Hig Availability

RDBMS 10.2 standard edition
Hi,
I have oracle standard edition and HA solutions like dataguard and RAC are part of Enterprise Edition.
Enterprise license cost is too high for me.
Is there any third party applications or with in oracle standard , a way to implement HA with standard edition?

I think it depends on what your business requirements are. You could also use Cold-Failover with clusterware. AFAIK License cost are minimal because you don't have to license the seconad server, if you don't use it for more that 8 days a year. But better contact an sales representative for that.
Here is a good resource for cold failover: http://www.google.de/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CBgQhgIwAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.rachelp.nl%2Fuserfiles%2Ffile%2FCold%2520Failover%2520with%2520Oracle%2520Clusterware%2520V2(1).pdf&ei=k5Y0TZSPINGdOtjLyLYC&usg=AFQjCNGHln8Zb05xy5x-M-sXy-lNX3RPhA

NW 7.3: (A)SCS/SCS/ERS - use the same IP

Hi,
evaluation tests with SAP NW 7.3 show that the instances of (A)SCS and ERS just using the same IP (in previous release ASCS and SCS have their own IP; depending on the releases ERS request an IP or not for installation procedure).
In a single host environment the new behavour doesn't matter. If you operate in a virtualized environment (where each instance type can run at any host with its own IP at th same time) it will not work furthermore. You can't use the same IP on different hosts at the same time.
So I have two questions
1.) Is it possible to reorganize the installation according to the previous conditions used in older SAP NW releases
2.) If answer of question 1) is 'yes', what does it mean if I use ACC to control/administer my SAP landscape
3.) If answer of question 1) is 'yes', what does it mean for the support of such installations by SAP
Kind regards
Karlheinz

Hi Karlheinz Heger
With ASCS (ms + enq) SAP also introduced an ERS (enqueue replication server) to provide high availability for the enqueue server.
ERS is a standalone component and it runs on another host and connects with the enqueue server. Once connected, the enqueue server sends lock table replication data to the replication server. The replication server maintains a shadow lock table with the replication data. The shadow lock table exists in the shared memory and is used to rebuild lock table for the failed enqueue server when it is restarted on the same host where the replication server is running. Thus, the host where the standalone enqueue server is running and the host where the replication server is running must be clustered so that failed enqueue server can be restarted on the host where the shadow lock table is maintained. Once the enqueue server rebuilds the lock table from the shadow lock table, the replication server is shutdown.
So in nutshell you need to install ERS and ASCS on seprate host if you want real hig availability without failed transaction.
If you have ERS and ASCS on same host it would not be HA.
Hope this helps

Help with starting a VLAN implementation

Our network is currently all a single subnet with two 3550 and one 3524XL switches, as well as an ICS-7750 VoIP system. Our default gateway is a 515 Pix.
I would like to implement VLANs - probably users, voice, a WLAN guest for internet only, and a WWAN. DHCP server is Windows.
From here I know that I'll need a router, but I would like advice as to which. I think I have enough sample documentation to get it from there, however if what I have planned isn't possible I would like advice on a revised plan.
Thanks for any direction that can be provided!

Hello Brian,
What software version are you running on the 3550 ?? Is it EMI or SMI ?? If it is EMI, the 3550 can support the Intervlan routing. You do not need an external router for this. Incase, it is SMI, & if you have an IOS more than 12.1(11) EA1, you can run Intervlan routing. Its always good to have a Layer 3 switch which does the L3 routing between VLANs, since you can have more control of the traffic flowing through it. You can also implement stuffs like HSRP on these core switches and give a higly available design.. Have a look at this doc, which can help you in Inter-vlan routing:
http://cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk389/tk815/technologies_configuration_example09186a008019e74e.shtml
You can implement VLANs on the core and configure it as a VTP server. The edge switches can be configured as clients or transparent mode.
You can implement different kinds of VLANs. I guess u have all the config docs on CCO. For WLAN guests, you can manually configure the Guest VLAN on the interface or use some kinda ACS authentication server for automatic allocation of VLAN through DOT1X protocol. So, your case it would be straight forward for the other VLANs --- go to the vlan database, add the VLAN, assign the VLAN on the interface, define Layer 3 VLAN interface if required and finish it off. For more security, u can configure VLAN ACL's on the Layer 3 interface to restrict traffic between VLANs.
Hope this helps. all the best.. rate replies if found useful.

Failover between ASA5515-X and ASA5510

Hi,
I would like to know if it's possible and how can we setup a failover between ASA 5515-X and a ASA 5510.
I'm aware that the ASA 5510 requires Security Plus for HA Active/Active.
Any answer are welcome,
Thanks !

