DR Scheduler will be Primary as it appears to be a standalone (non-HA) configuration. You need to be very wary of the DR and Prod (DC) sharing the databases, because at any given point in time, there can only be one Primary Scheduler running. As long as DR Scheduler doesn't beat DC Primary to it, it is okay, but still risky business. Ensure the DC Primary is completely shutdown before bringing DR Scheduler up, but in case of a true/real DR situation, this could be challenging.
As for the Agent communication with DR scheduler, the default WAAE compatibility mode allows the System Agent to serve any Scheduler dynamically. So, one need not worry about additional Agent configuration. You need to ensure the firewall rules allow for DR to Agent communication, though.
From the doco:
Lock the Scheduling Managers Defined on the Agent
A scheduling manager can send a message to the agent to add its connection properties dynamically to the agentparm.txt file. You can configure the agent to lock the scheduling managers that are defined in its agentparm.txt file and prevent any new scheduling manager additions.
Follow these steps:
- Change to the agent installation directory.
- Stop the agent.
- Open the agentparm.txt file.
Set the following parameter:
communication.manager.dynamic.modifications.lock=true
- Save and close the agentparm.txt file.
- Start the agent.
The agent does not allow the addition of any new scheduling managers. Existing scheduling managers that are defined on the agent are not affected.
Hope this helps.
I'm curious to see how people handle this in the real world.
