Hi!

I was trying to setup a HADR for the sample database on two servers
under the windows environment.
I am using IBM DB2 9.5 FP "0" and windows server 2003 SP2.
I set up the configuration parameters correctly on both the primary
server and standby server.
First I tried with GUI which run fune till the point it reaches
"update services file".
and then it threw an error which was like javaw.exe : application
error
and then the control center exits.
Then I tried to set up manually .and It run fine till I start primary
server
DB2 start HADR on db SAMPLE as primary
the error it gives is different when I run it different time with RC=1
and RC=99 and RC=8

SQL1767N Start HADR cannot complete. Reason code = "1".

Standby server is running successfully.

can somebody please tell me what I am missing?

Thanks ,
Rakesh

Did you take an online backup of the primary and restore it on the secondary?

this is the explanation for reason code 1

and the user response

I have taken online backup on the Primary server and restored it on Standby.
Now I am getting the error with reason code:99
All I can find on Info center is :
An internal error occurred during HADR startup.

after the restore and setting all db cfg settings - hadr should be started on standby - when this is finished - start hadr on primary that will contact the standby--
the standby db should always be in rollforward state - to apply the log from primary - have a look at info center for details about hadr scenario
