Failing Over to a Standby Disaster Recovery Environment

Use a standby disaster recovery environment to get SAP Mobile Platform up and running quickly following a disaster.

Prerequisites
Prepare a standby environment. See Setting Up a Standby Environment.
Task
When the production environment is completely lost, bring the disaster recovery environment online.
  1. Start the disaster recovery data-tier node (or the MS cluster).
  2. Run change-datatier.bat to change the data-tier node name on all disaster recovery server nodes.
  3. Using dbisqlc, connect to the cluster database.
    • Update installation_info, set "host_name"='<new_hostname>' where "host_name"='<old_hostname>'
    • Update installation_history, set "host_name"='<new_hostname>' where "host_name"='<old_hostname>'
  4. Start one disaster recovery server node, and ensure it works properly.
  5. Start all other disaster recovery server nodes.

    You can use this environment as the new production environment. Once the original production environment is rebuilt or restored, you can then use it as the new disaster recovery environment.
