In Response To: HDR Issue / ER Differences (Phil Torkington)

Thanks for all the advice

The fact that the two servers are totally independent is very appealing
but also take note of the extra set-up / maintenance over HDR.

We will test ER in the new year and get a feel for how much more setting
up/maintenance is needed.

Subject: Re: HDR Issue / ER Differences [6113]

With ER the servers are totally independent. However ER is a bit more
tricky to set up.
I think that we've improved the setup issues significantly with v10,
especially with the additional functionality which was activated in
v10UC4. This would allow you, for instance, to set up replication via
templates with basically only two commands.

However some things to think about. ER does not currently automatically
create replication on objects which do not yet exist. Also, ER does not
currently support the automatic creation of secondary objects such as
triggers or stored procedures.

HDR Issue / ER Differences [6113]

Hi All,

We are running HDR between two informix 9.4FC6 instances on solaris
9....we have just experienced a chronic hardware failure on our
secondary (Sun still trying to find out why - no syslog errors or
diagnostics yet) which caused a long checkpoint followed by a rollback
error (see below) which managed to corrupt two data chunks on our
primary server. IBM tech support dialed in and managed to bring the
chunks online which enabled us to recover the data affected. Tech
Support believe this to be a bug but are still looking into the
diagnostic information.

The real reason for bringing this to the group's attention is to try to
understand if we had been running ER rather than HDR would there be less
chance of suffering a failure on our primary server ? Are there
architectural differences between the two replication methods which
would make the primary server less reliant on whats happening on the
secondary server ?

Thanks in advance

Phil Torkington
