Configuring Your Highly Available Database

SAP supports various databases. See the appropriate Sun Cluster data services book for details on how to configure the resource type, resource group, and resource for your highly available database. For example, see the following documentation for more information:

• If you plan to use SAP DB with SAP, see Sun Cluster Data Service for SAP DB Guide for Solaris OS.

• If you plan to use Oracle with SAP, see Sun Cluster Data Service for Oracle Guide for Solaris OS.

Additionally, see the appropriate Sun Cluster data services book and the appropriate chapter of your database installation book for details on other resource types to configure with your database. The Sun Cluster data services books include details on how to configure other resource types for databases. For example, if you plan to use the SAP DB database or the Oracle database, set up the SUNW.HAStoragePlus resource type. For more information, see the following sections:

• If you plan to use the SAP DB database, see Synchronizing the Startups Between Resource Groups and Disk Device Groups in Sun Cluster Data Services Planning and Administration Guide for Solaris OS and Configuring the HAStoragePlus Resource Type to Work With Sun Cluster HA for SAP DB in Sun Cluster Data Service for SAP DB Guide for Solaris OS.

• If you plan to use the Oracle database, see Synchronizing the Startups Between Resource Groups and Disk Device Groups in Sun Cluster Data Services Planning and Administration Guide for Solaris OS.
