With these flexible scripting features, application failover using Storage Mirroring can
be seamless to the end user. HP tests many of the popular applications on the market
today. The results of these testing procedures are written up into formal Application
Notes that describe how Storage Mirroring should be configured to work correctly with
certain applications, including scripting examples. For a complete list of Storage
Mirroring Application Notes, visit the HP web site.
NOTE:
If your target is a cluster, you need to repeat these steps to establish failover monitoring
on all nodes of the cluster, so that any node that could be the owning node of the target
cluster will be monitoring the source.
