Etherchannel between a server and 2 switches

I have a customer who has a switch with channel groups set up. Each server has 4 nics going to their 3560 and there is a channel group set up for each server. They want to add another 3560. Can I spread the channel groups across the 2 switches? So each server will have 2 connections to each switch?

Etherchannel to one server should not be and cannot be spread across 2 switches. If the server happens to use the same MAC and IP address on all 4 ports , it would cause switches to report mac address flapping. Etherchannel is point to point technology.
But if you want to create 2 separate etherchannel to 2 different switches , that should be fine. e.g 2 ports on a server is in 1 port channel and going to 1 switch and 2 ports in a separate channel going to a second switch is fine. One channel should not be spread across 2 different switches.
Hope this helps.

  • Replication between Oracle Server and MS SQL Server

    Hello,
    Does anybody know of a well known or reliable software that can do data replication between Oracle Server and Microsoft SQL server.
    I suppose I can write my own version using Heterogenous Services in Oracle but I would like to know if such an automated replication between Oracle and SQL is available commercially.
    Thank you.

    Sorry, Aman,
    I couldn't find any info about replication to MS SQL. Is it possible at all? Could you provide link where we can read about this? It could be very interesting.Sorry Viacheslav, even I couldn't find anything for the same. I am not sure that it can be done or not, I haven't heard anyone in my contact doing so. The only place where I have seen Streams being used around me is within Oracle db only. May be someone else can help if he/she has done it.

  • The difference of the IEEE802.1x Auth between Cisco Routers and Catalyst switches

    Hello
    I am investigating the difference of the IEEE802.1x Auth between Routers and Switches.
    Basically dot1x auth is availlable on Catalyst Switches. however if I want to check to
    PortBased Multi-Auth , MAC address Auth and any certification Auth with this feature,
    Is it possible to integrate into Cisco Router such as Cisco 891F ?
    In my opinion Cisco891F is also available to use basic IEEE802.1x but if it compares with Catalyst switches such as Cat3560X
    I think there might be any unsupported feature on Cisco 891F.
    I appreciate any information. thank you very much in advance.

    Many time in interviews asked comaprison between cisco  routers and switches that i was answerless bcoz i dont have much knowledge about that.Can anyone provide me the compariosin sheet of the same.how are the cisco devices differ with each other how much Bandwidth each routres support and Etc...
    Ummmm ... The most common question I get is "what is the difference between a router and a switch".
    However, if you get a question like this, then my impression to this line of questioning are:
    1.  The candidate they are looking for has in-depth knowledge of routers and switches.  And I mean IN-DEPTH!;
    2.  They are not looking for a candidate.  They just want to stroke their ego.  There is not alot of people who can give you the "names and numbers" of routers and switches at a snap of a finger.  And if you do happen to know the answer, then and there, then expect a tougher follow-up question. 

  • Diff. between content server and archive server(SARA on content server)

    I am very interested about difference between content server and archive server. Is there content server supplied by SAP and archive server by third party producers or something else?
    If so dditionally what needs to be done to archive data (via Sara) on content server. I did it on sap R/3 4.0 on an archive server. Is it huge difference to do it on 4.7x2 on content server?

    Hey,
    The content server is used to save documents,
    and SARA (and other third party producers) are used to archive old data.
    For example:
    You should use Content server - When you need to save un-structured data about worker (e.g: pictures, documents and etc) .
    You should use SARA (and other third parties) - When you need to move to archive old
    worker which have left your organization before 5 or more years (there for they are not relevant for you)
    Here is some more information about Content server
    from help.sap.com:
    "Therefore, besides the SAP database, an external content server is always available in every SAP system installation. In this way, the necessary technical infrastructure is provided for all document-centric applications and business scenarios that do not require a long-term archiving solution"
    Here is some more information about SARA and archiving
    from help.sap.com:
    "Data Archiving removes from the database application data from closed business transactions that are no longer relevant for the operational business. The archived data is stored in archive files that can be accessed by the system in read-only mode."

  • Communication protocol between Admin Server and Managed Server

    Hello - I am hoping someone can help me here to understand the communication protocols used in my setup.
    Here is my understanding of the protocol that are used between each component.
    End User <--->HTTPS<--->LoadBalancer Device<--->HTTPS<--->Web Server<---->HTTPS<--->WebLogic Server(Managed Server)<--->LDAP/JDBC<-->Data tier components
    AdminServer<--->T3<--->Managed Server i.e. The communication protocol between Admin Server and Managed server is T3
    The communication protocol between Managed Servers running in one cluster on two seperate machine is What?
    Thank you.

    Hello, interesting question.
    In the documentation " [cluster multicast communication|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13222_01/wls/docs90/cluster/features.html#1007001] " don't specify the used protocol to pack the information for example in a session replication.
    Although in a session replication all objects must be serializable i don't think rmi protocol is used.
    I hope some expert give us some light in this issue :-)

  • Principal difference between an Idoc and a Switch document.

    Hello
    what is the principal difference between an Idoc and a Switch document.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    A switch document documents a process, such as, switch of supplier, in a liberalized market and can be monitored with own transactions. The process steps are usually controlled by workflows.
    An IDoc is used to transfer data from one system to another one in a predefined package. When you import an IDoc containing a market message, a workflow can be started creating/updating switch documents.
    Kind regards,

  • Difference between application server and central instance

    Hi everyone,
    whats the difference between application server and central instance and message server. where it will be installed. and how?
    Regards
    Basis Fresher

    Hi,
    just want to clarify that is is not correct that only one enqueue process can be configured on the CI.
    Please see the documentation within transaction RZ11 for the parameter Parameter : rdisp/wp_no_enq
    Short description : number of enqueue work processes
    Parameter description :
    You can use this parameter to define the number of enqueue work processes for the instance.
    Ensure that a value >0 is only set on the central instance that provides the enqueue server (instance rdisp/enqname ). One enqueue work process on the central instance is normally sufficient (rdisp/wp_no_enq = 1); only in very large systems can a higher value be useful.

  • Different between shared server and dedicated server

    could you explain difference between shared server and dedicated server.

    Oracle has two modes, a shared server mode and a dedicated server mode. In dedicated server mode (the default), the Oracle server creates one process per connection.
    This quickly limits the number of connections the Oracle Server can support due to the following:
    1.There is an OS limit on how many processes/file descriptors can be supported
    2.Oracle has an internal PROCESSES parameter that prevents it from launching more than the specified number of processes.
    When it is anticipated that these limits may be exceeded, which frequently happens for 50-100 concurrent connections, you should either configure Oracle in shared server mode or increase the limits above, so that many concurrent connections can be supported by each Oracle process. Oracle states that running in shared server mode is slightly slower than in dedicated server mode.
