You can use dbcloudadd or the cloud console to indicate that a particular database is used infrequently and should be marked as autostartable. When you do so, that database is left stopped in the cloud and the database will automatically be started when a connection for that database comes in. The database will then be autostopped after the last connection to the database has dropped. You can even configure how long the cloud waits after the last connection before stopping the database. This autostart feature works even when the cloud needs to redirect the connection.Karim Khamishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14109679413941468887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-497787815177352569.post-69923727992874333082013-10-23T14:07:39.289-04:002013-10-23T14:07:39.289-04:00Step 10:

The connection request simply needs to make it to one of the servers running in the cloud. After that, the cloud software will automatically redirect the connection request to a server running the database. This is important in the case of large clouds where the cloud administrator may decide to move databases around due to size, usage patterns, etc. The client need never know that the database is no longer on the same server or host it was the last time a connection was established.Karim Khamishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14109679413941468887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-497787815177352569.post-49737896847612102502013-10-23T14:03:11.238-04:002013-10-23T14:03:11.238-04:00Step 6:

Additional parameters on the dbcloudadd executable allow the user to use a search query or explicit set of servers to inform the cloud exactly where a database should be added. This is important for large clouds that span across the world. In such a case you may have geographical or other restrictions that require the database to be placed on one of a specific set of servers.Karim Khamishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14109679413941468887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-497787815177352569.post-4781634200615528792013-10-23T13:59:36.150-04:002013-10-23T13:59:36.150-04:00Step 4b: Create The Additional 4 Servers using the...Step 4b: Create The Additional 4 Servers using the Cloud Console<br />- Connect to the cloud using the cloud console<br />- Click on Servers<br />- Click on Create<br />- Choose the host and set the count to 4<br />- Click on finish to have all 4 servers created for youKarim Khamishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14109679413941468887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-497787815177352569.post-19434487543770459752013-10-17T11:20:24.805-04:002013-10-17T11:20:24.805-04:00Step 3b (work-around for failed usage server check...Step 3b (work-around for failed usage server check) should now be a thing of the past! <br /><br />We have refreshed the software available on the download site so that it not longer performs this check.
