RE: Configure Db2/udb for HACMP

 

  

Im not sure how it works in HACMP, I operate in a sun cluster active/passive
environment and the instances use shares storage and as part of a failover
the disks are 're-homed' to the failover node. When the instance comes
online on the failvoer node it is using all the same files as it was on the
active node, therefore same config.

I would assume (always dangerous) that HACMP uses some similar methodology,
If not could you simply issue the same 'update db cfg' commands on the
passive node so that they are in place should the instance ever be started
on that node?

Another question for you again regarding HACMP. If I make configuration
parameter changes to the instance and database while it's running on node 1,
what do I need to do to ensure those changes are carried over to node 2 when
the database is activated over there? I guess this questions really boils
down to where are the config parameters stored? In the database, or in a a
file somewhere that I should ensure is synchronized periodically between the
nodes.

I have looked through the Information Center for this stuff but didn't turn
up anything other than "dont modify these files manually".
