Why does the `SAPHana` resource agent erroneously report the System Replication state as SFAIL for the Slave/SECONDARY?
Issue
- This issue happens only in a Multitarget HANA System Replication environment, where there is a 3rd (DR) site which is not managed by Pacemaker and in combination with a version of the
SAPHanaandSAPHanaTopologyresource agents lower than0.162.1. - When the 3rd (DR) site of a Multitarget HANA System Replication is unavailable for some unexpected reason (i.e. network disruption, crash of the system...), the
SAPHanacluster resource marks theSlave/SECONDARYasSFAILand it excludes this node as a possible takeover node, even if the replication fromMaster/PRIMARYtoSlave/SECONDARYworked normally.
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, 8 and 9
- SAP HANA with Multitarget System Replication in Scale-Up environment
- Pacemaker cluster
