About setting up a global cluster environment for parallel clusters

Configuring a global cluster for environment with parallel clusters requires the coordination of many component setup tasks. The procedures provided here are guidelines. Refer to your product installation guide for your product installation and basic configuration for each cluster. You will need this guide to configure a global cluster environment and replication between the two configured clusters.

Table: Tasks for setting up a global cluster environment with parallel clusters

Task

Description

Configure a parallel cluster at the primary site

See Configuring the primary site.

Configure an parallel cluster at the secondary site

See Configuring the secondary site.

Configure a global cluster environment

See Setting up replication between parallel global cluster sites.

Test the HA/DR configuration

See Testing a parallel global cluster configuration.

Upon successful testing, you can bring the environment into production

Some configuration tasks may require adjustments depending upon your particular starting point, environment, and configuration: details of your configuration may differ from the examples given in the procedures. Review the installation requirements and sample cluster configuration files for primary and secondary clusters.
