The Quick-EDD/HA installation naturally includes analysis and consultancy services,
with the aim of perfect understanding of your site, and so of an implementation
of the solution in the best conditions.
The analysis can be completed by additional consultancy services so as to introduce organisational changes, before of after commissioing, configuration changes, or any other aspect always with the objective of improving and optimising the management of your high availability project
as a whole.
STAGE 1 : Configuration of your site
This stage allows us to validate the hardware configuration of your backup system,
so that this can receive all the applications in the replication process,
and accommodate the users in the event of a switch. We analyse the following points
- Production and backup system hardware configurations : Disk space / Adapters
- Communication configurations
Additional services
- Partitioned systems
- Performance
STAGE 3 : Analysis of Switch conditions
Finally this stage allows the changeover procedure to be determined
Your needs and your wishes :
- Matching your wishes and compliance with hardware/ software / constraints
- your site communications
Matching to the site configuration
Application constraints :
- Management of logging on the target system
Operational procedure for switch to backup system
Operational procedure for return to production
Roll-swap
STAGE 2 : Analysis of your applications
The objective of this second step is to understand the organisation of your applications
and to prepare, if this has not already been done, the implementation of logging.
Analysis of applications :
-- Libraries concerned / Grouping by application
- Logging active ?
- External links ? (EDI, ...)
- Taking into account problems realted to software keys and versions
Organisation of logging with a view to replication :
STAGE 1 : Configuration of your site
We analyse the following points
