MaxDB disaster Recovery site setup

[Former Member]

Hello Experts

We are hosting SAP apllication in our datacentre. For one of our customer we need Disaster Recovery site. As planned by our maneegment we are going to have a DR centre at some other location. Our DC and DR are connected by suffcient link.

My SAP Instance is running ion MaxDB database and RHEL5. Can you please suggest me how I should look forward to set up the DR site?

Can I setup a SAP server in my DR site with same SID server will restore the initial backup from DC and then go for log mirroring? In this case I will have to install SAP system with same SID? IP address?

In my DC for other than SAP application they are going for Storage level mirroring.

Log Shipping or Storage mirroring which method will be more appropriate.

Can I intall two system with same SID one in DC and other IN DR and how can the licensing be done in this case?
