RE: Mirror / Raw device / Informix
Muthana-
In order to use redundant drives on your server: in your
onconfig file, change MIRROR 0 to MIRROR 1, then bounce your
database. You may then use onspaces -m to mirror your dbspaces. Read
the manual first. For replication across servers, Informix has built in
high availability data replication (master - slave only) and enterprise
replication (can be configured in many different ways). Both are free
in enterprise edition. High availability requires an additional license
for workgroup edition. Enterprise replication is not allowed in
workgroup edition.

Subject: Mirror / Raw device / Informix
Dear IIUG,
I would like to ask if I can do a mirror of my database which is
installed on raw device into the 2 server by using mirror technology.
I heart that this solution won't work with Informix but I'm not sure
therefore I asked the question on IIUG.
Is there any tool by Informix can help me to mirror the database of my
raw device?
Are there anyway to build redundant system for my database server?
I used Informix 10.0 and as OS Suse Enterprice Linux Sever 9
Any help will be grateful
Regards,
Muthana AL-Temimi
