Use a command in the cluster software (monbegin command in the case of HA monitor) to start HiRDB on the running system and standby system. If HiRDB cannot be started for either of the following reasons, correct the problem and then use the pdstart (pdstart -q for a HiRDB/Parallel Server) command to start HiRDB:
- An error occurred that requires setup to be performed again with pdsetup.
- Restart failed when no user command was specified during a restart attempt.
- Notes
- Execute the pdstart -r command after HiRDB on the running system and standby system terminates. When the pdstart -r command is used to start HiRDB, HiRDB is not subject to system switchover. After a process such as database recovery processing terminates, terminate HiRDB, then start it on the running system and standby system.
- For a HiRDB/Parallel Server, units not subject to system switchover (units specified by pd_ha_unit=nouse) cannot be started by a cluster software command. In such a case, log on directly to the server machine on the applicable unit and execute the pdstart -q command.
- Note on using MC/ServiceGuard
- When HiRDB termination terminates abnormally, the status of the MC/ServiceGuard package is up or running. In such a case, use the pdstart command to separately restart HiRDB.
- Procedure for starting HiRDB when using ClusterPerfect
- To start HiRDB when using ClusterPerfect:
- Check to see if the dncware_daemon on the primary system and secondary system is set to start automatically. You must have root privileges to perform this check.
# chkconfig -list
dncware_daemon 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off
- If the dncware_daemon is off, make the specification to turn it on.
# chkconfig dncware_daemon on
dncware_daemon 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
- Restart the server machines for the primary system and the secondary system.
- Activate the DNCWARE operation support system for MMC.
- Activate the ClusterPerfect system information window. This window displays the status of the primary system and secondary system.
- Activate Resource 1 and Resource 2. Start the server (HiRDB) from this window.
- For details about activation and the window status, see the ClusterPerfect manual.
