Running a large-scale data center is a Herculean task these days. Increasingly complex systems, the storage of a daily growing amount of data, day-to-day management and the need to scale or build out new facilities have planners and managers in a constant state of flux. Once thought of as just a room or building for computer systems, the data center is becoming an increasingly vital part of the company's success or failure. Ensure maximum application availability and data recoverability is paramount to a successful business. In today's enterprise, downtime costs money, and a simple outage can result in hours of work and business lost. Data and system reliability and availability are key concerns for IT decision makers.
SUSE Linux Enterprise from Novell can play a key role in improving data storage and reducing downtime.

Running SAP on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10: High Availability Storage Infrastructure +
March 2007
Because SAP* software typically provides mission-critical services, your company's business may be disrupted if your SAP software becomes unavailable. To avoid such disruptions, you can implement a high-availability solution that is based on certain cluster software packages. These cluster software packages monitor the status of SAPrelated components (including the services required by the SAP software), detect- problems and initiate- fail-over to a redundant server infrastructure if necessary. As an enterprise-class Linux distribution, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 from Novell not only includes such cluster software packages with the advanced features required to make SAP highly available, but integrates them to a complete and utilizable solution. |
