SC3.2 Quorum Server in S10 container?

Hi,
Is it possible to have a single server act as a quorum device for several (test / development) clusters? If it's not supported by the software, perhaps by installing multiple copies of the software within S10 zones?
TIA. Tom

Hi Tom,
It is supported and documented in http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-5360
you just have to add separate lines in /etc/scqsd/scqsd.conf and differentiate by instance name and port.
You only have to be aware that a single quorum server is s single point of failure and thatt's it.
Cheers

  • Error trying to install patch 8.1.7..2 in a server that also contains a 91 client

    Hello.
    I am trying to install a patch in a 8.1.7 server, that also contains a 9i client, the universal installer fails with a "Error. Not need to install products from patch 8.1.7.2.5".
    When I see the installes software list, I can see the 9i client software that I installed after the 8.1.7 server.
    Thanks in advance.

    I did a search prior to post this issue and I knew about patch 8.1.7.1.1
    But on the other hand I try to follow the latest documentation on the release I am working.
    So, it means patch 8.1.7.2.2 does not exist and it is a mistake in P309msgs.pdf , correct?
    I am starting to have doubts about the credibility of Oracle documentation....

  • Quorum Server Redundancy Question

    Hi All,
    I'm just investigating my options for a new cluster configuration and was trying to find out about multiple quorum servers hosts. All the examples I have come across in the documentation have 1 physical host acting as a quorum server for an n+1 node cluster. I'm ssuming that there will be quorum issues in the event the physical host, hosting the quorum server, is down and the cluster nodes performed a reconfiguration/switch when the quorum server was unavailable.
    Is it possible to have 2 physical hosts, with quorum servers defined on each, that can then be confidured in to the cluster. Effectivly pointing at two different quorum servers for votes?

    Correct, the QS is only used if the cluster changes state, i.e. nodes leave or join. However, having more than 1 QS for a single cluster does not help. You simply lower your overall availability because there are more failure scenarios where one of these is down, leading to insufficient votes for the remaining cluster node to obtain.
    Active monitoring and prompt repair of the QS (or QD) is the right approach.

  • Lync 2013 FE quorum server

    Hi,
    1. how i can check which is the perimary quorum server in the FE pool lync 2013 ?
    2. how i can change the quorum server before restart the FE server ?
    Thanks,

    1. Get-CsPoolFabricState will get you the node order. 2. You can't. Well not that I've been able to work out. The only option is to reset the fabric, which you can do of you run into issues with services not starting as a result of fabric issues.

  • Clq status shows quorum server offline even though the clq service is runni

    Hi,
    In a 2 Node + 1 QS sun cluster 3.2 cluster, clq status is showing quorum sever offline even though the clq process is running on the quorum server. to make the quorum server online, i have to either remove and add the quorum server from cluster, or incase if there is a failure on any one of the node's both th nodes will reboot and once both joined to the cluster, I can see clq status showing quorum server online!!!
    Why is the quorum server going offline automatically?
    Any help would be highly appreciated
    Many thanks in advance
    Ushas Symon

    Hi,
    I asssume you mean the scqsd process is running on the QS, right?
    A QS is shown as offline, it the monitor could not reach it when it last tried. This is usually due to a networking problem.
    If you issue a clq status, the monitor checks again and if it can reach the QS will change its status back to online.
    If this does not happen, check your logs, what kind of error message showed up.
    Does clqs show on the QS show the correct information?
    It is obvious, that if a node dies and the QS has been offline prior to the node death, that the other node will die as well due to lack of quorum, i.e. it has less votes than needed. You seem to have a basic networking problem or something is really wrong with your QS.

  • Quorum Server Bug?

    I have a 2 node cluster using a quorum server running on a third server. I turned off one node this morning, and then used svcadm to disable the quorum server on the third server. THis was in an attempt to panic the remaining node for testing purposes.
    It's been about 20 minutes now, and the remaining node has not panicked from losing quorum. clq status and scstat -q show essentially the same things, though in diffent formats. There are 2 votes needed, 2 present, and 3 possible. Under the details, the first node has 0 votes present, the up node has 1, and the disabled quorum server has 0.

    To add what Tim has described. The improved quorum monitoring feature will detect that you shut down the quorum server, but will not panic the remaining node. Why should it? It knows it is the only node left and can safely continue to run. When the second node failed it had enough votes to reconfigure!

  • Lost quorum using quorum server

    I have a two node cluster with a third node being used as a quorum server. The quorum server is on a different VLAN than the cluster nodes.
    If I shut down or reboot node 1, node 2 dies. I can reboot node 2 without any impact on node 1, it works as it's supposed to. In this scenario the nodes seem to be unable to talk to the quorum server so the cluster thinks its lost quorum and it dies. After it is back up the quorum server is corrupt and shown as offline so the only way to restore it is to remove it from the cluster and readd it.
    Node 2 never seems to be able to see the quorum server, it always shows it as offline, even when I add it from node 2. Node 3 is not a cluster configured server, it only has the quorum server installed on it to support the cluster of node 1 & 2. Node 3 is on another vlan, therefore there is a router in the path.
    Does the quorum server have to be on the same VLAN so that there's no router in the loop?
    Does anybody have any ideas on what could be wrong here? Does the quorum server really work or do I have to add a third server to the cluster just to have a stable cluster?
    --- Further info, the clqs show command on node 3 shows disabled false, and keys for node 1, but nothing for node 2 and node 2 can't open the qs.
    Thanks,

    I may have answered my own question by applying patch 127406-04. With this patch applied both cluster nodes are now seeing the quorum server. The patch among other things solves an issue with simultaneous opens failing. I will have to do some failure testing to confirm this.
    Update: failure testing complete, this patch solved the issue.

