MCCS is a high availability solution that ensures the service keep online of the system when meet the downtime events whether caused by failures within the system, network, application and storage, or planned downtime such as hardware or software update.
Therefore, before online an application service after all the installation and configuration are completed, few steps shown below should be done to check if MCCS meets the objectives.
Types of Fault | Test List | Test Result |
Power Off | Power Off | Failover to the standby server. |
System OS Shutdown | System OS Shutdown | Failover to the standby server. |
Network Card Failure | Remove network cable | Re-check the connectivity to active server defined counts or failover to standby server. (Possible to specify the counts) |
Disk Failure | Remove Disk | Failover to standby server. |
Database Service Failure | Stop Database | Re-start failed service on local (Possible to specify the counts) or failover to standby server. |
Operation Process Failure | Stop Operating Process | Re-start failed process on local (Possible to specify the counts) or failover to standby server. |
Test list above should be done in condition where resource group is created, and resource dependency is configured.
Please refer to "MCCS Manual" for more details about how to create group and resources.
In addition, please refer to"Chapter8. Administrating after failure" of MCCS Manual for more details about various faults that might occur and how to solve those problems.
