HA for Oracle Traffic Director Overview
HA for Oracle Traffic Director is a multi-master data service and can be configured with a
failover logical hostname or a scalable shared address. See Chapter 1, Planning for Oracle Solaris Cluster Data
Services, in Oracle Solaris Cluster Data Services Planning and
Administration Guide and the Oracle Solaris Cluster Concepts Guide
for general information about data
services, resource groups, resources, and other related topics.
Note -
You can use Oracle Solaris Cluster Manager to install and configure this data service. See the
Oracle Solaris Cluster Manager online help for details.
Note -
If you run multiple data services in your Oracle Solaris Cluster configuration, you can set up the data
services in any order, with the following exception. If HA for Oracle Traffic Director depends on
Oracle Solaris Cluster HA for DNS, you must set up DNS first. See
Oracle Solaris Cluster Data Service for DNS Guide for details. The
Oracle Solaris OS includes the DNS software. If the cluster is to obtain the DNS service from
another server, then configure the cluster to be a DNS client first.
Note -
After installation, do not manually start and stop Oracle Traffic Director except by using the
clresourcegroup command. See the
clresourcegroup
(1CL)
man page for details. After Oracle Traffic Director is started, the
Oracle Solaris Cluster software controls it.
