    Hello ABBAS,

    PowerHA has Smart Assist to handle Db2 HA. And that can be further extended for DR with storage based replication.

    PowerHA Smart assist details for Db2 HA can be found in below link:

    Hi JES KIRAN

    Thanks for your response.

    We use DB2 HADR to have synchronised standby database open on read only mode to avoid heavy workload on primary database, that's not possible with PowerHA only. I would lika that PowerHA manage VIP and monitor HADR replication/database roles.

    So, i found one old IBM paper (https://community.ibm.com/community/user/datamanagement/viewdocument/automating-ibm-db2-udb-hadr-with-ha?CommunityKey=ea909850-39ea-4ac4-9512-8e2eb37ea09a&tab=librarydocuments) , i dont't know if there any new one ?

    Thanks a lot for help.

    Hello ABBAS,

    It is old paper and not valid with recent versions.
