Test DB failover senior with veritas

Hi experts,
My application live database using oracle 9i and clustered 3 servers using VERITAS as active/ passive. I want to test failover senior of my cluster. Can someone tell me the steps to proceed with this test without crashing my database?
regards,
krish

  • How to test node failover in Windows 2008 R2 Failover Cluster?

    Can anyone give me advice on how to properly test a node failure with a 2 mode Failover Cluster in Windows 2008 R2?

    To test the failover of a clustered service or application         
    In the Failover Cluster Manager snap-in, if the cluster that you want to configure is not displayed, in the console tree, right-click
    Failover Cluster Manager, click Manage a Cluster, and then select or specify the cluster that you want.
    If the console tree is collapsed, expand the tree under the cluster that you want to configure.
    Expand Services and Applications, and then click the service or application for which you want to test failover.
    Under Actions (on the right), click Move this service or application to another node.
    As the service or application moves, the status is displayed in the results pane (center pane).
    Optionally, repeat step 4 to move the service or application to an additional node or back to the original node.

  • How to test UCCX failover (no HA)

    Hello,
    I would like to test uccx failover with one UCCX and there is no HA configured.
    I configured in UCCX/Cisco Unified CM Configuration => there is 2 Callmanagers for AXL Service Providers and 2 Callmanagers for CTI Managers if I stopping both Callmanagers server AXL Service Providers and CTI Managers (First server in list).
    Can you tell me how I can test uccx failover (CAD, Calls, etc....)?
    There is one uccx which is installed (no HA).
    Thank you so much.

    Hi Gergely,
    Thanks a lot for your advices and if I understand this is the same test scenario if we  disconnected the first callmanager with activated AXL service Providers or the CTI manager or the test scenario is different for both services.
    -To test calls and to verify which are not disconnect
    -To verify CAD which should not disconnect
    -To verify reports work
    Thank you so much;

  • TS1381 My left arrow does not work on my macbook pro(model A1226).  I have reset nvram, performed a safe boot, pulled the cache to desktop, replaced .globalpreference.plist, test all other keys with keyboard view (all others work)  - HELP!!

    My left arrow does not work on my macbook pro(model A1226).
    I have reset nvram, performed a safe boot, pulled the cache to desktop, replaced .globalpreference.plist, & tested all other keys with "keyboard viewer" (all other keys work except for the arrow). 
    In addition, I have gone thru all the recommended checks with universal access and have booted from snow leopard dvd and the left arrow still does not work. 
    I have tried using the left arrow key in all of applications I use such as: excel, ms word, address book, calendar, iphoto, terminal, & highlighting an icon and using the arrows to move to another selected icon.
    Here is the kicker!  In addition, I purchased a logitech solar bluetooth keyboard and the arrows work fine with my ipad but do not work when paired with the macbook pro. All other keys work fine on the macbook pro using the bluetooth keyboard.
    I believe this says that the problem is not in my macbook pro keyboard. So where can it be?
    Can anyone think of any other rabbit holes I can search?
    thanks and regards

    I would also like to add that I've reverted the two cd drive and hard drive mods I did and the laptop is back to factory hardware and there is 0 corrosion or mold visible.

  • How do you start the hardware test on an imac with bluetooth keyboard

    How do you start the apple hardware test on an imac with a bluetooth keyboard as the instructions is to press the D key whilst restarting? And of course the imac cant see the keyboard whilst booting up as the bluetooth connection has yet to be established

    Have you tried following the directions for running it from the DVD? The instructions are on the Hardware Test link.If you are correct and it cannot due to the wireless keyboard not making a connection you will need to borrow a wired USB keyboard.

    You do have a very complex looking site and may need several tables in mysql to handle all that data. If you knew to phpmysql I would suggest taking a look at this tutorial it will help get you started in understanding how to $_GET info from a database and also how to $_POST data to a database. I am no expert just learning myself and I found this very helpful. This is the link http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/first_dynamic_site_pt1.html
    There are also many tutorials on Youtube to help build a CMS Content Management Site I would suggest the following: -

    http://www.youtube.com/user/flashbuilding
    And many more on my channel here

    CMS's are easier to maintain, add edit and delete content.
    I have also recently bought a Book by David Powers Training from the Source very helpful.
    Anyway hope you get it sorted.

