The SUSE Linux Enterprise High Availability Extension provides a solid and well-integrated foundation for deploying highly available services, including Web farms, databases, application servers or virtualization environments.
Such distributed setups present unique challenges not encountered on a single node. This tutorial will provide a guide to the most common issues encountered during configuration and design, such as fencing, networking, dependencies and many others.

Sql Server High Availability & DR TechnologiesRockSolid SQL
There are many different disaster recovery and high availability options for SQL Server. Making decisions on the most effective DR & HA strategies can be complex, especially when you throw into the mix various SAN and network topologies.
This presentation is focused on the management and operational decisions that are made when planning DR and HA for production SQL Server environments. It is targeted towards Senior DBAs, CIO, IT Manager, database services managers.
Topics include:
Log Shipping
Database Mirroring
Always On High Availability groups
Replication

Always On - Wydajność i bezpieczeństwo naszych danych - High Availability SQL...SQLExpert.pl
SQL Server 2012 udostępnia zupełnie nowe spojrzenie na zagadnienia związanie z Wysoką dostępnością (High Avability). Najbardziej oczekiwaną nową funkcjonalnością jest AlwaysOn.
W trakcie sesji chcemy pokazać praktyczne zastosowanie AlwaysOn, odpowiadając na pytania:
• Co daje AlwaysOn czego nie było do tej pory
• W jakim stopniu AlwaysOn może zastąpić mirroring oraz logshiping
• Jak zbudować High Avability na potrzeby naszej organizacji
• Jak efektywnie skorzystać z wielu replik danych.
• Czym jest AlwaysOn Failover Cluster
W ramach sesji przedstawiona będzie koncepcja budowy rozwiązania spełniające oczekiwania w zakresie High Avability, dotyczące wydajności jak i bezpieczeństwa naszych danych, a także zgodne z potrzebami Distaster Recovery.
A basic overlook for some configurations when running SQL Server, SSRS and SSAS. Some configurations are also when the services are ran on the same stand alone server. There are also basic hardware considerations.
Compact, high-performing servers and streamlined software are a necessity for any data center that provides multi-tier hosted Web solutions, cloud services, or other scale-out implementations. Customers need quick access to Web applications that power their business, and the databases that power those Web applications. In our tests, we found that the Dell PowerEdge C6220 server with an open-source LAMP software stack was able to complete up to 38,793 orders per minute for one Web site, 79,759 orders per minute for two Web sites, and 119,758 orders per minute for four Web sites – all while providing the flexibility, efficiency, and maintenance features that large-scale deployments require.
Rackspace has years of experience with running Xen at scale, starting with Xen and migrating to XenServer. We will share why we use Xen/XenServer along with some of the issues that we've experienced. We will touch on our experience with migrating from Xen to XenServer and the challenges there. We will share information about Rackspace Cloud Servers architecture, and touch briefly on OpenStack when doing so. We will explain how we use Xen to quickly deploy new Openstack services with what we call Nova on Nova. And finally, we will discuss what additional features and improvements are needed and why.

Topics:
- common problems encountered by users
- error logs and trace files
- recovery and escalation procedures
Oracle Automatic Storage Management has proven to be one of the most widely adopted new features in Oracle Database 10g and it has been dramatically improved in the later 11g releases. This presentation will explain what changes are solved by ASM, how these challenges are solved, what barriers there are to ASM adoptions, and how 11g Release 2 addresses these barriers.

Building a Two Node SLES 11 SP2 Linux Cluster with VMwaregeekswing
Linux clustering is one of the most cost-effective way to have redundant servers serving your applications. In this document we show you how to build a two node cluster using SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) utilizing a virtual environment (ESXi 4) as your testing ground. You can check for more info at our website:

Building High Availability Clusters with SUSE Linux Enterprise High Availabil...Novell
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server High Availability Extension provides a range of modules that can be assembled in multiple ways to build high availability clusters to host your critical business services. This session will examine some of the most common solutions and discuss best practices for setting up a new cluster.
More in detail, this session will discuss in a second step how to prepare a cluster with the SUSE Linux Enterprise High Availability Extension to make an SAP application highly available as certified by Novell and SAP. This scenario is not only from interest for companies looking into making their SAP environment highly available, but also for those that want to migrate from Unix to the SUSE Linux Enterprise platform.
High Availability can be a curiously nebulous term, and most people probably don't care about it until they can't access their online banking service, or their plane crashes.
This presentation examines some of the considerations necessary when building highly available computer systems, then focuses on the HA infrastructure software currently available from the Corosync/OpenAIS, Linux-HA and Pacemaker projects.
Originally presented at Linux Users Victoria in April 2010 (http://luv.asn.au/2010/04/06)
With compelling new features in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server—and the stellar workgroup services found in Novell Open Enterprise Server 2—the benefits of moving your Novell GroupWise environment to Linux are more readily apparent than ever. This session will cover how you can use available Novell tools to move a GroupWise system to the Linux platform. In addition to tools and utilities, we'll share practical tips, tricks and demonstrations.
File Access in Novell Open Enterprise Server 2 SP2Novell
This session offers a consolidated view of the various file access protocols (NCP, Novell CIFS, AFP, FTP and Samba) supported in Novell Open Enterprise Server 2 Service Pack 2. We'll also cover the ways in which they can be combined and deployed in order to meet different file access needs. You'll learn about the features and capabilities of each protocol, as well as deployment aspects—such as clustering, auditing and performance—common to them all.
XPDS16: libvirt and Tools: What's New and What's Next - James Fehlig, SUSEThe Linux Foundation
A year has passed since the last Xen Developer Summit and it is time to announce the quiet progress made on the libvirt libxl driver and related tooling. New features include memory, cpu, block device, and network interface statistics reporting, support for pvUSB, support for migration stream V2, peer-to-peer migration, UEFI for HVM guests via OVMF, and domain capabilities reporting to name a few. There are also many noteworthy improvements such as better conversion of xl.cfg to/from libvirt domXML, allowing users to easily switch between the xl+libxl and libvirt+libxl toolstacks.
The summit also provides an opportunity to discuss new proposals such as better control of domain placement on NUMA systems, exposing Xen's cpu pool feature in libvirt, supporting non-volatile memory for UEFI variables, and improved capabilities reporting.
Much of libvirt's value for Xen is in the tools built upon it: virt-manager, virt-viewer, virt-install, virt-builder, kimchi, OpenStack nova, etc. These tools also deserve a quick status update as they relate to Xen.
The audience is encouraged to participate, e.g. by requesting a sorely missing feature, warning of an upcoming Xen change that may affect libvirt, or simply suggesting a change that makes virtualization management life a bit easier.

Shining the Enterprise Light on Shades of SocialNovell
2010 has brought an explosion of new social tools to the market, creating a drone of news and conversation that artificially singles out “social” as a stand-alone solution—and for enterprises, a solution to what? When you peel back the category “social,” what capabilities are we really talking about and which ones are missing when it comes to forming a solution that can truly help people in the workplace be more effective?
Learn how to cut through the noise and gain a framework for thinking about the relevance of new tools to their workplace objectives and workplace realities.
