Abstract
Various systems and methods for implementing site-level sub-cluster dependencies are disclosed. One such method involves initiating failover of a first service group from a first cluster site to a second cluster site. The first service group includes one or more resources of an application. The method then identifies at least one dependent service group at the first cluster site. The dependent service group is either a parent or a child of the first service group. The method then involves initiating failover of the dependent service group from the first cluster site to the second cluster site.
Claims18
A method comprising:
- initiating failover of a first service group from a first cluster site to a second cluster site, wherein
- the first service group is one of a plurality of service groups associated with a multi-tier application, and
- each service group of the plurality of service groups comprises a respective set of components associated with a respective tier of the multi-tier application,
- the first cluster site is geographically remote from the second cluster site, and
- the first service group comprises one or more resources of a first tier of the multi-tier application;
- identifying at least one dependent service group at the first cluster site, wherein
- the at least one dependent service group is one of a parent or child of the first service group;
- initiating failover of the at least one dependent service group from the first cluster site to the second cluster site.
A computer readable storage medium comprising program instructions executable to:
- initiate failover of a first service group from a first cluster site to a second cluster site, wherein
- the first service group is one of a plurality of service groups associated with a multi-tier application,
- each service group of the plurality of service groups comprises a respective set of components associated with a respective tier of the multi-tier application,
- the first cluster site is geographically remote from the second cluster site, and
- the first service group comprises one or more resources of a first tier of the multi-tier application;
- identify at least one dependent service group at the first cluster site, wherein
- the at least one dependent service group is one of a parent or child of the first service group;
- initiate failover of the at least one dependent service group from the first cluster site to the second cluster site.
A system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- a memory coupled to the one or more processors, wherein the memory stores program instructions executable by the one or more processors to:
- initiate failover of a first service group from a first cluster site to a second cluster site, wherein
- the first service group is one of a plurality of service groups associated with a multi-tier application,
- each service group of the plurality of service groups comprises a respective set of components associated with a respective tier of the multi-tier application,
- the first cluster site is geographically remote from the second cluster site, and
- the first service group comprises one or more resources of a first tier of the multi-tier application;
- identify at least one dependent service group at the first cluster site, wherein
- the at least one dependent service group is one of a parent or child of the first service group;
- initiate failover of the at least one dependent service group from the first cluster site to the second cluster site.
