Hi MaxDB People
Here is my second post/question. Hopefully somebody can help me out here.
I've installed a MaxDB database, and performed a Database migration from Oracle to create a SAP Java ADS instance called AQ3.
We use HP Service guard clusters, to allow us to move instances around between server nodes. Because if this, I have configured the file systems for the database and software as follows:
Node 1 (where the original install took place)
<Local to the server node>
/sapdb
/sapdb/data
/sapdb/programs
/sapdb/clients
<Installed as a movable package called 'sapaq3' and mounted in bold>
/sapdb/AQ3/ <and all subsequent directories>
/sapdb/client/AQ3<and all subsequent directories>
/usr/sap/AQ3
/sapmnt/AQ3
On the original server node this instance runs just fine.
Node 2
I installed the MaxDB software again locally
/sapdb
/sapdb/data
/sapdb/programs
/sapdb/clients
I then moved the package 'sapaq3' to run on node 2
/sapdb/AQ3/ <and all subsequent directories>
/sapdb/client/AQ3<and all subsequent directories>
/usr/sap/AQ3
/sapmnt/AQ3
I started the x_server from /sapdb/AQ3/db/bin
When I try to start the database however, I am getting the following error message:
dbmcli -d AQ3 -u control,xxxxxxxx db_online
Error! Connection failed to node (local) for database AQ3:
database instance not found
I'm thinking there must be some need for a database registration on node 2, so that the central software knows about the database that has been previously installed elsewhere. I tried the sdbreg command but I am still getting the error.
Does anyone have any idea what the issue could be?
Thanks everyone.
