Any of you guys/gals using HP's CA (Continuous Access) product to replicate LUNs to a remote location?
We tested it on several of our LUNS (non-clustered servers) and it seemed to work well.
HOWEVER, when we turned it on for our Oracle Failsafe Cluster (Microsoft Clustering), our Cluster became non-responsive.
We're only replicating our backup drive (non-datafiles, non-quorum lun). The backup LUN (Z:\ drive) is a resource within the cluster but I cannot think of why the cluster might have become unstable due to this issue.
We tried failing the cluster over and it would not fail over.
So I was curious if anyone was using the CA product on a Microsoft Cluster and if you had any thoughts on "gotchas" or things to consider when replicating resource LUNS?
Thanks
