HACMP vs Service Guard for SAP

[Adamco11]

What do I get extra with SGeSAP that is not available in HACMP, build-in scripts?

[Serviceguard for Linux · Accepted solution]

Here's one answer I got from a colleague. I'm trying to get more detail as well.

"Yes, SGeSAP includes valuable scripts that provide fast highly automated failover of the database AND SAP central instance. Other RISC and x86 based environments do not offer the same level of high availability specifically for SAP that HP Serviceguard with Serviceguard Extension for SAP (SGeSAP) does. With SGeSAP, any system problem results in a straightforward failover of the central instance and database. With Enqueue Services support in SGeSAP even the running transactions can be automatically re-inserted into their SAP processes. Without SGeSAP, the recovery of the SAP application and database environment is manual, slow, and there is no guarantee that transaction integrity will be maintained."

I don't know the HP-UX competition that well but one area to focus on is the enqueue services.
