High Availability for EBS Database 11gR2

Hello Gurus,
We have the below environment:
Oracle Applications - 12.1.3
Oracle Database - 11.2.0.3
OS - Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.7
I would like to know how to achieve high availability for the database. We don't want to go with RAC at this stage. What are the other alternatives to achieve high availability at the database side.
Thanks in advance!
-Khan

I have come across the note id
How To Install An Oracle Database In An Active/Passive Configuration Without RAC? [ID 734361.1]
Can you please confirm if this can be used to configure Database for HA?
Also please confirm if I need to get the two servers configured with any cluster software at Linux level?

Solaris 10 patches for Oracle Database 11gR2

Hi,
I downloaded Oracle Solaris 10 s/w from e-Delivery and got it installed. For Oracle Database 11gR2 I also need the followging patches:
120754-06: SunOS 5.10_x86 libmtsk
119961-05: SunOS 5.10_x86: Assembler
119964-14: SunOS 5.10_x86 Shared library patch for C++_x86
Though we have access to MyOracleSupport we can only download s/w patches using our support contract with Oracle and not OS patches.
Is there any other way I can get these patches.
Rgds,
Thiru.

Thiru,
You won't find the patches in the patches/ directory on the DVD or the ISO image. Oracle integrates the patches directly into the packages, so there is no need to provide or install them separately.
All patches have a patch number (e.g. 120754) and a revision (e.g. 06). A newer revision of a patch always contains all fixes of the previous revisions. So try to run "showrev -p | grep 120754" instead, and you'll see that patch 120754-08 is pre-installed. As revision 08 is newer/higher than 06, the patch requirement is satisfied.
Hope that helps,
mp.

High availability for Lync 2013 persistent chat server and office web app server

I have 1500 users, need HA in primary data center and DR also. looking for HA and DR solution for persistent chat server and office web app server.
is below correct?
1. 2 persistent chat server in a pool of primary data center and 1 in DR. can this be reduced or any changes?
2. 2 Office web app server in a pool of primary data center and 1 in DR. can this be reduced or any changes?
also do i need HLB for both roles?

1) In Lync Server 2013, there are improvements in both high availability and disaster recovery:
High availability improvements: SQL Server mirroring is used to provide high availability for the Persistent Chat Server content database and Persistent Chat compliance database within a data center (in-site).
Disaster recovery improvements: Persistent Chat Server supports a stretched pool architecture that enables a single Persistent Chat Server pool to be stretched across two sites (that is, a single logical pool in the topology, with servers in the pool physically
located across two sites). SQL Server Log Shipping is used for cross-site disaster recovery.
For more information about high availability and disaster recovery, see
Configuring Persistent Chat Server for High Availability and Disaster Recovery in the Deployment documentation.
2) for HA & DR, you can 2 Office web app server in a pool of primary data center and 1 in DR. and You will need HLB for office web app servers

Choosing VM as high availability for BizTalk's SQL Server databases

Hi,
I'm lloking to choose the architecture of our BizTalk 2013 solution.
The application server will be build on virtual machines, but I still have interrogation about the SQL Server.
Is a SQL Server on a VM supported for BizTalk 2013 ?
Because in case of physical failure, the VM moved to another server can we considered the VM as a solution of High-Availability ?
thanks for your reply.

When the SQL VM fails over what attributes of the server will change? If everything including the server name, the mapped SAN locations (for Databases) and/or the versions of SQL will remain the same then it will behave like a temporary network outage between
the Front-end and the SQL.
If however, the failed over VM has a different set of mapped location for DB then you would need to establish a BizTalk Log Shipping between SQL VM 1 and SQL VM 2. In this scenario, the recovery will require time and cannot be automatic.
A word of caution though. If you have SLA's pertaining to transactions/messages per second with the customer then you might want to evaluate having dedicated boxes of SQL. The SQL Licensing is PER CORE and in a VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENT all the
CORES have to be licensed since the Virtualization does not permit you to BIND the VM to a specific set of CORES. The same would apply for your BizTalk Servers. This just might work out costlier as opposed to the dedicated server environment.
Regards.

11.1.2 High Availability for HSS LCM

Hello All,
Has anyone out there successfully exported an LCM artifact (Native Users) through Shared Services console to the OS file system (<oracle_home>\user_projects\epmsystem1\import_export) when Shared Services is High Available through a load balancer?
My current configuration is two load balanced Shared Services servers using the same HSS repository. Everything works perfectly everywhere except when I try to export anything through LCM from the HSS web console. I have shared out the import_export folder on server 1. And I have edited the oracle_home>\user_projects\epmsystem1\config\FoundationServices1\migration.properties file on the second server to point to the share on the first server. Here is a cut and paste of the migration.properties file from server2.
grouping.size=100
grouping.size_unknown_artifact_count=10000
grouping.group_by_type=Y
report.enabled=Y
report.folder_path=<epm_oracle_instance>/diagnostics/logs/migration/reports
fileSystem.friendlyNames=false
msr.queue.size=200
msr.queue.waittime=60
group.count=10000
double-encoding=true
export.group.count = 30
import.group.count = 10000
filesystem.artifact.path=\\server1\import_export
I perform an export of just the native users to the file system, the export fails stating and I find errors in the log stating the following.

