From where can i get SGeRAC for evaluation?.

I would like to check whether there is any way to get SGeRAC 11.18 for evaluation/testing with limited period license?.
I am in need of it for a testing for 2 weeks.

Thanks,
Ratheesh

Hi,

It is not available for download as for as I know.

You can probably check with HP if you have software contract.
Best wishes,

Ganesh.

Is this (SGeRAC) comes as part of the standard core os media or this has to be purchased as a separate media (cd/DVD)?

Hello,

you definitely need a license to get / use this software. If your company is a HP partner, you are eligible for getting the software for free for your internal use - be sure to read the license conditions under which it is provided.

If this is the case, you can order the media at HP DSPP website.

You can download the oracle Clusterware and Oracle Database software from the oracle web site but the SGeRAC and CFS software is purchasable. (I assume you would be using CFS for the storage or SLVM).

HP teaches a course where the RAC environment is covered.

You need to have a registered company login (HP Partner). If you have that, you can order HPUX media set for partners. The SGeSAP and SGeRAC software is on the Applications DVD which is part of the set.

Ratheesh,

This isn't going to work by just trawling thru websites as we don't make it available for free - speak to your local HP rep and if he thinks this is a good opportunity for HP they should make a copy available for you - but its going to require you to engage with HP, not just surf websites...

Thank you all for your response.

Jozef_Novak,

As you said, SGeSAP is there in the Applications DVD but SGeRAC is not there.

Thanks,

Shalom,

In answer to your last question, yes it appears to be what you seek.

A better method than searching websites it to contact your HP rep. He or she can provide evaluation software, or a visit to the HP performance center to do evaluation testing.

HP is very motivated to help people that might end up selling software and or hardware.

Ratheesh,

do a swlist of the DVDROM instead of browsing it. For example if you have mounted the media on /dvdrom, do:

#swlist -l product -s /dvdrom

you should see the software in the output. The full name is Serviceguard Extension for RAC.

Then use swinstall to install it, don't forget to check the release notes for required patches or dependencies. If you need an admin guide, it's here:

No it isn't - it's just a toolkit we introduced for standardising the integration of RAC with SGeRAC -0 it doesn't contain the actual components of SGeRAC you need to build a SGeRAC cluster.

I think you've already been given the advice you need here: contact HP and explain the opportunity - they shyould be willing to help out - talking to people on this forum does not constitute "contacting HP" - pick up the phone and call your local HP rep...