  • Web Server and Web container

    Is tomcat a web server or web container? I got information like this:
    web server: Is responsible for receiving request from
    client and sending responses to client.
    web container: w.c contains Servlet engine and jsp engine,
    responsible for executing servlets(JSP) life cycle.
    once webserver receivs the request it sends the control to
    webcontainer,after execution of servlet(jsp) response will
    be sent to web server ,web server will send the response to
    client.
    I am now totally confused. Your reply will be much helpful

    Sun's Web Server (which this forum is about - download it here: http://www.sun.com/webserver) is a web server with an embedded web container. So, it is both. That's one of the reasons why it scales so well for Java Servlet content. Give it a try...

  • Clq status shows quorum server offline eventhough it is online

    Hi,
    I am facing a problem in my cluster that when I bring all the three nodes in a cluster (2 app-nodes and one quorum server) at almost the same time, the clq status on any of the cluster nodes is showing quorum server as offline. when I do the clqs show on the quorum server, i ge the below output.

    Hi, this is solaris cluster 3.2u1..
    I got the quorum server online by
    # clq status
    --- Quorum Votes by Device ---
    Device Name Present Possible Status
    rac1 1 1 Offline
    # clq add -t quorum_server -p qshost=xxxxxxxxxx -p port 9001 rac2
    # clq status
    --- Quorum Votes by Device ---
    Device Name Present Possible Status
    rac1 1 1 Online
    rac2 1 1 Online
    By just adding one another QS both the QS status came online !!!!!!!!!!!!
    no IDEA, what is happening...
    anyways I have deleted the second QS by #clq remove rac2 and #clq reset
    now it is fine..
    Thanking you all

  • Quorum Server Question

    Hi All,
    If using two or more clusters, can cluster nodes be quorum servers for
    for other clusters?
    /Regards
    Ulf

    Yes, if is feasible. There have been discussions internally about the possibility of making an HA quorum server. Personally, I'm not sure of the value of doing this as you need to guard against the possibility of correlated failured that cause everything to fail in a cascading manner.

  • Converting SQL Server text field containing XML string to XI XML via JDBC

    Hello
    My client has a SQL Server database containing a field of type Text which contains an XML string e.g.
    <DispatchJob> <DispatchDateTime>2003-09-29T13:29:15</DispatchDateTime> <AssignedFSE>F118</AssignedFSE> <DispatchJobPurchase> <DealerID>14C5</DealerID> <DateOfPurchase>1997-10-01T00:00:00</DateOfPurchase> </DispatchJob>
    I am using JDBC to access this but could someone please recommend the best and easiest solution for converting this string to XI XML for subsequent mapping to BAPI or IDOC or ABAP Proxy and transmission to SAP. There are other fields as well in the database table so thoughts at the moment are to use a normal graphical message mapping followed by an XSL mapping. Will an XSL mapping be able to do this and if so is that the best solution?
    Also I need to do the reverse of this and take fields coming from SAP via BAPI,IDOC etc. and convert them to a single database table field as an XML string also via the JDBC adapter. What is the best way to do this. Could it be done simply with functions in the graphical mapping e.g. concatenate?
    Thank you in advance.
    Trevor

    Hi Michal
    Thanks for the prompt reply.
    I was anticipating XSLT for reading from the SQL Server database and converting the XML string.
    But how would you convert the individual fields from SAP into a single field as an XML string for storing in the SQL Server database? What approach would you use?
    Regards

  • [beginner] Relationship between app server and JBI container

    Hello,
    I downloaded the Sun app server as well as the JBI SDK and I would like to understand how they relate to each other. Is the JBI SDK a plug-in in the app server? Does it run on top of it? What part of J2ee are used by JBI?(servlets, ejbs, JCA???).
    Thanks in advance,
    Julien.
    PS
    Any answer is welcome. I am a complete beginner in JBI and I am looking for some primer that will help me get started with the spec...

    JBI is a specification; its up to the implementations to decide how they interact with different application servers. e.g. Sun's RI may work in Sun's app server and, say, JBoss. ServiceMix is already integrated into Apache Geronimo but has deployers for any Servlet engine and JBoss.
    Typically a JBI container will use servlets for HTTP bindings and can use EJBs if required. JCA integration is an option too - e.g. ServiceMix can either integrate with the application servers JCA engine or can use its own embedded JCA engine - Jencks (http://jencks.org).

  • Difference between web server and servlet container

    I can't able to figure out the techincal difference between web server(such as java web server) and servlet containers(such as jakarta-tomcat).If you please let me know then I will be very thankful to you.

    The web server serves html pages to browsers that request pages. It can also send images, javascript, flash content, and a few other things. When a request comes into the web server for a servlet or jsp, the web server calls on the Servlet container to do THOSE jobs.
    The Servlet container is the execution environment for a jsp or servlet (they are both servlets) to run Java code on the server and do logic.
    So you see, the web server spits out static content, where either no logic is involved, or the client's web browser does the logic. The Servlet container is used for applications that execute code, perform logic, connect to databases, etc.
    So they work together, but are completely separate logically.