I go and look for the path that it is searching for "/server1/import_export/msr/PKG_34.xml" and find that this file does exist, it was infact created by the export process so I know that it is able to find the correct location, but it then says that it can't find it after the fact. I have tried creating mapped drives and editing the migration.properties file to reference the mapped drive but it gives me the same errors but with the new path. I also tried the below article that I found in support with no result. Please advise, thank you.

it is not possible to implement a kind of HA between two different appliances 3315 and 3395.
A node in HA can have the 3 persona.
Suppose Node A (Admin(primary), monitoring(Primary) and PSN).
Node B(Admin(Secondary), Monitoring(Secondary) and PSN).
If the Node A is unavailable, you will have to promote manually the Admin role to Primary.
Although the best way is to have
Node A Admin(Primary), Monitoring(Secondary) and PSN
Node B Admin(Secondary), Monitoring (Primary) and PSN.

High Availability for the news versions

Hi,
Somebody knows, which is the HA strategy for a System (CRM 7.0) with one server for Abap and other server for Java?
May be:
Two servers:
NodeA: Abap Database and Abap Central Instance
NodeB: Java Database and Java Central Instance
OR
NodeA: Abap Database and Java Database
NodeB: Abap Central Instance and Java Central Instance
Four servers:
NodeA: Abap Database
NodeB: Abap Central Instance

High availability for Web front END server

Dear All
I am unable to understand the high availability model for Web front end server
I am currently working on MOSS 2007/IIS 7 but I think for all versions it will remain the same
I am now running single WFE server and my installation mode allow for adding extra servers to the Farm
now when I add Extra server what will happen next ? should I add extra web application and site collections ? will load balancing include lists, library items and workflows
how this stuff will be stored on one database
it's too vague to me so extra explanation will be appreciated
Regards

To get a fault tolerant environment you need to do two things.
1) Add a second server that is running the the Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Web Service. That's the service that responds to calls for the web site making the server a WFE.
2) Implement some form of load balancing to distribute HTTP requests for SharePoint web sites to the two servers. This can be done with something as simple as Windows Network Load Balancing or with dedicated hardware like an F5 Load balancer.
Once you've added a load balancer and a second server you don't need to do anything else.

SQL 2012 AlwaysON High Availability for SharePoint 2013

Our Company have 2 Webfront Servers for Sharepoint 2013 and one Database SQL 2012 Server.
We got one more Server & we don't have Storage so need to configure Always On.
There are Some Confusions:
1- Database Server is in production, so how much down time required to Achieve the AlwaysOn?
2- What are the Changes need to be done on Production Server?
3- What are the Steps to be followed While Configuring new Database Server?
Regards,

Hi Genius1985,
According to your description, you want to configure a SQL Server 2012 AlwaysOn Availability Group for your database, right?
Question 1: Database Server is in production, so how much down time required to achieve the AlwaysOn?
There is no a certain downtime for AlwaysOn, it depends on the configuration of our AlwaysOn Availability Group, normally it can be several seconds or minutes. In order to understand why there is downtime for SQL Server with Microsoft Clustering, please refer
to the following article:
http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/1882/understanding-why-there-is-still-downtime-for-sql-server-with-microsoft-clustering/
Question 2 and 3: What are the Changes need to be done on Production Server? What are the Steps to be followed While Configuring new Database Server?
Since AlwaysOn Availability Groups require a Windows Server Failover Cluster, we first need to add the Windows Failover Cluster Feature to all the machines running the SQL Server instances that we will configure as replicas.
Once the Windows Server Failover Cluster has been created, we need to proceed with enabling the AlwaysOn Availability Groups feature in SQL Server 2012. This needs to be done on all of the SQL Server instances that we will configure as replicas in our
Availability Group.
For more details about Step-By-Step: Creating a SQL Server 2012 AlwaysOn Availability Group, please refer to the following article:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/canitpro/archive/2013/08/20/step-by-step-creating-a-sql-server-2012-alwayson-availability-group.aspx

URL to be used in high availability for Directory Server

Hi All,
I have an environment configured for high availability. I have two OVD and OID servers each in this environment, configured in high availability. What should be the value in the Server URL field of the Directory Server IT Resource in the OIM for this environment? In the normal environment, I had it as "ldap://ovdhost01:6501" and it was working fine. But since there are two servers here, I am not sure what URL to use in place of this. The entry for the two ovd hosts in the OHS is "idstore.com" which is configured on 6501 port. But I tried using the following URLs and none of them worked:
1. idstore.com
2. ldap://idstore.com
3. ldap://idstore.com:6501
4. ldap://ovdhost01:6501,ldap://ovdhost01:6501
Can someone help me know the correct URL to be used in this case?
Thanks,
$id

Not sure about OVD or OID but for SOA and OIM:
SOA:
XMLConfig -> XMLConfig.SOAConfig -> SOAConfig
Rmiurl -> t3://soahost1:soaport1,soahost2:soaport2
Soapurl -> Load balancer or web server url (without the /workflow context)
OIM:
XMLConfig -> XMLConfig.DiscoveryConfig -> Discovery
OimFrontEndUrl -> Load balance or web server url (without the /oim context)
And ofcourse on your LB or WebServer, you need to configure these:
SOA: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/core.1111/e10106/ha_soa.htm#CHDDJEGD
