Managing Serviceguard Extension for SAP, December 2007

SAP Master Data Management (MDM)
Installation and Configuration Considerations
Chapter 5258
Creating an initial Serviceguard package for the MDB
Component
The following steps will depend if the MDM Database will be configured
as “Single” or “Multiple” MDM Serviceguard package configurations as
described earlier. An “initial” Serviceguard package means that initially
only the storage volumes, the file systems and the virtual IP address will
be configured as a Serviceguard package. The goal is just to provide a file
system for the installation of the database software. At a later step the
SGeSAP specific scripts will be added to the package. Depending on the
goal chose either option:
• (a) = Single MDM Serviceguard package - create a mgroupMDM
package.
• (b) = Multiple MDM Serviceguard packages - create a mdbMDM
package
At this stage the steps in option (a) or (b) are the same. Only the package
name is different – the storage volume used is the same in both cases.
