Redeirected restore database server
A user on IDS 10.0FC8 reported that an instance created via a redirected restore could not later be made an HDR primary — a colleague traced it to some flag/setting in the reserved pages blocking the operation — and asked whether there was a good reason for the restriction. The only reply was a jokey request for the exact error message, which the poster couldn't supply since a colleague hit the problem. No explanation, workaround or resolution is recorded in the thread.

IDS 10.0FC8 We've notoced that a database server which was originally created by dint of a re-directed restore cannot subsequently be turned into an HDR primary, because of some setting in the reserved pages. This is a right royal pain in the arse for some testing we're doing. Is there a good reason for it? rgds -- Neil Truby t:01932 724027 Director m:07798 811708 Ardenta Limited e:neil.truby@ardenta.com

What message does it come back with when you try to make it into a primary?

Yes, well, Well Done, it's been very effective. >> What message does it come back with when you try to make it into a >> primary? Actually I'm not sure because it is one of my colleagues whio's having the problem, but he won't post to cdi because no-one ever answers him! Whereas I have you answer mine, Dave ;-) I guess some sort of "Operation Not Successful" message. Another colleague found a setting in the reserved pages which is stopping the operation. Or something.
