Database Mirroring Idea

Former Member

Hi Senseis

I was thinking about this concept and I want to know if someone else think the same idea before. As I say in other Thread, I will use database mirroring on top of MSCS to protect our systems. The mirror site will be in Miami and the primary in Cancun, Mexico. In the documentation says that the distance and bandwitch is essential for the succed of this configuration, so I will implement the high performance method. But (and is here where I want to know your opinions), if I recreate my production enviorement in the mirror site (I mean everything, disk distribution, SID, NSID, everything), apply the DB Mirroring and, in case of crash in my production site, just redirect the traffic to my mirror site... this will work?

Thanks for your help

I could imagine using a name in the SAPLogon to connect to the original system. If it fails you change one DNS entry to point to the other system and it should work.

But there are other things to consider:

- printers

- interfaces to other systems (BW)

- mounted file systems

Those need to be made aware too of the fact, that the systems IP changed.
