SAM-QFS can be configured for high availability by using Oracle Solaris Cluster software. Oracle Solaris Cluster software provides high availability by enabling application failover. The primary node is periodically monitored and the cluster software automatically relocates the SAM-QFS archiving functions from a failed primary node to a designated secondary node. By enabling another node in a cluster to automatically host the archiving workload when the primary node fails, Oracle Solaris Cluster software can significantly reduce downtime and increase productivity.
High availability SAM-QFS (HA-SAM) depends on the Sun QFS Sun Cluster agent, so this configuration must be installed with a shared Sun QFS file system that is mounted and managed by the Sun QFS Sun Cluster agent.
For more information, see Chapter 1, Using SAM-QFS With Oracle Solaris Cluster, in Using Sun QFS and Sun Storage Archive Manager with Oracle Solaris Cluster.
