Runn ing AIX 5.2 qdx 5.3 and have hacmp installed.

Have recently tested HA failover to our test box and had alot of issues owing to recovery database corruption which prevented the processes from starting on the failover box. QDX has not delivered us an answer as to how to get around recovery database corruptino problems. We had to reinit the recovery database in order to get some of the processes back up.

ALso..many of the downstream connections (TCP/IP) neede rebooted owing to the abrupt disconnect they experienced.

all in all..the processes attempt to come up within 10 minutes…some did…but the overall mess took us about 2-3 hours to get back to semi-normal state and we lost data

So yeah..we had an environment to work with

but no…is aint clean by any stretch of the imagination

The setup HACMP was setup by Quovadx.

Little to no documentation delivered other than the config files themselves.
