Configuring the Global Cluster Option for wide-area failover
The Global Cluster option is required to manage global clustering for wide-area disaster recovery.
Creating a global cluster environment involves the following:
-
Connecting standalone clusters by adding a remote cluster to a local cluster.
-
Converting the local service group that is common to all the clusters to a global service group.
You need to create a wide-area connector resource for global clusters.
You can use the VCS Java Console to perform global cluster operations; this guide only provides procedures for the Java Console. Refer to the Cluster Server Administrator's Guide for more information on GCO operations available from the Java Console and the command line.
