Summary :
This SAP Note provides guidance on implementing Linux High Availability Cluster Solutions for SAP systems. It covers prerequisites, supported platforms (SLES and RHEL), and the integration of specific HA solutions like OpenAIS, Pacemaker, and Heartbeat. The note underscores SAP's policy on support: SAP does not support third-party cluster software directly but will support its applications within properly configured cluster environments. For optimal integration, SAP advises consulting with knowledgeable partners. The documentation also highlights the HA capabilities supported by SUSE Linux Enterprise Server and the integration with Netweaver Kernel 720, including configurations for different setups (physical, XEN/KVM, VMware). Recommendations for resource-specific setups and further information from relevant whitepapers and technical documents are provided to ensure successful implementation and support continuity.
