Failover clusterign... How similar do the primary and failover instance need to be in a failover cluster?

How similar do the primary and failover instance need to be in a failover cluster?
Does the number of database have to match, naming, general config etc...
Mr Shaw

In failover clustering, you use shared storage so the number of databases is irrelevant since only one node can see/access the shared storage at any given point in time. Ideally, the server configuration should be the same on all of the nodes to minimize
potential issues that may impact downtime. However, you need to consider licensing/# of CPU-cores and implementation cost, especially if you are only using the other nodes as standby. As far as licensing is concerned, the standby has to have the same or fewer
number of CPU-cores as the primary node to be covered by licensing. Besides, you don't want your standby node to be more powerful than your primary node. This is why the option to have a hybrid deployment of having a physical server as the primary node and
virtual machine for standby nodes is now supported.

  • How similar is the performance and tuning 1z1-064 (12c) to the 1z0-054 (11g)?

    I had taken the Oracle 11g performance and Tuning class from Oracle.
    I am just wondering how close the 1z1-064 will be to the 1z0-054.
    I am also studying for the 1z1-064 exam.
    Are there any books out yet, or just the otn material.
    Thanks Roger

    Hopefully John Watson will pipe in on this.  I know he has taken both exams.  He recently noted on the OraFAQ forum that he had taken both the 1Z0-063 and 1Z0-064 beta exams.  His comments about them there were:
    "I would say that looking at the exams as a whole, there is a huge improvement over the 10g and 11g equivalents. The new exams cover a lot more material in a lot greater detail, and are a lot harder. These 12c exams are a Good Thing for the profession. They should filter out a lot of exam-cram only DBAs"
    It's not clear to me how much of that comment was directed at 063 and how much at 064. The topic list for 063 is much larger than that for 053.  However, the topic list for 064 is actually a bit smaller than that of 054.

  • HOW TO SEND THE REPORTS AND  THROUGH XI TO NON -SAP SYSTEM

    Hi Experts,
                 I want to know how to send the reports and  smartform through xi to another system. All the post blogs are   just explaning only about the FILE-TO-FILE, FILE-TO-IDOCS scenarios only.

    Hi,
    XI is the middleware that to be used to transfer the data between various systems and even you could design the Business Processes with it.
    In R/3 the smartforms, are generally converted to PDF and then  have to send it across to Non SAP systems. Similarly you can convert the smartforms to pdf format and keep it on application server. XI will pick up that pdf and will send it to Non SAP system either as mail or as an attachments.
    ABAP reports are normally used to re-present the data. If you need to transfer this data across the Non SAP systems then you have the IDOCs to be generated, RFC or ABAP Proxy to integrate this data with Non SAP system.
    XI is not restricted only upto file to file or file to IDOC scenarios. It have enormous capabilities to involve various Business Processes as well integrate various SAP or Non SAP systems.
    If need anymore  specific details, please let us know.
    Thanks

  • How to change the name and description of a wim using DISM

    With Imagex we could update the name and description of the wim with on easy command:
    imagex /info img_file [img_number or
    img_name] [new_name] [new_desc]
    e.g.
    imagex /info Win7Combined.WIM 1 "Win7(x86)" "Windows 7 x86"
    Since the ImageX tool is deprecated in Windows 8 and has been replaced with DISM, can someone explain how to update the name and description with one easy command using DISM like we could with Imagex?

    It looks like this person had the same issue. Have you seen this
    link
    It talks about exporting an Index into a new WIM. Which, in a way, would be renaming it. It's really recreating it and you have to give it a name. But it seems to work.

    Hi Gazpan,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    I recommend using the steps in this article to back up your iPhone if possible:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    You may also find this advice helpful for your situation:
    What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5661
    If you no longer have your iOS device
    If you're using iCloud and Find My iPhone on the device, you can erase the device remotely and remove it from your account by signing in to icloud.com/find, selecting the device, and clicking Erase. When the device has been erased, click Remove from Account.
    If you're unable to complete either of the above steps, you should change your Apple ID password. Changing your password won't remove any personal information that is cached on the device, but it will make sure that the new owner can't delete your information from iCloud.

