Planning the Installation and Configuration of Oracle Solaris Cluster HA for Sun Java System Application Server EE (HADB)

This section contains the information that you need to plan your installation and configuration of Oracle Solaris Cluster HA for Sun Java System Application Server EE (HADB).

Configuration Restrictions and Requirements

Store static files and data on the local file system of each cluster node. The Sun Java System Application Server EE (HADB) software is installed when you install the Sun Java System Application Server Enterprise Edition software. See Oracle Solaris Cluster Data Service for Sun Java System Application Server Guide documentation for instructions. When the database is created, the configuration and data files are created by default on the local file system of each cluster node. For details, see the Sun Java System Application Server documentation.

If you are using Solaris 5.8, you must perform the following procedure.

1. Edit the file /etc/init.d/ma-initd.

2. Add the following entry at the beginning of the file.

   _JAVA_OPTIONS="-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true" 
   export _JAVA_OPTIONS

3. Save the file.

Configuration Planning Considerations

For information to help you plan the installation and configuration of Oracle Solaris Cluster HA for Sun Java System Application Server EE (HADB), see Considerations for Installing and Configuring a Data Service in Oracle Solaris Cluster Data Services Planning and Administration Guide. See also the worksheets in Appendix C, Data Service Configuration Worksheets and Examples, in Oracle Solaris Cluster Data Services Planning and Administration Guide.

If you choose to use your HADB data service with another highly available application, resource dependencies might exist. See Appendix A, Standard Properties, in Oracle Solaris Cluster Data Services Planning and Administration Guide for a description of the Resource_dependencies property.
