Hi Folks,
We are having DB2 V10.1 Fixpack 1 and OS AIX 7.1
Now our company wants a failover design which could support across locations. So DBA team wants HADR, but OS team wants HACMP. Now our company wants to know can we club these two functionalities, where HA clustering (OS level) shared disk @ primary site & HADR @ two different locations.
Now my DBA team comes with one strong question, in case of service node failure on HA cluster, HA scripts will restart DB2 instance on the standby node and this will cause HADR connection to be terminated with secondary location which is at a fair longer distance.
So will it ever be a good idea to merge these two functionalities. Also please be noted, there is no idea to setup another HADR on the primary site, like cluster node 1 acting as HADR primary & cluster node 2 acting as HADR standby.
Valid information would be helpful guys. We need a simple design thats all.
