Hi SAPpers,
we have a reasonable size SAP landscape and our developers do a lot of WebDynPro developments for Portal.
We are now beginning to integrate CE with NWDI too, but that's a separate story.
My point is, in our SAP Landscape we have ONE NWDI installed.
We've just had basically a system down for NWDI for the last 10 days and it has shown us what a single point of failure NWDI is, because, as we have only one NWDI, if it is down, Developers cannot work, and transports cannot be completed.
Therefore, my question,
What does everyone else do about this ?
Should we have a second NWDI, as a warm standby, where, if we lose the main NWDI we then configure the tracks in the standby NWDI and get the Developers to work against that one while we fix the primary NWDI ?
Is there any guidance from SAP on how many NWDI's to have in a SAP Landscape to stop the NWDI becoming a single point of failure ?
Others, please be aware of the risks and consequence of only one NWDI in a SAP Landscape.
Thanks and regards,
Petr.
