Re: Apps 11.5.9 Disater Recovery Site

Hi!

You can just copy over the Apps filesystem (providing that the directory structures are exactly the same) and relink all executables. This is the easiest way to do it, you don't have to start hacking with adpatch. Rsync should do fine, although I've used regular tar so far.

Note that if you want to start up Apps on your secondary node, then you have either to give it the original hostname (via DNS) or use autoconfig to change Apps hostname (the web links etc) before starting up Apps (note that datbaase has to be open and TWO_TASK has to point to it, so autoconfig can change proper ICX profiles).

Theres a metalink doc Apps disaster recovery: 216212.1 Also you should search for "applications nologging" from metalink to see some issues with nologging operations in Apps.

Tanel.
