePoint 2010 environment with one Web/App server and one SQL server.   
    We have a test SharePoint 2010 environment with one server (Sharepoint server and SQL server) and one AD (domain is different from prod environment).  
    Servers are Windows 2008 R2 and SQL 2008 R2.
    Versions are the same on prod and test servers.  
    We need to setup a test environment with the exact setup as production - we want to try Disaster recovery. 
    We have performed backup of farm from PROD and we wanted to restore it on our new server in test environment.Backup completed successfully with no errors.
    We have tried to restore the whole farm from that backup on test environment using Central administration, but we got message - restore failed with errors.
    We choosed NEW CONFIGURATION option during restore, and we set new database names... 
    Some of the errors are:
    FatalError: Object User Profile Service Application failed in event OnPreRestore. For more information, see the spbackup.log or sprestore.log file located in the backup directory.

    Could you please help us to resolve these issues?  

    I'd totally agree with this. Full fledged functionality isn't the aim of DR, getting the functional parts of your platform back-up before too much time and money is lost.
    Anything I can add would be a repeat of what Jesper has wisely said but I would very much encourage you to look at these two resources: -

  • Disaster Recovery set-up for SharePoint 2013

    Hi,
    We are migrating our SP2010 application to SP2013. It would be on-premise setup using virtual environment.
    To handle disaster recovery situation, it has been planned to have two identical farms (active, passive) hosted in two different  datacenters.
    I have prior knowledge of disaster recovery only at the content DB level.
    My Question is how do we make two farm identical and how do we keep Database of both the farm always in sync.
    Also if a custom solution is pushed into one of the farm, how does it replicate to the other farm.
    Can someone please help me in understanding this D/R situation. 
    Thanks,
    Rahul

    Metalogix Replicator will replicate content, but nothing below the Web Application level (you'd still have to configure the SAs, Central Admin settings, deploy solutions, etc.).
    While AlwaysOn is a good choice, do remember that ASync AO is not supported across all of SharePoint's databases (see
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj841106.aspx). LogShipping is a good choice, especially with content databases as they can be placed in a read only mode on the DR farm for an
    active crawl to be completed against them.

    How to ask a good question
    Make sure to give all the pertinent information that people will need to answer your question. Questions like “I got an IO error, any ideas?” or “What’s the best technology for me to use?” will likely go unanswered, or at best just result in a request for more information. Here are some ideas of what to include:
    For the “I got an IO error, any ideas?” scenario:
    The exact error message. (The SQL Errorlog and Windows Event Logs can be a rich source of information. See the section on error logs below.)
    What were you doing when you got the error message?
    When did this start happening?
    Any troubleshooting you’ve already done. (e.g. “I’ve already checked all the firmware and it’s up-to-date” or "I've run SQLIOStress and everything looks OK" or "I ran DBCC CHECKDB and the output is <blah>")
    Any unusual occurrences before the error occurred (e.g. someone tripped the power switch, a disk in a RAID5 array died)
    If relevant, the output from ‘DBCC CHECKDB (yourdbname) WITH ALL_ERRORMSGS, NO_INFOMSGS’
    The SQL Server version and service pack level
    For the “What’s the best technology for me to use?” scenario:
    What exactly are you trying to do? Enable local hardware redundancy? Geo-clustering? Instance-level failover? Minimize downtime during recovery from IO errors with a single-system?
    What are the SLAs (Service Level Agreements) you must meet? (e.g. an uptime percentage requirement, a minimum data-loss in the event of a disaster requirement, a maximum downtime in the event of a disaster requirement)
    What hardware restrictions do you have? (e.g. “I’m limited to a single system” or “I have several worldwide mirror sites but the size of the pipe between them is limited to X Mbps”)
    What kind of workload does you application have? (or is it a mixture of applications consolidated on a single server, each with different SLAs) How much transaction log volume is generated?
    What kind of regular maintenance does your workload demand that you perform (e.g. “the update pattern of my main table is such that fragmentation increases in the clustered index, slowing down the most common queries so there’s a need to perform some fragmentation removal regularly”)
    Finding the Logs
    You will often find more information about an error by looking in the Error and Event logs. There are two sets of logs that are interesting:
    SQL Error Log: default location: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.#\MSSQL\LOG (Note: The # changes depending on the ID number for the installed Instance. This is 1 for the first installation of SQL Server, but if you have mulitple instances, you will need to determine the ID number you’re working with. See the BOL for more information about Instance ID numbers.)
    Windows Event Log: Go to the Event Viewer in the Administrative Tools section of the Start Menu. The System event log will show details of IO subsystem problems. The Application event log will show details of SQL Server problems.

    hi,I have a question on sql database high availability. I have tried using database mirroring, where I am using sql standard edition, in this database mirroring of synchronous mode is the only option available, and it is giving problem, like sql time out errors on my applicatons since i had put in the database mirroring, as asynchronous is only available on enterprise version, is there any suggestions on this. thanks ---vijay

  • Planning Disaster Recovery Site for SAP ERP ECC 6.0

    Dear All,
    I am planning for DR ( Disaster Recovery ) Site. Our current environment is
    Production Site
    OS        : AIX 5.3
    DB        : IBM DB2      version 8.2
    SAP      : SAP ERP 6.0 ECC 6
    Disaster Recovery Site
    OS        : AIX 6.1
    DB        : IBM DB2      version 9.5
    SAP      : SAP ERP 6.0 ECC 6
    I have following confusion in planning the solution.
    1 - If I export the data at db level from production site and import that data in DR Site ...  than DR Site will be equivalent to Production Site or not.
    2 - if answer of point 1 is yes then for SAP DR ...  HADR is the best solution or there is any other better solution exist.
    regards
    Syed Saifuddin

    Hello Syed,
    If you export from the prod db and import into the disastor recover db then they will be the same provided that SAP environment is all the same. I would recommend that you update the prod side to the same db2 release and fixpack level as soon as possible though as 9.5 (or even better 9.7) has some advanced features that make administration alot easier and save much space.
    HADR would be the best setup for disaster recovery in db6 environment.
    Check the following documentation which should answer most of your queries.

  • Datafiles Mismatch in production & disaster recovery server

    Datafiles Mismatch in production & disaster recovery server though everything in sync
    We performed all the necessary prerequisites & processes related to DRS switchover successfully also our DRS server is constantly updated through logs application in mount state whan we opened DRS database in mount state it opened successfully however when we issued command
    Recover database
    It dumped with foll errors:
    ora-01122 database file 162 failed verification check
    ora-01110 data file 162 </oracle/R3P/sapdata7/r3p*****.data>
    ora-01251 unknown file header version read for file 162
    as I do not remember the exact name now
    However upon comparing the same file at production(which was now in shutdown state) the file sizes were mismatching so we went ahead to copy the datafile from production to DRS in database shutdown state at DRS through RCP utitlity of AIX 5.3 since our Operating system is AIX 5.3
    Though this remote copy was success
    we again started database in mount state & issued command
    Recover database
    But still it dump the same error but now for another datafile in DRS
    I mean I would appreciate if somebody could point out that despite our DRS was constantly being updated through our Production in terms of continuous log application before this activity logs were sync in both the systems also origlos,mirrorlogs & controlfiles were pulled from production system as it is infact the whole structure was as replica of production system , then why did datafile sizes mismatch??
