Consider the following before you proceed:
You can configure application monitoring on a virtual machine using the High Availability Configuration wizard for VMware. The wizard is launched when you click on the High Availability tab in VMware vSphere Client.
Apart from the High Availability Configuration wizard, you can also configure application monitoring using the Cluster Server (VCS) commands. For more information, refer to the Cluster Server Administrator's Guide.
recommends that you first configure application monitoring using the wizard before using VCS commands to add additional components or modify the existing configuration.
Apart from configuring application availability, the wizard also sets up the other components required for successful application monitoring.
For Oracle, the High Availability Configuration wizard:
You must not suspend a system if an application is currently online on that machine. If you suspend a system, VCS moves the disks along with the application to another system. Later, when you try to restore the suspended system, VMware does not allow the operation because the disks that were attached before the system was suspended are no longer with the system. To suspend a virtual machine, ensure that the application being monitored is not online on that system.
