workloads, such as Oracle RAC. Complex workloads are applications that are configured
using multiple interdependent failover and multi-node packages.
For more information on configuring complex workloads using SADTA with
Continentalclusters, see chapter 2 of the Designing Disaster Recovery HA Clusters using
Metrocluster and Continentalclusters available at: www.hp.com/go/

Support for Oracle RAC ASM using SADTA
Starting with Continentalclusters version A.08.00, Oracle RAC database using Automatic
Storage Management (ASM) can be configured in Continentalclusters using Site Aware
Disaster Tolerant Architecture (SADTA).
Following restrictions apply while configuring Oracle RAC database using ASM in
Continentalclusters using SADTA:
• The ASM disk group must be configured with a multi-node package using SGeRAC
toolkit. This ASM disk group multi-node package (MNP) must be configured to have
a package dependency on the CRS MNP package to be up on the same node.
• The RAC database MNP package must be configured to have a package dependency
on the ASM disk group MNP package and CRS MNP package to be up on the
same node.
For more information on configuring Oracle RAC database with ASM in
Continentalclusters using SADTA, see Designing Disaster Recovery HA Clusters Using
Metrocluster and Continentalclusters, April 2011 (5900-1484) available at http://
