  • 1.  HADR in using AI manager with omnibus

    Posted Sat June 24, 2023 02:59 PM

    In using deployment scenario 5 (AI Manager and on-premises Netcool OMNIbus/Impact) in the following link: Deployment scenarios . Can DB2 HADR be applied in that case? and how can that be applied?

    Anywhere DB2 can be used, it is possible to use DB2 HADR. However, it always has some caveats. Specifically, the prescribed way to implement DB2 HADR involves the use of TSAM, and that configuration will shut down the primary DB2 server host of any problem is encountered. This will bring down the entire server and all databases (and other processes) running on it. The care and feeding of that configuration (upgrades, etc.) can be pretty painful.

    If you are familiar with TSAM and DB2 HADR, go for it. Simply follow the DB2 documentation for setting it up. All access to the database will be made through the service IP. If you haven't set this up before, you should do a lot of research and testing before you move forward. 

    I should mention that we at Gulfsoft can help with projects like this, including producing the operational runbooks required to maintain it.

    Can there be an HADR for the AI manager itself?

    From the documentation, a Medium Instance or larger gives you High Availability: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/watson-aiops/2.0?topic=overview-prerequisites-requirements-ai-manager#medium_instance
