Integrated Cluster solution on AIX: Move from TSA to PowerHA

DB2 has moved from TSA (Tivoli System Automation for Multiplatforms) to Pacemaker as integrated clustering solution on Linux. We use TSA in production, and we think this is a wise move, as TSA is not robust and manageable enough for a dependable solution.

AIX, however, seems very dependable to us. To make it possible to build the best possible DB2 environment (from a robustness perspective), AIX on Power seems a logical choice and should be supported by a solid integrated clustering solution.

Therefore we strongly support the idea to move away from TSA in AIX towards PowerHA, as PowerHA has a very strong track record providing a tried and tested highly available environment. From our experience it also surpasses Pacemaker easily and should be the first choice for building the most resilient DB2 setups.

In the end TSA as integrated clustering solution could be deprecated completely and the respectively best implementation per OS could be used to build a strong base for DB2, especially Purescale.
