Dear all,
Does anyone can share his experience on how S1MQ installed on HA mode? We have recently purchased S1MQ and Vvertias Cluster Software. But I can't find anyone information on how integrate each other? Particular S1MQ how to share data among each other. Does share disk required? What particular directory (file persistent) should place into share disk? Your input is much appreciated.
Thanks for your help!
Alan.
Does Veritas provide an agent for MQ ?
If not, while there hasn't been any testing using VCS,
( although MQ does have an agent for SunCluster )
jeres what I belrive (from a quick scan of the VCS
documentation not personal experience)
would be required to integrate the two pieces of software
1. You would need to write a VCS agent that manages
the broker. For the endpoints,
monitor -> should check the state of the endpoint
by either telnet'ing to the broker's portmapper
or creating a connection to the broker using either
the C or JMS apis
other endpoints should be implemented to startup
and shutdown the broker
2. I'm assuming that when a a failure occurs, the
server may be started up on another piece of hardware
(although the IP address will remain the same)
If so, the persistent store needs to either be set up either
- using an SQL database
or
- point to a location located on a shared disk
The location of where the shared data is located
can be changed on the broker either:
- setting the environmental variable IMQ_VARHOME
-or
- starting the broker with the -varhome argument e.g.
imqbrokerd -varhome <sharedlocation>
NOTE: you can never have two brokers running at the same
time that share the same data (only one broker will start)
