But when package is stopping, they don`t care about debug mode.

I have package attempting to stop SAP & Oracle while debug exist.

It`s correct?

[Srikanth Arunachalam]

Hi,

Its correct. When debug file is present it skips monitoring function and SAP specific runtime steps, it has got no impact on the cluster package stop/start.

Thanks,
Srikanth

Why package don`t skip stopinng SAP&Oracle application?

[Srikanth Arunachalam]

Hi Ravil,

When you put on debug file, it does not stop the package due to stopping of application like Oracle or SAP. The debug file is also referred as maintenance flag. We use this debug file when we do not want a cluster failover to standby node in the event of stopping of SAP/Oracle.

Thanks,
Srikanth
