Solution Demonstrations at Linux World
The high availability cluster solution for mySAP is comprised of mySAP Business Suite, Oracle 8i, SteelEye LifeKeeper for Linux and Red Hat Enterprise, running in active/active mode on HP ProLiant BL40p and next-generation BL20p blade servers, accessing an HP StorageWorks (Modular SAN Array) msa1000 Fibre Channel shared storage system.
The high availability cluster solution for Lotus Domino is composed of four nodes, each comprising a Lotus Domino server using the Domino Partition server facility, SteelEye LifeKeeper for Linux and Red Hat 7.2 running in active/active mode on HP ProLiant BL20p blade servers, accessing an HP StorageWorks (Modular SAN Array) msa1000 Fibre Channel shared storage system.
Both demonstrations illustrate how LifeKeeper simplifies the process of creating a cluster to ensure continuous operation and protection of mySAP Business Suite and Lotus Domino on Linux, and how LifeKeeper provides comprehensive, automated monitoring and failover of all application, database and system infrastructure components, either at times of failure or during systems maintenance.