  • How to change the day and time seen on the calendar

    Hi.
    I am a bit confused as to how to restrict the day and time shown on a calendar.
    The ical help says this:
    To change the days of the week or the number of hours that appear in the main calendar view, choose iCal > Preferences, and make your choices from the Week and Day pop-up menus in the General pane. For example, you can choose to only see the hours from 9AM to 5PM on Monday through Friday.
    However, in my preferences pane, i don't have a either a week or day pop up menu that i can see, so i can't seem to restrict these fields. It's really frustrating as calendars are beginning at 1am!!!!
    Anybody got any ideas?
    Thanks
    David Tobin

    OK, but what did the help menu mean when it said..
    To view the day's, week's, or month's events, click the Day, Week, or Month button at the bottom of the iCal window.
    To change the days of the week or the number of hours that appear in the main calendar view, choose iCal > Preferences, and make your choices from the Week and Day pop-up menus in the General pane. For example, you can choose to only see the hours from 9AM to 5PM on Monday through Friday.
    To change which months are shown in the mini-month calendar (in the lower-left corner of the iCal window), click the arrows above the mini-month calendar. To see more than one month, drag the mini-month divider (the horizontal gray bar above the diamond) upward.
    To see events that are earlier or later in the day, use the scroll bar on the right side of the main calendar view.
    To change the range of time in the main calendar view that is not shaded (representing your "normal" day), choose iCal > Preferences. In the General pane, choose the times you want to appear in white (not shaded) from the "Day starts at" and "Day ends at" pop-up menus. All times outside that range are shaded.
    This suggests that you should be able to limit the hours actually shown on the calendar to a set range as opposed to just changing the shaded area.
    Have you any idea how to achieve this, as i don't see the popup menu suggested with...

  • How to print the Terms and Condition page ine the sap-script

    Hi experts,
                             i got the requirement that how to print the Terms and condition page in the script,i have the three pages, having the same main window, in the last of the main window(all three pages)  i have called the hard coded text(i.e so10 text), but when i am displaying the output  data get printed in the first page but i am getting the second page heading on the top of  the terms and condiions page. In all the three pages i  have the same main window, if i  make change in any window i will affect all the other main  windows.  so please suggest me how i need to go.HOW TO GET GRID OF THE TEXT ON THE TOP OF THE SECOND PAGE OF THE TERMS AND CONDITONS.
    like this i have called in the MAIN WINDOW
    /E : LAST ( IN ALL THREE PAGES)
           INCLUDE ZSD_INVOICE_TERMS TEXT OBJECT TEXT LANGUAGE EN.
    IN THE TCODE SO10
    NEW PAGE TERMS.
    1) TERM MS AND CONDITONS  TEXT.................................................
    FIRST->NEXT, NEXT->NEXT,,   TERMS--->TERMS.

    Hi,
    1. Create a new page by Name : LAST
    2. Identify the text element which will be the last element in the form in the debug mode.
    Mostly Ex: SUM, TOTAL, LAST etc.,
    3. the page linking should be
    First --> Next
    Next --> Next
    4. In the Text element identified in the step 3.
    Write the following code
    /: NEW PAGE  LAST
    /: INCLUDE the standard text created for the terms and conditions in SO10
    Check the syntax for the command but the logic will be the same.
    It should resolve your problem.

    Hi Yang,
    Workflow is the best approach for any issue related to business objects.
    Since you want call FM BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE, it will change SO. It means everytime any SO is changed there will an event being triggered.
    object type: BUS2032
    event: Changed
    simple solution:
    1. Please create object type (SWO1) and its super type should be BUS2032.
    2. Add your own method and attach your custom FM which actually updates the qty & PR)
    3. Create Task (PFTC_INS)
    in basic data:
    - provide object type which you have created
    - provide method which you have added
    goto triggering events tab
    - Choose Object Category as BOR object type
    - provide object type (better give BUS2032)
    - provide event as CHANGED
    Please have look into very nice video blog which helps you to create your workflow.
