27.2 System configuration

This section provides examples of system configurations for using the facility for monitoring MIB performance information.

Organization of this section
(1) HiRDB single server configuration
(2) HiRDB parallel server configuration
(3) Multi-HiRDB
(4) Using a system switchover facility

(1) HiRDB single server configuration

The following figure shows a system configuration for applying the facility for monitoring MIB performance information to a HiRDB single server configuration.

Figure 27-2 System configuration for a HiRDB single server configuration

[Figure]

Explanation
JP1/ESA is installed in the server machine where the monitored HiRDB is located.

(2) HiRDB parallel server configuration

The following figure shows a system configuration for applying the facility for monitoring MIB performance information to a HiRDB parallel server configuration.

Figure 27-3 System configuration for a HiRDB parallel server configuration

[Figure]

Explanation
JP1/ESA is installed in the server machine where the system manager is defined, because that is the server machine where performance information is collected; there is no need to install JP1/ESA in other server machines.
MIB commands are executed at the server machine where the system manager is defined.

(3) Multi-HiRDB

The following figure shows a system configuration for applying the facility for monitoring MIB performance information to a multi-HiRDB configuration of HiRDB single server configurations.

Figure 27-4 System configuration for a multi-HiRDB configuration of HiRDB single server configurations

[Figure]

Explanation
In the case of a multi-HiRDB configuration, a single MIB command can be used to monitor multiple HiRDBs. You must specify in the MIB environment definition file all the HiRDBs that are to be monitored. Note that there is no requirement that you monitor all the HiRDBs; it is possible to monitor only selected HiRDBs.

(4) Using a system switchover facility

The following figure shows a system configuration for applying the facility for monitoring MIB performance information to a 1-to-1 switchover configuration.

Figure 27-5 System configuration for a 1-to-1 switchover configuration

[Figure]

Explanation
If you are using a system switchover facility, you must also set up the server machine in the standby system for performance monitoring. That way, if system switchover should occur, monitoring will be continued for the server machine at the switching destination. However, as the following figure shows, the collected performance information is not continuous. After switchover, it will appear as though a different HiRDB were being monitored.
