Running sp_companion with do_advisory option  Creating an asymmetric companion configuration

Chapter 13: Configuring Adaptive Server for Failover on Veritas 3.5 and 1.3

Verifying the high availability agent

Because machines running the Solaris operating system can support different cluster software, sp_companion includes the show_cluster option to query the high availability agent currently running and the set_cluster option to set the high availability agent.

If you are running the Veritas Cluster Server subsystem, you must specify the cluster with sp_companion. Adaptive Server assumes it is running the cluster software for your operating system unless you specify otherwise.

The syntax is:

sp_companion companion_server_name, [show_cluster]
sp_companion companion_server_name, [set_cluster ["SC-2.2" | "SC-3.0" | "VCS-Sybase" | "VCS-HAase"]]

To change the Adaptive Server to use the HAase agent for the Veritas Cluster:

sp_companion MONEY1, set_cluster, "VCS-HAase"

The current cluster is set to VCS-HAase

NoteDo not change to another high availability agent type when Adaptive Server is configured for normal companion mode on your VCS system