Hi Jouni,
Thanks for your prompt answer !
Too bad to hear that we can't achieve that :/
I guess that in the concept, HA must be same hardware (make sense of course, as we need to be "higly" available if one hardware fall down),
but for the concept to "fail" over something, it would have been great to have features within multi device (like you can temporary "fail" over a 10 Mbps line when your 100 Mbps is down...)
But well, too much concept, it's how it is ! ;= Thanks again for your accurate answer !
Nice day'

If RAC interconnect can handle this?

Could anybody tell me if RAC cluster still persists if we take if out of network? I mean to ask if nodes will still be able to talk to each other via interconnect? Does CRS handle all this?
Thanks to all in advance
gtcol

Hello,
Consider a scenario, Two node rac cluster with each node having one Public, Private and Virtual IP configured.
f your Public interface is down on either one of the nodes then CRS decides to move VIP to another node of the cluster and listener configured on that node would go offline state, also some of the higly available services which are running on that node using it as Preferred node would move to another node from that node . However if your Private interconnect fails due to some problem on either of the nodes, then NODE EVICTION process is started by CRS in order to avoid Split Brain Situation, the CRS evicts that node from the cluster and reboots that node.
In case of public network failure between all the nodes, all the services would go offline.

Live Migration between two WS2012 R2 Clusters with SCVMM 2012 R2 creates multiple objects on Cluster

Hi,
I'm seeing an issue when migrating VM's between two 2012 R2 Hyper-V Clusters, using VMM 2012 R2, that have their Storage provided by a 4 Node Scale Out File Server Cluster that the two clusters share.
A migration between the two clusters is successful and the VM is operation but I'm left with two roles added to the cluster the VM has moved to instead of the expected one.
For example: Say I have a VM that was created on cluster A with SCVMM, resulting in a name of : "SCVMM Test-01 Resources"
I then do a live migration to Cluster B which has access to the same storage and then I end up with two new roles instead of one.
"SCVMM abw-app-fl-01 Resources" and "abw-app-fl-01"
The "SCVMM abw-app-fl-01 Resources" is left in an unknown state and "abw-app-fl-01" is operational.
I can safely delete "SCVMM abw-app-fl-01 Resources" and everything still works but it looks like something is failing during the process.
Has anyone else seen this?
I'll probably have one of my guys open a support ticket in the new year but was wondering if anyone else is seeing this.
Kind regards,
Jas :)

In my case the VMs where created in VMM in my one and only Hyper-V cluster (that's been created and is managed by VMM).
All Higly Available VM:s have a FCM role named "SCVMM vmname" where vmname is the name if the VM in VMM. On top of that a lot
of VM:s, but not all, have a second role name named vmname. Lots of name in that sentence.
All VMs that have duplicates are using the role named vmname.
I thought it had to do with whether a VM had been migrated so I took one that never had been migrated and did. It did not get a duplicate.
Is there any progress on this?

Outlook Anywhere, high availability cas issue.

We are beginning a deployment of a 3 node exchange 2013 dag/cas group and have hit a snag with outlook anywhere.
the configuration:
SIDHEX01A - DAG member and CAS
SIDHEX02A - DAG member and CAS
SIDHEX03A - DAG member and CAS
We have one live database running on SIDHEX02A with passive copies on 1 and 3. We have 5 live users functioning as a test group.
DNS: we have internal DNS set to resolve mail.domain.net as all three servers. We have public DNS set to resolve mail.domain.net to an external ip on our firewall. From there we forward ports 25, 80, and 443 to server SIDHEX02A.
All 3 servers have Certs for mail.domain.net applied to iis and smtp.
We have set the external ( and internal names) of all the exchange services to mail.domain.net including owa, ecp, outlook anywhere, oab, activesync, and ews.
Our next step plan was to replace the direct port forward with a load balancer completing the high availability cas, when we hig hthe following snag:
The DAG works prefectly.
OWA, activesync, ecp, oab, ews all function fine.incomming and outgoing mail works perfectly. we simulate cas load balancing by changing the port forwarding to direct to a different cas server.
We are however experiencing some weird behavior with outlook anywhere.
We have a large number of users that work completely off-prem and will be using outlook with out ever connecting to the internal network at all. When we try to configue outlook to connect to the CAS we are trying to use the following:
server: mail.domain.net
exchange proxy: mail.domain.net
This doesn't work, the outlook client never finds the server.
testexchange reports that it is unable to ping the proxy server (it is pingable) after corectly checking certs and doing all the other communications.
Attempting to ping RPC proxy mail.domain.net.
RPC Proxy can't be pinged.
Additional Details
A Web exception occurred because an HTTP 404 - NotFound response was received from Unknown.
Headers received:
request-id: e9462008-75e2-4990-9d0f-a6c5514f5bce
X-CasErrorCode: EndpointNotFound
Persistent-Auth: true
X-FEServer: SIDHEX02A
Content-Length: 0
Cache-Control: private
Date: Mon, 30 Dec 2013 02:46:34 GMT
Server: Microsoft-IIS/8.0
X-AspNet-Version: 4.0.30319
X-Powered-By: ASP.NET
Elapsed Time: 21308 ms.
Now if we tell the outlook client to use SIDHEX02A as the server name outlook will resolve the mailbox and everything apears great, except for two issues.
With a load balancer implimented we wouldnt know what the target server name was.
Secondly, we see some sort of link in outlook to the internal server name. On a cas failover outlook functions perfectly until it is closed and reopens with around a 60 second "trying to connect" before finally resolving the mailbox. This apears to
be permanent, if we start an outlook profile on sidhex03a for example, it will have 60 sec delays on 01 or 02, but never 03. Its as if the client is looking for its "home server" before considering alternitives.
Its posible that the load balancer would resolve some of this and we are happy to do that, we have also looked at ARR since this blog post seems to imply its required.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2013/07/19/reverse-proxy-for-exchange-server-2013-using-iis-arr-part-1.aspx but we dont want to add complexity over a problem until we understand why its needed.
Also of note: we dont have a cert for autodiscover.domain.net, nor is it publicly resolvable.
we dont have any 2010 servers, this is a clean 2013 envroment.
Thank you for taking the time to review this issue, I will provide any follow up info I can.

