Split Merge
Policy Setting Split Merge Approach
Manual   Manual steps needed for recovery to continue
Tie Breaker   Tie break Holder side wins
Majority Rule  Greater of N/2 side wins

Else, side that includes node with the smallest node id
wins
Priority  Operator chooses a numerical value such as “largest
serial number”

Manual (operator controlled failover)
 Split/Merge Policies
– Administrator prompts
– Cluster will wait for Admin inputs
– Optional Policy: After N prompts allow auto-
recovery
– Custom action scripts can invoked at the
time of split or merge as well site down
 Defaults
– Number of prompts (N)=infinite
– Interval between notifications: once in 30 X
seconds and then increasing in frequency
– Auto-Recovery after N prompts

PowerHA AIX: Resource Optimized High Availability
Application
LPAR LPAR LPAR LPAR
Hypervisor Hypervisor
Inactive Pool
CoD Spare Pool
PowerHA Cluster
• PowerHA provides for LPAR resource management during failovers

• Can readjust resources from the free pool
• Can enable CPU and memory as needed using CoD temp for memory
– For on/off CoD, you’ll need to write scripts for now
• Power Enterprise Pools option-both processors and memory are moveable
– Operator initiated via HMC command line or via custom scripts to automate

PowerHA on AIX with DLPAR cost savings example
U.S. example actual results may vary by country
• PowerHA and AIX are priced per processor core (license only the cores being used in the cluster)
• Taking advantage of the DLPAR technology in the example topology:
– Assume 770 cluster, 7 AIX and 7 PowerHA
– PowerHA price: 5,000/core = $35,000…..75,000 – 35,000 = savings: $40,000
– AIX price: 2145/core + 530/core = 2675/core = $40,125 – $21,400…..savings: $18,725
– Total savings….$58,725
Session summary
PowerHA V7 is integrated
CAA for robust integrated management
Industry unique capabilities
PowerHA V7 is multi-site
Industry exclusive capabilities
Stretch clustering and Linked clustering
HyperSwap for continuously available configurations
PowerHA is economical
DLPAR and Enterprise Pools – minimize redundant resource
