The SBR infrastructure provides a High Availability (HA) database solution for native and custom applications. Two HA policies are used for the SBR databases and various HA configurations are supported (such as Active, Active/Standby, Active/Spare, Active/Standby/Spare, and Active/Standby/Spare/Spare). Binding SBR Databases are associated with one HA policy, while Session and Universal SBR Databases are associated with a different policy. Universal SBR Databases can coexist on the same SBR server groups with Session SBR Databases. However, Universal SBR Databases cannot coexist on the same server groups with Binding SBR Databases.
