10.1 OracleAS Disaster Recovery: Introduction

Use the OracleAS Disaster Recovery environment when you want to have two
physically separate sites in your environment. One site is the production site, and the
other site is the standby site. The production site is active, while the standby site is
passive; the standby site becomes active when the production site goes down.
OracleAS Disaster Recovery supports a number of basic topologies for the
configuration of the Infrastructure and middle tier on production and standby sites.
OracleAS Disaster Recovery supports these basic topologies:
Symmetrical topologies -- strict mirror of the production site with collocated
■
Oracle Identity Management and OracleAS Metadata Repository Infrastructure
Asymmetrical topologies -- simple asymmetric standby topology with collocated
■
Oracle Identity Management and OracleAS Metadata Repository Infrastructure
Separate OracleAS Metadata Repository for OracleAS Portal with collocated
■
Oracle Identity Management and OracleAS Metadata Repository Infrastructure
(the Departmental Topology)
Distributed Application OracleAS metadata Repositories with Non collocated
■
Oracle Identity Management and OracleAS Metadata Repository Infrastructure
In a symmetric topology, each node in the standby site corresponds to a node in the
production site. This includes the nodes running both OracleAS Infrastructure and
OracleAS Disaster Recovery
