EBS R12 Standby Apps tier sync

Primary Application tier is connected to Primary database and Standby Application tier is connected to Standby database.

Now we need to sync in standby Apps tier with Primary Apps tier.


There are two ways to consider sync of filesystem from primary to standby node.
 Rsync command can be kept in crontab to continuouly write the changes on stanndby
Method 1:
1) Enabled full filesystem sync from Primary to Standby Application Tier
2) Whenever you perform a DR switch, rename standby Application Servers hostname to primary application hosts.
3) Also, perform changes in DNS as well

Method 2:
1) Enabled sync of Run Filesystem and FS_NE
2) Whenever you perform a DR switch run adcfgclone.pll on AppsTier to reconfigure Apps.
3) Perform any post configuration steps like WF Configuration, Update paths,etc.,

Method 2 is little complex as this need thorough testing specifically for post steps. Method 1 doesn't is much simpler and faster to bring up Apps incase of any disaster.
