I have one doubt.

For the solution of moving binaries on the
cluster, how do you install ADSM on a
different directory ?

Every time I install it the filesets go
to the same place ...

It is a lot easier to install it on
both servers and share only
config files, db, log, pools, etc.

regards,
Rodrigo

  ADSM tells where its database volumes are from the
/usr/lpp/adsmserv/bin/dsmserv.dsk
file.  Note that the database volume names are also encoded in the
database, so

you cannot simply just move the volumes around.  (Tried it! :)

  When you do the HA implementation, if you decide to put the binaries on
a
shared disk, the license file will be on the shared disk as well.  As the
implementation
that I've done was on AIX, the cleanest way to keep the file package
management

software (lpp) happy was to keep binaries on both boxes.  If you do this,
remember
to keep the licenses consistent on both sides.
