Configure MaxRep HA Page

Displays the details for configuring high availability (HA) environment for the Oracle MaxRep for SAN.

Primary Node

Identifies the IP address or host name of the primary (active) Replication Engine.

Domain Name of Primary Node

Identifies the fully qualified domain name of the primary node.

Secondary Node

Identifies the IP address or host name of the secondary (passive) Replication Engine.

Domain Name of Secondary Node

Identifies the fully qualified domain name of the secondary node.

Multicast Group IP Address

Identifies the unique IP address of the multicast group, which is used by the two Replication Engines in the HA cluster. Other Replication Engine cluster servers must use a different multicast IP address. Multicast IP addresses range is from 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255.

Ping Node
Identifies the node by which both Replication Engines in the HA cluster ping a common IP address. If the active node cannot ping this ping node, then the passive Replication Engine pings the node and initiates fail over.
Important: To reduce the likelihood of failover, choose a reliable system.
Cluster IP Address

Identifies the IP address of the HA cluster.

Appliance HA Cluster Name

Identifies the host name of the HA cluster.

Note: The customer network must be configured to allow ICMP network traffic for both MaxRep Replication Engines in the cluster to ping the Ping Node. The customer network must be configured to allow UDP port 694 network traffic for both Replication Engines in the cluster to communicate with each other using a multicast group IP address.
