[Disaster recovery] Moving the Essbase server to another physical server

kent_Oct 21 2013 — edited Nov 1 2013

Hi All,

I have 3 Solaris servers part of the EPM 11.1.2.1 environment:

Server1.company.com:

Foundation services, APS, EAS

Server2.company.com:

Essbase Server, Essbase Studio Server.
Installation done on a SAN disk using user ID hypadmin

Server3.company.com:

*Nothing installed here*.
Its the standby server in case Server2 goes down.

Note: I couldn't find any documentation for my below approach... So please understand the risk involved before attempting the same.
Pre-disaster recovery:

I copy the home directory of hypadmin from Server2 to Server3.

During disaster recovery:

I update the Essbase server host name from Server2.company.com to Server3.company.com and similarly update the opmn.xml file.
Finally mount the SAN onto Server2 and start up the services.

Has anyone done the same..? Have you faced any issues? Is there a better way of doing this?

Thanks

Regards,

Kent
