2084.0. "BAAN aplications are Trucluster Production Server aware ?" by VAXRIO::LEO () Fri May 23 1997 09:02

    Hi,
    
    	Are BAAN applications Trucluster Production Server aware ?
    
    	So far I know that I can build Trucluster Available Server scripts
    to implement high available BAAN environment.
    
    	I have already the "Implementing Baan Applications with DEC Safe
    ASE" document.
    
    	I have heard and read that BAAN applications were ready to use 
    TCR Production Server making use of Memory Channel. BAAN applications
    can understand (or implement themselves) the DLM mechanisms needed to
    be considered as a TCR Production Server aware applications ?
    
	This enformation is very important in order to have a technology 
    differential against our main competitors at ERP arena.
    
    	Thanks in advance.
    
    	Best regards,

    Baan IV was tested in a TruCluster Production Server environment using
    Oracle Parallel Server. It works and is supported, but performs very
    poorly. Therefor Baan suggests not to use it for performance reasons.
    If one wants to use it for availability reasons it is suggested to
    over-configure the system by at least 25% and to contact the CTC.