  • Duplication with Veritas netbackup 4.5

    Alright. This is driving me crazy. How can you clone a database using Veritas? Right now we are using TSM and are switching to Veritas. With TSM, I can run the duplication from either the target or the auxiliary. With Veritas it states you must run it on the auxiliary. One problem with this is if your target does not have a password file. I can't bounce a production db just to create a temp password file.
    Another issue is with the username. I understand you have to restore logged in as the user who created the backup. We have 28 different servers with 28 different oracle users so to do this will be an administrative hastle. With TSM you can pass rman an options file with the username in there.
    If there's any documention other than in Veritas' manual under "Redirected Restore" I'd love to see it. Veritas' documentation doesn't use the RMAN duplicate command. It's almost as if they expect the exact same directory structure and user on the aux server.
    The error that is killing me is the:
    Failed to open for restore
    I know the backup is there on tape, I just can't get permissions to it and don't know how.
    Thanks

    Hi 152124
    Once you have the catalog created you can begin to play with RMAN. You could backup the whole database and backup it partially and so on. I recommend you to look for the manuals for it.
    Regarding Veritas NetBackup , I have not has experienced with that. I have always worked backing up the database directly to file systems for after move them to tapes.
    If you have any doubt during your learning you can ask here in this forum.

    Fix failing security tests on BlazeDS/trunk by using a remote object to invalidate the FlexSession at the end of each test method which should cause each test method to run with a new/clean session. It looks like some test methods were leaving some things in a bad state which was causing the next test that ran to fail. These may be legitimate bugs/issues so we should investigate further to see what sequence of events gets things into a bad state but for these tests we want all of the test methods to run in isolation.

    In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
    That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
    Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
    Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
    While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.

  • Have you tested external Air Superdrive with Powerbook via a USB hub?

    Have you tried plugging the Air Superdrive into their Powerbook via a powered USB hub? It seems the testing I've read with non-Air Macs has been just direct into the USB ports instead of via a powered hub. Can't a high-powered USB hub make up for the difference in power necessary to sufficiently drive the Superdrive? Does anyone know how the output of the Air's USB 2.0 port compares with that in a Powerbook G4?
    Thanks

    It has been reported outside these Apple forums that merely supplying more power to the MBA SuperDrive (in any of several ways) doesn't make it work with other machines. I've seen one website describing a hardware modification inside the SuperDrive's case (invalidating the warranty, of course) that was successful in enabling other machines to recognize and use it. It wouldn't be within the Terms of Use for these Discussions to say any more than that here; even saying that much may be going too far.

  • Storedge 3510 failover configuration with 1 host

    I people.
    I'm new to the storedge configuration.
    I have a Sun storedge 3510 - 2 controllers with 2 x host port fc and 1x drive port each.
    I want to do a simple configuration - connect 1 host to the storedge with failover.
    It's correct to connect the 2 controllers using the drive port - because i want failover?
    It's possible to use only 1 pci single FC adapter in the machine?
    I will connect the machine with the storedge usinge 1 fibre cable,
    I will use the host port FC1. And to do the failover I will connect the 2 controllers
    using the drive port fc3 e fc2. - THIS IS CORRECT?
    My problem is who to connect the cables and who to configure the storedge. I'm
    already connected to the COM Port.
    Another thing i have in the first controller amber light - this is a hardware problem?
    And wath is the best configuration to use with 3510 storedge, one host, and failover?
    Thank you. I need this help for now.. Please.

    Isn't it wonderful when people respond?
    I, too, am running into the same scenario. We have a single 3510FC that is connected to a single host through two controller cards. The drives are configured as a single logical drive under RAID-5. We want to have this configuration multi-pathed for redundancy, not throughput, even though controller cards NEVER fail. [sarcasm] We will be using Veritas VxVM DMP for redundancy.
    Unfortunately, I can only ever see the logical drive/LUN on one controller. The main connection is channel 0 of the primary controller. Whenever I try to configure it to simultaneously be on channel 5 of the secondary controller, the 3510 won't let me do it. I can't figure out how to get the LUN to be assigned to two host channels when one is on the primary controller and one is on the secondary controller.
    I find this to be absurd. Controllers fail. That's all that there is to it. Yet the design of the 3510 (and the 3310 as well) seem to fight like hell whenever you want to spread the logical drives across physical controllers.
    What's the solution to this one, guys?
