Chapter 12: Configuring Adaptive Server for Failover on Windows

Installing Adaptive Servers

Install both the primary and secondary Adaptive Servers. Do not use the machine name as the Adaptive Server name.

The primary companion can be either a newly installed Adaptive Server, or it can be upgraded from an earlier version of Adaptive Server with existing databases, users, and so on.

The secondary companion must be a newly installed Adaptive Server without any user logins or user databases. This ensures that all user logins and database names are unique within the cluster. After configuration for failover is complete, you can add user logins and databases to the secondary companion.

Place all data and log devices (including the master and sybsystemprocs devices) on dedicated shared disks, and the corresponding cluster resources must be in a dedicated Microsoft Cluster Server group (MSCS).

If you are installing on the local disk, make sure any databases are created on the shared disk.
