17.4.1 How to start the cold standby configuration

Organization of this subsection

(1) Procedure for starting the cold standby configuration

The following procedure explains how to start the cold standby configuration.

Procedure:

Confirm that HA Monitor is running in the active system and in the standby system.

For the confirmation method, see System Operation in the manual HA Monitor for Linux^(R) (x86).
Execute HA Monitor's monbegin command in the active system and the standby system.

Note

When HA Monitor's monbegin command is executed, the adbstart command is executed automatically in the active system as part of the monbegin command's processing.

The following table lists and describes the startup modes supported for the cold standby configuration.

Table 17‒4: Startup modes for the cold standby configuration
No.	Startup mode	Command to be executed	Explanation	Previous termination mode
1	Normal start	`monbegin`	This is the normal startup mode. In a normal start, database recovery processing does not take place.	The cold standby configuration terminated normally.
2	Restart	`monbegin`	If the previous termination mode is as described on the right, the server will automatically restart. During the restart, the HADB server in the active system uses the system log to perform database recovery processing.	The cold standby configuration terminated abnormally or forcibly.

Check the following items:

Execute HA Monitor's monshow command in the active system. Verify that the active system is executing (ONL) and the standby system is on standby (SBY).

For details about the monshow command, see Commands in the manual HA Monitor for Linux^(R) (x86).
Check the message log file of the HADB server in the active system. Confirm that the return code of the adbstart command is 0 or 4.