Hi,
Firstly, I’d like to explain, the host name autodiscover.domain.com should be in the certificate to ensure Autodiscover service can work externally.
And I’d like to confirm if the test users are used internally and how about directly accessing the following URL:
https://autodiscover.domain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml
Additionally, according to your description, you forward ports 25, 80, and 443 to server SIDHEX02A.
Then to understand more about the issue, I’d like to confirm if you set all SMTP,HTTP and HTTPS requests forward to the server SIDHEX02A and how to achieve that. Maybe this is the key point of the issue.
Thanks,

My mac's software is only available under my profile on MacBook pro. How can other family members get to the optional SW logged in under their own profile

Is there a way to share purchased SW under mote than one profile on the MacBook pro?
Thanks

If the software is in the HD>Applications folder it's available to everyone. If for some reason you put software into User>Applications folder it will be available only to that user.

We don't know what Apple plans on doing to change this (and it may not be just Apple but more likely the publishers, since Apple would, of course, do whatever it could to maximize sales/profits). Right now you can only read Apple books on mobile devices. Sure, buy them from Amazon if you want to read them on the computer. We don't work for Apple so we're pretty impartial on this kind of advice.
You might also see what your library can offer. My wife can browse the county library from her iPhone, borrow e-versions, and read books on it too. Free!

Service Desk - Expert Mode - Not all actions are available

Dear SAP colleagues,
I have just implemented the Service Desk in our SOLMAN system.
1. I choose Incident Management
2. I click on Queries
3. I click on a ticket (Transaction ID).
4. I edit the message
5. When I select Actions, I only have the 4 following options :
    - Send Message to SAP
    - Maintain SAP Logon Data
    - Display SAP Action Log
    - Update SAP Message
When I consult some demos, there are many differents options available in Actions menu, as, for example :
- Open System fro SAP
- Confirm Message to SAP
- E-Mail to Message Creator (Mail)
- Print Message
- Create Change Document
- Call Solution Manager Diagnostics.
Is it due to an missing authorizations (roles and profiles) ?
Thanks for your input.
Best regards
CP2009

Dear Rajeev,
First of all, thanks for your input.
I have choosen SIVA when I have activated BC Sets.
Should I activate also BC Sets for transaction type SLFN ?
1. I have started SPPFCADM and follow your recommandations.
2. I have choosen CRM_ORDER
3. I have then click on "Condition Configuration (Transportable Conditions)
4. There are many entries related to the Support and Service Desk
Example : Support Desk Message Action Profile
I have 5 actions defined -
Action 01 : Send Message to Processor
Action 02 : Create/Change Basis Message from CRM Procedure
Action 03 : Send Notification to SAP
Action 04 : Update Message from SAP
Action 05 : Confirm Message to SAP
I have activate BC Sets for transaction type SIVA, not for SLFN.
Best regards

I plugged my iphone 4s into my mac to sync it and it wouldnt allow me to do so and says I have no more gb available, but again I have nothing on my phone and have barely anything synced. More than 80% is filled with documents and data???

If Other (the yellow bar) is too big something is corrupted. The only solution (that I know of) is to restore from your most recent backup using iTunes (see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766).
