RE: High Availability

["Westdorp, Tom" <Tom.Westdorp@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We're using OMS & ODS from Vision, we just did a role swap (our first) last
month.  We have dual 825's with 5-ways activated on the front and 3-ways
activated on the back.  All's in sync and staying that way, with minimal
maintenance.  

We had great vendor support from Vision!

Whichever solution you select, bear in mind HA is an ongoing process.  You
have to keep an eye on it, you can't just say you achieved it and move on.

Subject: High Availability


Has anybody done an implementation of one of the High Availability products
recently?  Most of the threads in the archives are fairly old and I was
hoping for some more recent impressions.

We are considering replicating some of our production boxes and have just
started looking at what is available.  The OMS/ODS, DataMirror and Mimix
seem to have the highest profile but I have also seen offerings like *noMAX
and Echo2.

I am interested in what convinced people to implement one of the products
over the others, pros/cons of the products, or horror/success stories.

TIA
