SAP liveCache 7.5 and MaxDB 7.5 on IBM TotalStorage DS 8000 / ESS / SVC

Tags:
storage management

Overview In an SAP SCM environment, liveCache is becoming an increasingly mission critical component. liveCache, like any other database technology, can be provided with a fail-over solution using traditional cluster implementations. An HACMP fail-over solution for liveCache has been available on AIX, and endorsed by SAP, for several years (starting with LC version 7.2). A traditional fail-over solution, where the database disks are taken over by the backup server and the database recovered and restarted, has several disadvantages in a large liveCache implementation. The benefits and performance advantages of liveCache result from its ability to build a very large memory cache and perform specially tailored functions against these in-memory data structures.
