1 Metrocluster with Continuous Access EVA P6000 for Linux Version B.01.00.00 Release Notes Announcements Metrocluster with Continuous Access EVA P6000 for Linux is a Hewlett-Packard high availability product for Serviceguard customers requiring integrated disaster recovery solutions with HP EVA P6000 Series. Metrocluster with Continuous Access EVA P6000 for Linux Version B.01.00.
Support for Enhanced Asynchronous Replication Mode Metrocluster for Linux supports Enhanced Asynchronous write mode with P6000/EVA arrays. In this mode, the host receives an I/O completion acknowledgement after the data is successfully written to the disk based log/journal, which is used to queue the writes, which occurs after the data is written to the local cache. The asynchronous replication process reads the I/O from the journal and replicates it, using current methodologies, to destination P6000/EVA.
Support for failover polices site_preferred and site_preferred_manual Metrocluster for Linux supports Serviceguard failover policies: site_preferred and site_preferred_manual. These failover policies are supported for failover packages configured in a Metrocluster with sites defined in the Serviceguard cluster configuration file.
